Absent


I have a dear friend in the hospital. I may not be able to get over to my blog for the next few days. We all hope for the best but the doctors aren’t holding out the same hope. Prayers, positive thoughts, Reiki, whatever your means to the higher powers are appreciated for Tom and his family. I’m going down to be whatever moral support I can be.

The Scriptorium Daily. Just in case you thought I forgot. This one is chocked full of writerly advise!


Science – Dar49 Daily. So the little robots got a lot of cool stories into this paper, they didn’t quite land under the categories I believe they should have. Oh, well. Enjoy!


What an exciting conclusion to a great trilogy. Read my review here:

My rating: <a href=”http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/605511766″>5 of 5 stars</a><br /><br />
Wow! What a ride! Look if I’m dingy today, I blame Rachel Fisher. This book started out rolling and didn’t stop. Real life got in my way, or I would’ve finished this in a day or so. Somewhere around 60%, it felt slower but that was the calm before the storm. I figured last night. I’d start reading it midnight and I would fall asleep. The sun was well up in the sky for two hours before I fell asleep. I could not put the book down. I wanted to know what was going to happen to Fi and her friends.<br /><br />I gave this five stars because, as usual, Ms. Fisher told a wonderful tale. But I noticed that somewhere around 60% of the book, there were a few mistakes words left out or tiny misspellings. The other thing that really bothered me and I know this is just me, how did Fi deal with dirty diapers? I’ve had four kids. I could not have fought a war with any one of them hanging from me. I know Fi is a really strong woman. But somehow I have a hard time grasping a woman who just gave birth and running 3 miles with her baby in the backpack. It just seems rather impossible to me. But that doesn’t stop the story. And it is an amazing one. Maybe I missed something in reading it.<br /><br />I love the ending! I will have to reread the trilogy again as I miss this great bunch of characters!

13,061 So Far


Okay, I should be at 17,741 words but considering that I started on day 7 with barely a story in mind I think I will be catching up. I don’t plan to make myself crazy by banging out something useless, though. So If I don’t finish on July 31st I won’t feel badly. I have finished on time many times. I have not finished at all and I have finished late. I know that what I want is to finish something that I have enjoyed writing. Not matter how long it takes.

So far my story has leaped my people back and forth in time. They have met with a ghost and a crazy hypnotherapist who is out to kill the main character. We don’t know why any of this is happening, but the main character is growing through these adventures, as is her best friend.

I love when the book writes itself. The characters feel real to me and their surroundings are quite clear. I hope I am creating the snapshots I see in the writing. I’m having fun. That’s all that matters!Image


The Scriptorium Daily. Just got around to reading this one. Some really good articles about writing. Enjoy!


For those of us who have been there this will validate you. For those who have not, hopefully, this will educate both in how bad it can get for those with ADD/ADHD or others who need new ideas for keeping track of $$$$$

โ€œIโ€™m also terrible with money. My dad had me write down every penny I spent, including cashโ€ฆthat was extremely difficult for me, but it did show me some major โ€œleaksโ€ that Iโ€™ve had to fix. Now I keep better track of my debit card usage, and my overdrafts have gone from 5-10 per month (YIKES!) to almost none. Weโ€™ve also worked on paying bills FIRST when I get paid, so now instead of paying my utilities when they threaten to shut them off (or when they DO shut them off!), Iโ€™m able to get them paid when theyโ€™re due or even a few days before. Iโ€™m still working on the impulse spending, but at least if I pay my bills first, I wonโ€™t be in such bad shape! Iโ€™m glad to know that Iโ€™m not the only intelligent person who understands money concepts from a logical standpoint but still strugglesโ€ฆ
