It’s a hot summer afternoon. Voices murmur in the streets as groups of people stand and wait, they know not for what. Inside the building, the air is stifling and stale. All the windows have been shut and no one has gone in or out for some time. The men gathered there dab at the […]
Boing! Flash! Bounce, Bump
Bounce, bounce, bounce. Flash! Crash! Boing, boing, bump. Does that sound like anything familiar. A bouncy ball? Yep. The kind that light up when you drop them and bounce all over the place. Anything else? Did someone say your brain? If so, you know the feeling because that’s what my brain has been feeling like […]

Camp NaNo Update
Dear Readers, I’m having a lovely time at camp. My cabin mates are great and I’ve gotten more written during my crazy weeks then I thought was possible. And Writing Sprints . . . Yep, I didn’t know how fun they were until I did my first one and broke through my “don’t want to […]

2016 Recap
It’s hard to believe that it’s now 2017! Where has 2016 gone? Weren’t we just trying to remember to write 2016? Did you have big plans for this past year? If so, did you accomplish them? I had some, but failed to complete my biggest project. That’s not too surprising, however, when I had to […]

After the Dust Has Settled
The party is over, life is returning to “normal” . . . if there is such a thing as normal. Now, notice, I didn’t say it HAD RETURNED to normal, but that it was getting there. Usually I have my post up by around 8:30 each Tuesday. But not today. Today I forgot it. I […]
