Stripping

Friday, September 29th, 2006

Sounds fun, doesn’t it? And it kind of is, even though it doesn’t involve hot, sweaty men removing their clothing.
I always have a few things going on writing-wise. I have notes in my iPaq for one story, a notebook of handwritten pages for another, and the must-finish-or-die deadline book on my laptop, […]

Hey, wanna win a book?

Wednesday, September 27th, 2006

I need to order pens. Despite a life-long pen fetish and a love for promo pens, I don’t yet have my own. I tried to order some once, but the company chose not to tell me that pen was out of stock and I got really ticked off after waiting. I really need a little […]

Scaling the mountain

Tuesday, September 26th, 2006

So I’m still putting my den/office back together after the removal of the ginormous corner desk in favor of sleek new desk (read as zero storage) and the lateral file and the stuff. Most of the contents of the ginormous corner desk got dumped into boxes which now sit in the middle of the floor. […]

Just another Manic Monday

Monday, September 25th, 2006

I’m panting and ready for a nap already and it’s barely 9:00. I hate Mondays. And today got switched up because the kindergarten is going apple picking and instead of making two trips, they take morning and afternoon all at the same time. (Brave, brave teachers.) So the short kid goes from […]

What to blog about…

Friday, September 22nd, 2006

I have no idea. I’ve blogged about my new computer, my new desk, the big orange Dumpster from Hell, even the sock I’m knitting. My brain doesn’t seem to be firing on all cylinders. (Perhaps because I’m in a writing blitz?)
But so your trip here wasn’t a waste of time, I’ve got excerpts up […]

The Self-Striping Experiment

Thursday, September 21st, 2006

No, it’s not some kinky sex thing. Well…on second thought, it probably is, but that’s not the way in which I meant it.
I knit. I rarely, if ever bore y’all with knitting crap, but it’s an awesome way to keep the hands busy while freeing the muse to think about writing. […]

A contest and good news!

Tuesday, September 19th, 2006

Click on the link at the top of my sidebar or head to Ann’s to see how to win a copy of Going the Distance signed by Ann, Jaci, and I! It’s fun, easy and a great anthology! (You know…if I do say so myself.)
I also mailed off contracts for the sequel to 72 […]

Sparky news!

Tuesday, September 19th, 2006

I’m still trying to scale Mount Paperpile with little hope of reaching the summit, but I did get good news today.
Interstellar Sparks will release October 18th from EC!

I’ll have two books in October. *snoopy dance*
Okay…back to filing. *pout*

Does this mean I have to wear pantyhose now?

Monday, September 18th, 2006

Anybody who knows me well has heard the abysmal whining about mass-cleaning due to the dumpster rental. Wet stuff in the basement was one thing, but since the dumpster was ginormous, we got to muck out the rest of the house, too.
 Oh. Yay.
Anyway, my den/office got torn to pieces, and the opportunity arose to get […]
