Writing, writing, breakfast in the Antique Dining Room, writing, writing, writing, check out at eleven. Wooee, baby! Let’s hope I’ll be reporting some good word counts when I finally get online this afternoon.
Shhhh…Writers At Work
It’s Saturday. I’ll be writing almost all day today. I created this post Thursday night because I’ll be offline until Sunday evening. I’ll be catching up on e-mail and blogs next week. Enjoy your weekend.
At the Weekend Writers’ Retreat
This afternoon I’ll check in for the Northern Colorado Writers‘ Retreat at Sylvan Dale Guest Ranch near Loveland, Colorado. There are only six of us (all female) attending this year, so instead of rooming in the big Wagon Wheel Bunkhouse facility, we’ll be sharing two cabins. Each of us has our own room for sleeping …Read More
Mix and Match
What I’m Reading: Same as last week. I hated to leave Matt Hilton’s Dead Men’s Dust at home but it’s a hardcover and we were traveling light. Can’t wait to get back to it. Have also not finished the two non-fiction books on writing. I suspect I won’t finish any of these books until next …Read More
Looking At Ordinary Things In A Different Way
I had the best afternoon imaginable yesterday. I did nothing except play with my six-month-old granddaughter and tag along on a long stroll around a small lake called Jamaica Pond with my hubby and our daughter and baby Talia. Hubby (now known as Grandpa) was all strapped up with the baby carrier. He held up …Read More
The Old “I Was Traveling” Excuse
Hubby and I traveled Monday. Even though I travel fairly often, I still find it tedious and draining. Could be my age, I guess. As I get older, I find I’m more and more attached to my own bed, my own cozy reading chair, my own writing space. When we planned this trip, I had …Read More
Colorado Author — Megan DiMaria
I met Megan DiMaria at Barnes & Noble Centerra in Loveland, Colorado. It was October 24th, the same day I signed with a group of mystery writers. Megan had been scheduled for the hours just prior to our appearance. When we heard the announcements, and realized there was another author in the store, we hurried …Read More
Book Signing at Old Firehouse Books
Don’t Cricket McRae and I look as though we’re having fun? Thanks to the great staff at Old Firehouse Books in Old Town Fort Collins, Colorado, that’s exactly what we did yesterday from noon to three. We talked to dozens of readers, passed out bookmarks and shared our tray of sweet treats from Fiona’s Deli …Read More
Book Signing at Old Firehouse Books
I’m signing books at noon today with mystery author Cricket McRae at Old Firehouse Books in Old Town Fort Collins, Colorado. If you’re in the neighborhood, please drop by. We’ll have a big tray of those delicious mini-treats from Fiona’s Deli (lemon bars, brownies, etc.). And, of course, my usual bowl of chocolate treats, including …Read More
How I’m Now Keeping Twitter Time Under Control
I have author friends who still won’t explore Twitter world because they’re convinced the social site will be a time suck and will not provide a direct benefit such as drastically increased blog traffic or book sales. I don’t blame them a bit. Twitter can be addictive. It takes a long time to build the …Read More
