I’m Camping

It’s been a bit tough settling into editing the final two books for Miss Liv’s Adventures this year. I’m moving along, but not at the breakneck speed I’d love to achieve for you, dear Readers. So I’ve carved out a goal for Camp NaNoWriMo and I’m sticking to it this April. More adventures coming soon!

Whoo Hoo! Book IV is complete!

Another NaNoWriMo is nearly behind us, and I’m so excited to not only win the 50,000 words in 30 days challenge but to have completed Book IV of the Miss Liv Adventures series! Miss Livingstone dove headfirst into a few more plot twists, and if she finds her way through the whirlwind, she’ll reach a…

You Think You Know a Person…

My petticoat muse has taken quite a turn. No sooner did I finish Miss Livingstone Book III: Dreams Key and set the Release and Launch for December 21st and she kicked back and quit helping me!“It’s the holidays,” she says. “I’m getting a makeover and chillaxing until the virtual parties arrive.”“It’s time for copious reading…

An A-Musing Offer

Did you miss me? I was stuck with my nose to the grindstone with my Miss Liv Adventures story muse sitting on my back. She pushed me through to proofing the first print copy of Book III: Dreams Key. And I’ll admit her thick petticoats spread over me were warm when summer waned… But when…

Chantiki’s Boudoir – Esteemed Guest

New Release! I’m honored to have my personal favorite short story, “The Fickle Face of Time” featured in Victoria Bastedo’s Vintage Ladies Magazine, Chantiki’s Boudoir.

A Little Drama

I took time out from editing to attend ‘Murder on the Orient Express’ at our local theatre Valley Center Stage .  I’m always amazed at the imaginative sets and acting talent that come through this theatre. This near life-sized train engine wall mural, with actual lights embedded, greeted patrons as we entered, setting the stage…

Ninny Rhino Achieved! Camp NaNo Challenge Accepted!

In the month of March I took up D. Wallace Peach’s Ninny Rhino challenge – mostly because I wanted the awesome Rhino Badge, but also because I needed to get back on track with disciplined writing sessions and immerse myself in Miss Livingstone’s twisty time travel plot until I solved the remaining plot knots. It…

On the Road Again
