I have a closet muse. Really. She doesn't come out to help me when I most need it. Nope. She waits until I'm half asleep and prods my tired brain to think. Think! When I want to sleep. And here is the villain plotting all kinds of evil deeds in my current work-in-progress, Dreaming of the Wolf, and...

...a wondrous thing, don't you think? When I was sent a notice I had jury duty, I fretted about it. Not because I didn't want to do my civil duty. But because we are so short handed at work! Impossibly so. We've been working with only 2 of us for several hours a day and well, no way could one...

...it's really, really important, or at least it seems that way, and you can't find it??? What do you do? First, I can't find my current car insurance card yesterday morning, so I could send in my car registration. Finally find it filed away in the insurance file, of all things. Then I put the bill...

...you had reached the end of something? That you were completely done with a project? Ready to receive guests? Get on the road? Ready for work, or school, or something? And then found out you had to do one more thing? Or lots more things before you were REALLY done? I thought I had finished ...

As soon as I finish this blog, I'm going back to work. But it's not like I haven't been working all morning. I had to get my newsletter off. Do you know why? An anxious fan told me she hadn't received it last week on Sunday like I usually send it. :) I never know if anyone's really reading them,...

To make well rounded characters, even bad guys should have some goodness, to make they real, don't you think? And if they're the good guys, they need flaws that make them real. Sooo, what do you think? Good guy or bad guy? My beautiful book marks for the conference came in. It has Wolf Fever on...

Hopefully not! Yet the truth of the matter is that "being published" ...having a new release coming out...a contract that says your work is sold and will be published... is no guarantee that it will. Several authors I know who write for the NY publishers have had contracts for 2nd/3rd/4th...
