I love decorating for the holidays. I always have. Every year, I put up several villages atop one of our bookcases. One of those villages is a “Halloween Town” that I started several years ago and add to every single year. This year, while putting out the village, I thought “Why not tell the stories […]

NaNoWriMo
I guess now would be a good time to announce that I have taken steps to join the National Novel Writing Month that takes place every November. I have always thought of doing this, but never really took any steps to even do more than try to participate. I am also stepping out of my […]
Dealing with Doubts
Occasionally, I have one of those days where it seems I can’t shake a fog. I suffer, quite often, from self doubt. I fight off the feelings that I am not good enough. I fight off feelings that I can’t do anything right. I fight, sometimes unsuccessfully, with feelings that no one cares what I […]

Storms in the morning
This morning I was awakened from a deep sleep by a thunderstorm sometime around 430 or 445. I say “sometime” because I am not entirely sure when I was awakened. I did check my fitness watch but the time doesn’t stick in my mind. It’s a detail I can’t recall. But there were so many […]

Not typical fantasy
I’ve had four people who have read my first book in the Portals Series (the one called The Keeper of the Key) tell me that while fantasy isn’t their usual genre, they have all liked my brand of fantasy. Three of them have read at least two of the books. I’m encouraging them to write […]
Find Your Own Happy
I have always preferred to walk instead of drive somewhere, especially if its under a mile. Often, when I have a day off from the full time job, I find myself doing a great deal of walking around the city I live in. It’s my time to think and compose stuff in my head so […]
