    If it’s not something in my world sidetracking me, it’s my own brain! Some work got done today, but not nearly as much as I’d wanted. This means, of course, that I’m stacked up into tomorrow. Sigh…at least it’s not as nuts as last week! As for the sidetracking part…I’ve been thinking a lot lately about…

    Last week was a crazy week…lots of client work (yeah!) but not enough writing my own stuff (boo!). Ah, the delicate balance. Rather than a ballerina prancing around the stage, however, we’re talking Lucille Ball working at the chocolate factory. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8NPzLBSBzPI Messy, messy, messy! Still working on story number two for the year, but will…

    Although I’m not using the expression as the original meaning intended, in our modern vernacular, it seems to fit. Sometimes it feels like I’ve been placed under the “Sword of Damocles” – or rather, that I’ve placed myself there, by pushing myself to write every day. But what nonsense is this? I love to write.…

    It’s been a crazy busy week – haven’t stopped back by, but so far so good…only missed one day writing so far – yesterday. Every other day, I’ve been writing something on this second story. Have absolutely no clue where it’s going or how it’s going to end, but that’s what’s so fun about it!…

    Yeah! Had a bit of an inspiration this weekend, wrote a flash fiction short story, and even submitted it to an online flash fiction paying market. The title is What’s a Housewife to Do and is less than 800 words long, so obviously a flash fiction. Week two short story is now in progress – the plan…

      Imagine a Muslim majority country being taken over by Christians. I’m not talking an invasion of a so-called Christian nation or even a presidential “ultimatum”. I’m talking about God defeating His Enemy from the inside out! We, who call ourselves Christians, serve a powerful God…but He’s not the only god. Does that surprise you?…

    Very little – maybe a sentence or two – on the story tonight. Oy…and I promised myself I’d make every effort to write one per week! Then, on top of that, I’ve got two client blogs to write tomorrow, plus 9 more to wrap up next week. Pressure much??? Arghhh!!! Ah well, off to bed…

    Slowly starting to get back into the swing of things, but it’s tough. Glad we’re not homeschooling until next week (smart hubby!) as it’s helping me ease back into my regular schedule. I’ve been working on my short story all week, however tonight I wandered into journal mode, pondering the question of why my stories…

    It’s a good thing that the online clutter I have is seen only by me because visitors to my electronic world would take one look, then quickly turn around and leave! And I’m certain I would hear faint whispers of “hoarder” as they quickly pass from view… Yes, I admit it…I collect information. Lots of…
