Getting Stuff Done

Hey! How are you today? Well, we enjoyed an awesome two-week break but my husband went back to work on Monday. Cool thing was that he had an RDO on Wednesday and we went to the optometrist for our follow-up appointment that included getting the dreaded drops and photos of the back of our…

Getting Stuff Done...

Hello! How are you today? Hope you're enjoying the month of November. We've had a few temperature drops, but this spring is turning out to be quite warm. So, what's new? As you can see below, my latest book was released this week and I'm very excited. Yay!!! 🥳 FALLEN DES…

Telling More Stories...

How are you today? I hope you had a great week! I spent this week doing a bunch of things, while hoping that the rain would go away. We've been having too much rain lately and it's bugging the hell out of me because I like to bitch about shitty weather. 😫 I just want more than on…

So Many Short Stories!

How are you today? Did you have a nice week? Although the rain stuck around last weekend, it eventually went away during the week. So we finally got a chance to catch up on the washing and went for walks around the river without pesky umbrellas. But it's supposed to come back. 🙄 The …

Another Busy Week!

Hey! How are you today? Hope you had an awesome week. I can't believe July is almost over. A few weeks ago I completed the first edit of my upcoming novel, Fallen Destiny . And this week, I read the proof. From start to finish. Yeah, I worked really hard on this edit. I enjoy smoothi…

Watching, Revising & Reading

Hey, how's it going? I hope you're having a great day. This week turned out to be great, as far as my writing goals and spending time with my husband, but it was the worst for dealing with people. I seriously hate that the general population doesn't seem to understand common c…

Busy Week Full of Words

Hey! How are you today? I hope you're well and finding some happiness and fun during the shittiest timeline ever. 🙄 Every single morning there's a new stupid and cruel thing happening. It's awful to watch. I wish people had paid proper attention and saw exactly what we did. B…

Sorting, Sorting & More Sorting

Hi! How are you today? Even though the world is currently a bizarre mess, I hope you're able to find good vibes and happiness to make your days better. I swear this timeline is the most ridiculous timeslip ever. It's like people had a chance to turn their backs on evil fucks, and …

My Version of a Week Off...

How's it going? Well, Friday's finally here and when my husband gets home, the long weekend begins. And then, next week, we have another long weekend, followed by a week off. Can't wait! But first we're going to enjoy the next three days. 😁 This week turned out to be a l…

The Revision is Done!

Hey! How are you today? I hope you all had a great week. Ours started with a long weekend (awesome) and the next four days turned out to be a blur of revision and rain. Yeah, we've been having some shitty weather in NSW. I really hope the sun makes a comeback and sticks around for a w…

The Revision Continues...

Hey, how are you today? The weekend is finally here, and because my husband has an RDO on Monday, it's a three-day weekend. Awesome! So, did you have a nice week? We slept in and hung out most mornings before hubby went to work, but today we had to get up early so our apartment interc…

Time to Revise!

Hey! How are you today? What did you get up? I  hope you had a great week. Last Saturday, was Election Day in Australia, and I'm excited to report that the LNP (right-wing idiots) lost. Big time. And the Labor party won. Actually, it was a freaking landslide, and the election was won …

The Revision Continues...

How are you today? I hope this week turned out to be a good one for you!  Here, in Sydney, the days got a lot shorter but I'm trying to stay positive. The fact I hung out with my husband every morning, that I went for my daily walks during the day (mostly sunny) and listened to my 80s…

Time to Revise!

Hey! How are you today? How's April treating you? Daylight savings ends this weekend, which always bugs me because I prefer the longer daylight hours. Oh well, we're already in autumn and I've been dealing with it okay. I'm one of those people who's prone to seasonal m…

Doing Stuff...

Hey! How you doing today? Here in Oz, summer is over and in a few weekends it'll be time to turn the clocks back, which I really don't like. I prefer the long days of summer. The shorter days are too depressing and oppressive. Ugh. Not looking forward to it, but I have to stay pos…

Checking In!

Hey! How are you? Can you believe we're almost halfway through March? Yikes. So, my husband went back to work this week, which is the worst after we had such a great break together. It's always hard to get back into the swing of things and I intended to take it easy. Of course, fo…

Thinking Time...

Hi, how are you today? I hope this week treated you well. I've been doing a bunch of different things. A lot of thinking. And sorting. Some spring cleaning. Plenty of reading. For most of this year, I've been so consumed with my own writing/planning and other stuff that reading ha…

Short Stories, Volume 2

Hey! How are you? What's new? This turned out to be quite a week! Yikes. I spent all week proofreading my second short story collection. 😳 If you remember,  last week I completed the first volume , so it was time to get stuck into the next one! This actually took a bit longer to com…

Short Stories, Volume 1

Hey! How are you today? I can't believe it's the first day of June. Yikes. 😳 What have you been up to? I've been proofreading all week. Back in March, I spoke about revising my two short story collections . I actually got as far as reaching the proofreading stage, but then go…

This Novel is Done!

Hey, how are you today? Well, this week I got stuck into the final read-thru of my current revision. That means I sat down with my Paperwhite and read the story from start to finish. This is when any weird sentences or repeated words stand out. Also, awkward phrasing and any excess. Durin…
