This blog will be written to entertain and possibly enlighten other writers in some small way.
I don’t see any books as blog posts, but maybe I’ll find some as the bot told me that yes, often people do write books in blog format.

Happy Holidays! Al and I are the proud parents of one and a half years old Faye Fey. Absorbed by her antics and buying her everything that was not available to our other cats (RIP Rusty and Lulu and Trixie) like automatic feeders, water fountain, and maybe in future the auto-clean litter box. What a… Keep reading →

Is it only 11 am? Need Xanax!! Computer is giving me fits today. First of all, impossible to find out important information on it this morning. Like, what the hell did those people say to make the minister of my church resign? Surfed the web for an hour in that hopeless quest. Sent emails out Keep reading →

My head is so crammed full of the stuff I learned at the conference that it’s going to take weeks for me to sort it all out. And there’s a soap opera story or two behind the whole thing, but I’ll save that for when I’m in the mood for telling stories. Right now, I’m Keep reading →

(She read first page and laughed first paragraph, v. good sign). 2) burgers for lunch, plus drinks (rum & coke for Donna and Cosmopolitans for me) Keep reading →

Guess there’s something to the old cliche that writing springs from misery, not happiness, because yesterday was feeling sort of low and revised more pages than ever (42), breaking a record and also solving the dilemma of the two endings. Still not willing to trade in basically cheery character for some gin-swilling persona. Of course, Keep reading →

Anniversary yesterday. 17 years. Have been thinking about the next novel. Have been wondering about older heroine w/husband who works too much and pays too little attention to heroine. Has this book been done? Did not receive flowers or candy. That’s ok. Flowers die and candy makes me fat. Should new heroine be zaftig? Maybe Keep reading →

The best thing about working at home is that if you oversleep, it’s no big. Well, that and getting to work in your pajamas. Got up today at 10 am, after a night of heavy partying with the reading group. It’s a little known fact that talking about novels and drinking wine go hand in Keep reading →
