• Who’s your favorite demon? (Newsletter)

    First Drafts are the Worst This month I’ve started on a new project. I’ve titled the document “The One with the Demon,” but I have no idea what the actual title is going to be. That’s always the hardest part for me. But it’s been coming along nicely. I’ve written a couple thousand words and I…

  • All Hail the AI overlords

  • February Stress

    Caught up some, but still a little behind. We’re moving in 8 days. Ugh. So, this week I have my to do list, but I’m putting zero pressure on myself to get it done. And it’s way less than any other week. I need to get our house packed and cleaned this week so we…

  • February Begins

    Another great week. I only missed one task, but I blame the day job nonsense I had to deal with and my busy Friday since my bestie got married. But nothing major, so I’m sure I’ll catch up no problem. This week it’s really getting close to the launch of my next book. Can’t wait…

  • My Horror Novel Gave Me Chills

    Two Worlds Apart (working title) This book has been a doozy to write. I finished up the second draft last week and this week I’ll begin my deep scene work. But I have never felt so good about a book before. When I did my first read through, I got to the end and had…

  • January is Almost Over

    We’re almost at the end of the month and I’m proud to say I’ve continued my streak of getting the work done. This week I’m back to the day job without any extra days off, so let’s see if I can keep it up. I’ll have to go back to getting up early, lame, but…

  • January is a Win

    I’m really starting the year off strong with another great week.  My outline for the new book is coming along and I have my main scenes set up with cards. This week I’ll finish up anything else I need to research before I begin writing next week.  I’m also working my way through the launch…

  • 1 Down, 51 to Go

    Hit the ground running with a great first week. Marked literally everything off the list and I didn’t even have anything to ‘catch up’ on during the weekend. It was nice and I hope it foreshadows a very productive year. I’ve got another full board of tasks this week and I’m excited to get going. …

  • End of Year Thoughts

    2023 has been quite a year. Both in my real life and in my author life. I had a huge plan for myself this year, and I’m proud to say I marked nearly every single task off the list. There were a few things I decided just weren’t for me, and there were a few…
