My feed is all dogs now! I'm still writing, per the dog sleeping on my laptop...

Happy late Christmas from someone who needs a little extra time to process all the hoopla before taking the right photo to share. Worth the wait? Hope so...

It's official. I'll be attending next year's Ignited By Books Author Event in Toronto on September 13, 2025. Mostly romance authors, but a few other genres as well. Proceeds always go to a designated charity, which will be announced in the new year.

Sometimes I find peace scrolling through #dogsofbluesky , because... dogs! New dog is coming home with me in the next couple weeks. Beware of dog pics!

Anyone taking part in Nano? I'm way behind as I was only able to start this week. But I'm happy to dish out encouragement to others!

Here's a photo of some puppies to help ease the election stress today. I'm north of the border, but the rhetoric has been bleeding into the social fabric here, and some positivity would be nice for a change. Good luck to everyone. #dogsofbluesky

Just finished up two solid days of working out a timeline error in the new novel. Required visual aids and a full read, with notes, of the entire manuscript, which is why I was avoiding it. But now the timeline works, and I can get on with polishing. Feels good! But... whew! Writing is hard work!!

In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice. KURT VONNEGUT - born 101yrs ago today - was the only one to respond. His reply was just wonderful.
