First of Two Writers’ Retreats


Yay! Loving an intimate, 7-person writers’ retreat with friends in the mountains. Writing all day and all evening, punctuated with an occasional trip to the hot tub and dinner/conversation about writing. Getting TONS done!

Novel revisions going well


I really have a fine critique group who give me wonderful feedback: useable suggestions that improve my work and share a vision for what I am trying to do. Revision is always lots of work, and is sometimes tough, but they give me critique that is not overwhelming. Really enjoying working on my current novel.

A Bit of a distraction…?


So, last Saturday, I was coaching my daughter as she gave birth to a wonderful baby boy! Then all this week, I was helping her and her partner with the new little one. They are well settled, now. And…writing? Not a word.
