Well, after a month of a lot of ‘stuff’ happening around our house, I was able to get back to writing. It may not sound like much, but it is a huge accomplishment for me. I am working on the second book in a series of four or five. My daughter is editing the first book. Usually, if I can get into the ‘zone’ of writing I can type out about 10 pages in a day on a good day. The big obstacle lately has been being able to get into that ‘zone’.
If you write, you know what I’m talking about. This probably applies to most anything actually. You have to get into that space in time when you can only concentrate on that project. But life happens and it is difficult to put other things aside at times.
A cabin, far away in the woods at the top of a mountain sounds pretty peaceful and like a great place to be. But I wouldn’t want to be there alone for long. I would really like my husband to be there with me. He is rather low maintenance most of the time. It’s just nice to have him near by.
So, I’ll be dreaming about that cabin as I sleep tonight and of course the plot of the story I’m working on! You all have a great night as well.

Writing has always been a love of mine. Except for school reports! I didn't cherish those moments. I began with poems in grade school, and short little stories that I illustrated. I created something for each family celebration, and probably wore my family out. But I graduated to a longer 'book' by the time I was 18. Following traditional romance novel writing, I pounded out a pretty cheesy story on a Royal typewriter I had found at a garage sale. You didn't worry about your nails when using one of those! When our first four children were still young, I wrote my first full-length book back in 1998. I followed it with three more in that series. Those are my current WIP, needing many updates and editing before I give them to my editor to slash to bits. But the books are always much better with her advisement and help! Currently, I have nine published books.
My husband and I have been married for thirty-eight years and we have five children and nine grandchildren. I've been a homeschooling mom, Sunday school teacher, AWANA director and a pastor's wife. I've worked as a CNA and an Activity Director. When I'm not busy writing...which I love, BTW, I'm working on home projects, marketing and attending events, where I love to meet you...my readers!
