Need help telling when a story takes place? Here are some tips to help. Sometimes it’s hard to know when a story takes place. Of course it isn’t always necessary to know an exact time period because when it’s just a story and not an historical fiction, you don’t have to know. But at times […]
Half a Year– Gone!
What has happened? This year is disappearing faster than most years. I think it’s time I stopped and looked at what I’ve accomplished and what I still need to work on this year. I had a goal to write and publish 12 short stories this year. So far I’ve managed to write and publish […]
New Books, Old Books
I love to read. I actually have a list of every single new book I’ve read (not counting kids picture books that I read to nieces and nephews) for over 20 years! When we were young, my mom counted reading as school. That was the kind of school I loved! But we had to keep […]
Not Normal
This isn’t going to be a normal post. Just thought I’d let you know right from the start. You see . . . The Indians attacked the wagon train I was on, but we were able to drive them off when a terrible storm blew in after five hours of fighting. Uh, wrong time […]
Bookshelf Tour Part 6
You’re back! Are you ready for the next couple shelves of books? Good, then let’s head back upstairs to my room. I’m going to do the two lower shelves instead of the top and bottom like I did last time. Do you know how hard it is to take pictures of my lower bookshelves when […]

The Great Idea Quest
It was a beautiful morning, and the sun was just coming up. Grabbing my jacket, I slung my pack of food and water over my shoulder. Since there wasn’t a cloud in the sky, I decided a hat might be a good idea. I mean, I might be fine without it, but since I burn […]
When Do I Read?
I’ve seen it come up lately. I’ve heard the questions. When do you have time to read? It is a little puzzling, even to me at times, how I managed to get over 30 books read in under two months and still write, blog, plan a widows’ luncheon, babysit, and do many other things. Sometimes […]
Why I Didn’t Write
July and August were not such good writing months for me. I got 8,833 words written in July and a grand total of 6,001 words in August. (And the August words were re-writing/adding to a story.) Why didn’t I write more? Here are 18 excuses reasons I didn’t write much those months. I was trying […]
Liebster Award Blog Tag
Yes, we are doing another blog tag this week. You all seem to enjoy them so I figured I might as well. Besides, it’s the 5th Tuesday of the month. The Liebster Award is an award passed around from blogger to blogger. The word Liebster is German, meaning sweet, kind, nice, dear, lovely, pleasant, valued, […]
