My house is crazy-noisy. Like, ALL THE TIME. My husband and Lulu constantly break out into song…about anything that comes to their minds and at any given time. Sometimes, they take turns with piano accompaniment. Angry Bird telepods are forever sailing through the air. Super Mario 3D World…UGH…the music alone makes my ears bleed after…
I wouldn’t exactly label myself a control freak. True, I like things done a certain way (fine, MY way) and in my time. But it’s not like I fall apart if they don’t go according to my set schedule. I may get a little crabby, but I’m not completely unreasonable or unyielding. I’m just…regimented. =)…
Today is a good day. I feel very relaxed right now. It doesn’t hurt that I’m getting a pedicure as I type, but that’s not the real reason. I just feel like I have a lot to look forward to on this journey toward publication. I don’t know where it will lead me, but I’m…

I would say that I get one solid hour of stress-free, uninterrupted writing time per week. That doesn’t mean I only write during that one hour; it only means that I don’t have seven other things cooking simultaneously. I can’t tell you how much I love this time. My daughter throws back handsprings. I type….
Someone recently asked me if i could see Unlikely Venture made into a movie at some point. I suppose that would naturally come after it lands on the NYT bestseller list, right? I’m sure it comes as no shock to anyone (especially fellow writers) that I most certainly think it has silver screen potential. Heck,…
My editor recently told me that publishers don’t like the “s” in “towards,” “backwards,” or “forwards.” Add this to the ever-increasing list of things I didn’t know about writing.
