Hey! How are you? What have you been up to? Wow. I can't believe I haven't posted an update since the beginning of the month. BUT, in my defence, July has been a pretty active month.  For starters, hubby took two weeks off from work for an overdue break. And my daughter…

Hi!  How was your week? Mine was a bit strange. A little topsy-turvy because after almost three weeks, my daughter went back to school. That means that my brain needed to switch gears before settling into any new projects. My head is just too full of ideas right now to concentr…

Hey! I somehow managed to get a lot done during my daughter's last week of school holidays. Even with a public holiday thrown into the middle of it. Actually, I wrote a 3,431-word short story on that day. We got the chance to sleep in on Wednesday and while checking my Twitter ti…

It's been a while since I popped in, right? April is turning out to be quite a busy month. Between school holidays, a strata meeting (glad it's done for another year), Loki's vaccine & checkup (everything's cool), plus a hundred other real life things, I forgot …

The other day I posted this tweet: And just had  to mention it here, because this time of year is always the same. By the time we reach December, I've done so many things that my brain begins to slow down.  I'm the kind of person who's always got a to-do list and pr…

Welcome to my third current WIP update! :) So, how was your week? Mine was super busy. There's a bunch of remedial work going on in our building and the contractors are taking their sweet time getting things done. To the point where we start to think they forgot about us and …

Actually, that's not technically correct because I have posted several book reviews and even a Q&A with an Aussie author ... but I haven't added any actual update posts for a while. So, how are you? This month has been an excellent one. We've enjoyed a bunch of adve…

It's been a while since I  posted an update about my short story goals , so I thought that posting a little something the week I got back into the swing of things might be a good idea. BTW, this is my daughter's first week of school holidays, so of course my muse decided …

Hey guys! I hope you're all having a great week. I haven't been productive this week. At all. And you know what? I don't care. Why? Because it's my daughter's last week of school holidays and hubby took a week off. Yay! I did get some reading done, though. A…

That's right! It's Michael Myers month, everybody.   Also happens to be the birthday month of both my hubby and my daughter. And the time to celebrate all things spooky. That time of year where all I want to do is read scary books and watch horror movies. When it's ti…

Can you believe it? Yikes!   Well, it looks like this is now my go-to pic whenever I blog. But how can it not be? I mean, it pretty much captures me during winter: a robe-wearing, book-reading, tea/coffee-drinker who breaks up her hibernation for daily walks. :)   Seriously, t…

Hey! How's everyone doing? As you can tell from the title, I spent this week working on Willow's second draft. The cute gal to our left is Willow Moss. Well, a cutesy version of her, which I made on this doll maker site . She's supposed to have blue eyes, but brown is all th…

As you can tell from my picture, my Reading Break somehow extended into this week. :)   Hubby had a 4-day weekend, and is having another one this week because of the Easter break, so it wasn't worth starting anything new/getting stuck into any projects for three days.   S…

Now this is a word that can make me crazy.   Mainly because I'm so good at unintentionally  creating clutter for myself.   When I receive or buy something, I don't put it away. I like to put the item/s on my stationery trunk. So that I can see what I've got. It&#…

OMG! Asides from book reviews and blog hops, I haven't posted an update since the beginning of June! Can you believe that? O.o   Time sure flies when you get stuck into several projects, keep reading good books, enjoy yourself, and take a few weeks off...   Okay, the last …

So, did you enjoy the Sierra Fox Blog Book Tour ? I hope you liked the guest blogs, fun interviews, and contests that took place during the last week. I had a blast.   I just want to say  THANK YOU to every single blogger who helped get the word out about Sierra's fourth book.…

Yep.   This week I'm working on the second draft of RECAST #4, which I wrote during NaNoWriMo last year . It's a great time to get stuck into it because Book 3 was released last week-- yay! --and I'm still riding on that high. Besides, it's a much smaller story …

I get up super early with hubby every morning, and while we were having breakfast yesterday I noticed that the moon was huge and bright. So I decided to step outside on the balcony to take a picture of it. And that's when I noticed the moon had a friend. Turns out it was Jupiter b…

Hey!   So, this feels like another Sierra Fox week to me. :) Seriously, they seem to become all about Sierra a lot... which is actually a very cool thing. I love writing this series, and I'm going to miss it so much when it's done. That's why my head is buzzing …

Yikes! I meant to pop in last week but just kept running out of time. Why does it always feel like there aren't enough hours in the day to get allthestuff done? Um, probably because there isn't. O_o I don't understand how people get bored at home. I've got so many th…
