I have been remiss in keeping up to date here. My main excuse is the switch to the Dvorak keyboard layout. I got out of the habit of messaging, emailing, and posting when I couldn’t freakin’ type! Regardless of the slowness (which I have to admit is improving,) the Iditarod story is plodding along. I [...]
First, Need is posted. Don’t read it at work! I won’t be responsible for the results! Second, I’m cruising my friends list, and found this wonderful gem from chuckdarwin. It’s hilarious!
Spent the last three days working on a short entitled, Need. It’s a companion piece to Want. I’ll post it later tonight. I had planned to go to Coffee People to write. Unfortunately, my Palm is half out of juice, and I still have errands to run. So, I'll do a Stop N Go to [...]

Their kitty furniture was taken down last night, and out the door. A friend is recovering them. So poor cats have no [...]

Chapter one of the Iditarod novel will be in the can by tomorrow morning, and I hope to have a good [...]
As expected, now that I'm not forcing myself to work on the Sanguire, I busted out 1k worth of outline in an hour. (Of course, the Velvet Hammer at Coffee People didn't hurt!) I'm now going to practice my Dvorak by typing the outline into Notetaker, and expanding it a bit. Also went through Tiopa [...]
. . . but it's time to post (regardless of the painfully slow Dvorak edumacation.) Despite an extensively researched world, regardless of the existence of a fluid and complete outline, I am at an empasse as far as the Sanguire series is concerned. This does not mean the story stays where it lays! I still [...]
