Weekly Goals: I made my three blog posts last week, but no comments on anyone else’s blogs; the fun of dealing with house repairs, contractors, insurance, and my “day job” isn’t leaving me a lot of time or energy. Fear isn’t the mind-killer; it’s STRESS (well, some of my stress could be defined as FEAR, … Continue reading

Meandering Monday about Remembering a Whole Lot of Life Happening
I remember doing an exercise a few years back when I was first getting into writing. I was working through this book I still have somewhere (if I was writing this at home, I could probably turn around and find it in the bookcase, but the slab leak has us out of the house right … Continue reading
Fractured Fragment Friday: “Obsolete” (and a coupon!)
We’re getting closer and closer to making “improvements” in our genetics, whether it’s a good idea or not.

Fractured Fragment Friday: “Mating Rituals” (and a coupon!)

There are SO MANY voices running around in there…) This is also one of … Continue reading

At week’s end, I was 95% finished with this FINAL revision of Swordsmaster, which is sitting at 100,331-words. “Schizo the Magnificent” is still … Continue reading
Fractured Fragment Friday: “The Pipes” (and a coupon!)
“The Pipes” started out as a monologue that popped into my head and out of my mouth while driving. That bit about bagpipes in the first paragraph – a large part of that first paragraph, even. I had to keep writing to find out why there was a funeral – and the other pipes that … Continue reading
