One year on from this book baby's pub day. There's since been a large print edition, and the paperback just dropped too!

Happy birthday, Storm Clouds. Can't wait to see what you do next!

If anyone needs me, I'll be frolicking outside in the gorgeous springy weather which I know won't be sticking around for long.

It is the Midwest, after all! 😆

I sometimes pretend to myself that I have insomnia.

When what I really have is a good book and inadequate respect for tomorrow.

Hey.

Even if you didn't write a single word today, you're still a writer.

Even if you dont write tomorrow. The whole week. Doesn't matter.

Word counts don't make you a writer, my friends 💜

It's a snowy, windy, and cold Monday.

A good one to spend indoors working on this infuriating first draft.

Librarian PSA:

You do not need to use this many sticky notes. Definitely don't leave them in your library book when you return it. #librarysky #booksky

I write blog posts too - and Wordpress just chose one of my posts for their "Freshly Pressed" page. Which means a lot to me, as the subject matter is deeply personal.

The post is called "London Calling: Conquering OCD" - and you can read it here: wordpress.com/discover/

It's winter again in Indiana today.

So my brain is vacationing in my photography files from Fiji!

Ooooh some good ideas are really flowing this morning.

I thought of a great idea to make this new draft really pop.

It only involves an entire rewrite of the first half of the book. 🙃

Heyyyyy! I love editing.

Me at 17 in Dealey Plaza. Me at 40 in Dealey Plaza. And the book that resulted from a lifelong interest.

A sign posted on a tree. "A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies: A man who never reads lives only one."

Which books are you living in lately?

Sometimes, you just have to sit still and quiet in the writing chair and let your creative mind do its thing. It may look like I'm daydreaming, but I'm actually working VERY hard!

THE WAY TO MY HEART THIS VALENTINE'S DAY: Painting of a heart with books inside.

Always!❤️📚

#Booksky #ReadingCommunity #WritingCommunity #Bookworm

Through it all - the rough draft roller coasters, the publishing nerves, the editing mental spirals - I am so, so grateful to be a writer, and to make some small contribution to literature. ❤️

That is all. Carry on.

Snowdrops hiding
Sad from the raindrops
Covering this lonely heart

Ahhh yes the submission pressure. That's a whole other roller coaster haha!

It feels like a "third cup of coffee" kind of Wednesday!
