I'm feeling productive this week. The writing schedule was maintained, the grocery shopping got done, I puppy-sat yesterday, and I even exercised. (Okay, I did 5 squats with a six-pound dog on my shoulders, but still, I moved when I did not have to. It counts.) I'm starting to get into the new series Still Star-Crossed on … Continue reading Odds & Ends 6/5-6/11
Odds & Ends 5/22-6/4
So, I was totally prepared to not have time to write two weeks ago in the midst of all my brother's wedding hoopla. I had the post about the Wed-Libs all set up and ready to upload on time so I wouldn't have to worry about it. What I wasn't prepared for was not having … Continue reading Odds & Ends 5/22-6/4

I've also done a lot of driving this week, which … Continue reading Odds & Ends: Driving Miss Dazey
Odds and Ends 1/30-2/5
I did it. I actually drafted a query letter this week. As I predicted in my last post, once I actually sat down to do it, it wasn't that painful. I just needed the space and the quiet for my mind to focus and commit to the task (and to run out of things to … Continue reading Odds and Ends 1/30-2/5
