Howdy

After discussing the sheer size of the Iditarod novel with my publisher, I’ve decided to go ahead and begin edits of the manuscript for submission.  I expect to add an additional hundred to hundred and fifty pages to the monster as I beef up the romance.  I also plan on giving the main characters more […]

Far from her Alaska home and the dogs she loved so much, four-time Iditarod champion Susan Butcher died Saturday in a Seattle hospital.
She was 51 years old and the mother of two young daughters. She had been waging […]

Backpost 2

Well we’re STILL on the train. Should be arriving at Salinas soon. We’re officially 8 hours late. I’m REALLY hoping my friend checks the Amtrak website before heading into LA to pick us up!
But things haven’t been too boring for me. I’ve just finished a complete read through of the […]

Backpost

(I wrote journal entries on my iBook throughout our vacation, but didn’t have internet access. I’m now posting them here with their time and date stamps.)
Still on the train. I’m writing on my iBook to keep things fresh in my mind, and I’ll be posting them at the time and date stamp I’ve […]

(And I just discovered my caps shift doesn’t work with my iJournal on this iBook. Bummer. I’ll update at the website.)
LOTS been happening here. Mostly work. But this next month is supposed to be slower than molasses so I’ll have some extra days off. Not good for the paycheck, but […]

Lazy Day

Spent the morning updating my website. In particular, correcting the information and links on the pages about my books, adding a review on Tiopa (thanks, Elaine!) and checking the links in my sidebar.
Tonight’s Mother’s Night. Tonight is when the membrane between the worlds of the living and the dead are at […]

Thank gods. 2537 words today, chapter twenty-nine of Orphan Maker is complete. My outline has gone the way of the dodo bird, though, which has been part of my hang up. Getting too invested in these outlines it seems. If I open up the document these days, I don’t even bother […]

As promised

The final chapters of Iditarod are up.
I’m off to Bardcon in Orlando. Here’s hoping Wilma takes a siesta. See you all next week!

Iditarod Updates

Two of them this time - effectively four chapters. If you’re hooked, head on over.
As I’ve stated before, I leave on the morning of the 20th for Orlando. I’m going to post the final four chapters of Iditarod Wednesday night so no one is left hanging over the weekend.

And I write. 1952 words, chapter twenty-six of Orphan Maker is complete.
Also ran errands today. Picked up my month’s prescription, did some banking, and went to the audiologist to pick up my new ear molds. There’s a definite improvement in hearing with them. The rubber and plastic get old and less […]

Chapter anyway. Still about 120 words light, but maybe I can beef it up a bit tomorrow when I review.
Gwen and the Loomis clan are in Lindsay Crossing for the festival. She runs into her ex, Weasel. It’n not pretty. He imparts some information about her new friends, suggesting that one […]
