Thanks, OCC!
My special thanks to the Orange County Chapter of RWA. I had a fabulous time attending your birthday bash this weekend. What a great bunch you are, and you treated me like a queen. I like that quality in people. :)Today, it's back to work on The Book, which is going...
Another Beautiful Day 2
This weather is so beautiful. I know I keep saying that, but it's true. We're enjoying fall at its very best here in Spokane--bright skies, and the greenest greens. Sunshine, but a medium temperature. I love it. Sadie is off to her day of exercise and acupuncture....
Blue skies, lookin’ at me….
The weather is GORGEOUS today. There simply aren't enough adjectives to describe it. 🙂 Sally's headed back to Oregon as of this morning--Pam left yesterday. It was so much fun to see everybody again.I'm writing Chapter 7 of the new book today, and I'm also reading a...
The Reunion
I got together with the family over the weekend--specifically on Saturday--and it was great, as always. It was your typical family reunion--plenty of little kids running around, Cousin Dave MCing (look out, Dave, little Aidan is after your job), the beloved elders who...
It Can’t Be Thursday Already!
Can it? :)Very much looking forward to this weekend's family reunion. There will definitely be stories to tell.I worked yesterday, and enjoyed it immensely. Bought some yellow long stemmed roses at the grocery store, just because they're beautiful. That color! Anyway,...
Blogging On
The weather is lovely today--even as I write this, the Canadian Wrangler is out mowing my lawn. 🙂 Don't you just love the smell of fresh-cut grass?The new office is working out very, very well. There are no distractions, even though the former dining room is in the...
There’s a Lot to Love About Tuesday
Here are some things I love about the second day of the work week:1. "That's Clever" records on my Tivo. 🙂 There are SO not enough arts and craft shows on TV. Now that Carol Duvall is gone, it's a pretty barren landscape. What's that about, DIY and HGTV? There are...
Willow Etc.
Tomorrow, one of my early books, "Willow", comes out with a new cover and some updating and revision. It's essentially the same story, but longer and more in depth.On the home front, I'm learning to take my blood pressure every morning. And I'm a wimp--it hurts....
Beautiful Friday
More sunshine! Yes!Today the new office I told you about yesterday will be outfitted with a desk and chair. Starting Monday, I'll be writing in the former dining room. It has a window looking out toward the pasture, but the main reason I like it is because it is both...
Thursday? Already????
Time flies when you're having fun. And I am definitely having fun writing "Creed's Honor", which is book 2 in the 2011 trilogy. I haven't had much extra time for art, because by the time I finish, I'm pretty much worn out--but happy.Sadie is snoozing away beside me,...
I’m Really Rolling!
This new book is SO much fun to write. I can hardly wait to get to my computer, and it's hard to tear myself away when I'm finished. That's the way I like it. :)The weather has been all over the map lately--this morning we have another lovely blast of sunshine. By...
Sunshine!
This Tuesday is off to a beautiful, sun-splashed start. This is the kind of weather that makes me LOVE the autumn season. I won't rhapsodize, having already done so in a previous blog, but suffice it to say, I feel almost festive today. I'm eager to get back to...
