I found this writing meme at Writing Wrongs and thought I’d give it a go. I believe it’s been floating around for some time now. What’s Your Writing Style? 1. Are you a “pantser” or a “plotter?” I would say that I’m a plotser. It helps me to have an idea of how the story will begin and end with a few pivotal points... Read→

Our wishcasting hostess Jamie asks today: What do you wish to remember? It wouldn’t be completely accurate to say my husband and I are techies.  We don’t always have to have the most up to date gadgets (well, accept for my husband when it comes to Sony!), and we don’t attend too many Cons, but we do love new ideas, future-thinking... Read→

I must apologize to my online friends for not commenting at your blogs lately.  I’m easing back into blogging again and will definitely be visiting all of you.  In June and July, even May really, I was crazy busy and at the same time going through a funk, I think because I was exhausted and had blown through my confidence.  I also came to realize... Read→

As you can see, I’ve once again changed my template.  I tire so quickly of them and yet I know it’s better to stick with one so it will be recognizable to your readers.  I guess until I’ve had a major publication, when you’re supposed to brand yourself, I’ll keep playing around them the templates until I find what’s... Read→

It’s good to be inspired again.  The book ideas of I’ve come up with seem feasible even though I’ve never written anything novel sized before.  These ideas could take me in the direction of either a cozy mystery or a paranormal romantic suspense.  I’m not sure which direction to go because a cozy mystery would be more restrictive... Read→

My Poetry Play Thursday prompt at Texty Ladies today prompted me to write some silly examples.  A little dose of crazy can be just what the doctor ordered.  I hope people will lighten up with this one.  Read More →

Our Wishcasting question from Jamie today is: What do you wish to tell the world? I wish to ask the whole world to join us in casting wishes.  Go ahead and feel free to dream, wish upon a star, reach for the sky! Solace of Solstice by Terrance Osborne What could it hurt?  We take a risk when we believe, when we have hope.  What if we’re let... Read→

Ahh, it’s that time again. Time to put away practicality and let our dreams and desires take center stage. Our wishcasting hostess, the beautiful Jamie Ridler, asks us today: What do you wish to invite in? Let me start by saying that I recently won a tarot reading by Jamie when she gave it as a prize during the celebration of her new site.... Read→

FOR TODAY…July 13, 2009 Outside my window…The sun is still sleeping.  My purple petunias are making a comeback after the feast the bunnies had a few days after planting them. I am thinking…that I feel human again after a few days of back pain. I am thankful for…the relief from pain and this fresh start to a new week that I... Read→

It’s Friday and you should be reading how I’ve wrecked my journal but I’ll admit I haven’t done much wrecking lately.  I’ll get caught up this week and report my results next Friday. When I started this blog because I was having so much trouble with Blogger and my A Touch of Inspiration blog, I decided to get a host and... Read→

Good morning!  I’ve been away from the Internet world for a few weeks now, with just a quick visit here and there.  My son’s graduation open house was a success and now that it is over, I’m on to planning the next event…my husband’s birthday party.  Planning and preparing for the open house took a lot more out of me... Read→

I was wronged today.  I don’t like being wronged, none of us do, and it had me fuming all morning. I commute to and from work each day by bus.  As I stood alone at the bus stop, watching others walk over to stand in line behind me, my transgressor walked up and stood in front of me at the head of the line.  Granted, the others were not yet close... Read→
