Mayhem, disaster, and rolling blackouts, welcome to 2014.

Hi folks,

Mayhem, disaster, and rolling blackouts, welcome to 2014. Let me tell you how 2014 started for us. Jan. 02. I arose early to feed the dogs as usual. No Water. So, fed the dogs then went under the house to see what was what. Yep, frozen. In my attempts to free up the pipes the valve connecting us to the town water supply exploded.

Great. K called the town to come shut off the water while I went to buy a new valve. We then searched for and found the outside shut off and dug it out. By noon we had a new valve installed and by four we had water back. Fun what.

However, it wasn’t over. Jan. 04 an arctic storm blew in with a vengeance. This time the drain pipe from the kitchen froze as did the pipes to the laundry. As I was trying to deal with that the power company had a massive failure. Thank the gods for the wood stove. 

While so many others were huddling in warming centers we were snug as bugs with a roaring fire in the stove. I sat in a comfortable chair, surrounded by sleeping dogs and cats while the family played Canasta by candle light. Their laughter and warm loving banter gave me warm fuzzies all over.

I won’t bother with the snow issues as others have covered that on Facebook all too well. Yep, we’re off to a roaring start.

Now, before another rolling blackout hits, I’ll outline my writing goals for 2014.

Here’s the plan and I will be the first to admit it is a bit ambitious.

 The first thing is to begin a number of revisions and upgrades to some of my earlier work. This has already begun with the release of Lady Blue which was originally released as Gifted.

The second part of the plan is to complete a five book series of romance novels.

The third part of the plan is to write and release two stand-alone books, one a romance and one action adventure.

Well there it is. I will admit I have other project running through my head, but this is all I am willing to commit to at the moment. Now if only the power company can get its ducks in a row… if I have to do all that long hand …. Grrrrr. Tee hee

Here’s hoping each and every one of you has a stellar year in 2014. Drop by and say hello; I love to hear from you.

Bright Blessings

Writer’s Year in Review

Hi Folks,

Well, here we are at the end of 2013. It was a tough year, but a good one. Well, it had a tough start, but as the year wore on it got rolling better. On the tough side, I had a bad fall last January and have spent far too much of the year adjusting to and recovering from that injury. In other words, it cramped my style, dadgummit. To add insult to injury, sales took a nose dive last winter. argh

Looking Ahead

Hi folks,

Well, another week has passed, and although I have done almost no writing, I have been a busy girl. There has been much shopping done, some visiting, wrapping, secret keeping, tree decoration supervision, kitchen experimentation, and numerous other interesting and fun things accomplished.

This Week… What I did and didn’t get done.

 Hi folks, 

 It’s Sunday again and another week has slipped through my fingers. We began by huddling in the house from the cold snap. The winter arrived with full intent this time. Oh how I do love a warm fire. So do the dogs and cats.

We also spent some time rearranging the furniture to squeeze in the Christmas Tree. With three adults, four dogs and three cats in our little cottage space is at a premium. However we did manage to get it up. Yay!!! Here's 2011's version. Hopefully next week you will see the current version.

Launch Day

Hi folks, here we are again. It has been a wild and bust week, but I’ve managed to get lots accomplished. Not as much writing as I would have liked, but I did get some. However, the big excitement this past week is the launch of Empire’s Advance. Today is the official launch day and here’s the links to find the book. Get 'em while they're hot. :)

It’s coming soon…So’s Christmas

Hi folks,

Well, November is gone and I have no idea where it went. As some of you will notice, we’re a bit behind schedule in the release of Empire’s Advance. It’s looking good for this coming week so, I’ll just give you another look at the cover and a bit of what you can expect to find inside. Bear with me; we will get it out this week.

New Cover

Hi folks,

Well, I’ve got a few things to report this week, but the most exciting is the new cover for my next book, Empire’s Advance. This is the second book in the Corelian Guard series and follows the exploits of Hunter’s characters as things take a turn for the worse. We hope to get the book out sometime in the next two weeks so stay tuned.

 Here’s the cover.

Our cover model is the lovely and very talented Emzilla. When Emz saw the cover she said, “Let me play with it; I can make it better.” She did. This cover is her work and you can find her and some of her work on Facebook here:
