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…

March Break!

Hey! How's it going? Well, March is here and in Australia that marks the beginning of autumn. I'm going to miss summer because it's my favourite season, but at least we have one more month of daylight savings left. My husband has a few weeks off and we're having a great ti…

Busy January!

Hey, remember me? 😃 It's been a while since I posted because I've been caught in an endless loop of editing all month. And now, the first month of 2026 is almost over. Yikes. So, how are ya? How are we all surviving during the weirdest timeline ever? It's too much, isn't …

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…

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…

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…

A Week Full of Stories!

Hey, how are you today? I hope you're having a great week. As you know, I finished an extensive (3-week) novel revision last Thursday night and when I woke up on Good Friday, I was mentally exhausted. Seriously drained. So I really enjoyed the four-day break with my husband. Lots of …

This Revision is Done!

Hey! How are you today? I hope you're all having a nice week. I know the world is in a terrible state right now, but I'm trying to lose myself in stories. And when I'm not writing, I love spending time with my husband. 😍 This week I got stuck into the final read-thru of my cu…

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…

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…

Still writing...

Hey! How are you? This isn't technically my first blog post for 2025, but it's definitely my very first update post. 😁 So, how's the new year treating you? It's a shame to see that the world insists on carrying forward the crappy violent and vile stuff. Between stupid peo…

2024 Goals

Well, it's time to grab the goals list I put together/posted back in January, to see how I went. This year turned out to be a very strange one. Lots of cool stuff happened, and some not-very cool stuff happened as well. Some shitty people revealed themselves and some disappointing cra…

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…

Checking In!

Hey, it's been a while! How are you? Is everything okay in your part of the world? Over here, we're in the last month of autumn (which felt a lot like summer until a few weeks ago) and we're currently stuck in the middle of some very shitty weather. If you've read my posts…

Stories, Stories, Everywhere!

Hey! How are you today? Hope March is treating you well because it's almost over. One more week to go! 😬 I'm looking forward to the four-day weekend. I always look forward to time off with my husband. So, the last two weeks have been super busy for me. I've been working on e…

2023 Goals

Well, we've almost reached the end of 2023, so I suppose it's time to chat about my goals. This year turned out to be packed full of stuff. My husband became a bus driver, which flipped our routine. I managed to get my writing back on track after spending so much of the last few y…

Still Revising...

How are you today? Well, it's spring in Australia, but you wouldn't know it because we've been having summer temps since the weekend! 😳 Whenever I hear someone trying to argue that climate change isn't a thing, I get so pissed off because the evidence is there every sin…

I'm back in Revision Town!

Hey! How's it going? It's me again. I took a week off to rest my brain after spending most of August revising a 45k novella, but now I'm getting stuck into another lot of revision. Yeah, I can't stay away. This time I'm working on this story . The one that came to me o…
