Happy Halloween 2019!

Where did the year vanish to? Well, continued commitments, workshops in-person and online, plus a major sewing project, and a few writing projects have continued to take time away from drafting Karma & Chaos (the second in the series).

2018 New Year Update

A computer hardware failure necessitating getting a new computer, then having said new computer hacked within 12 hours of having it, plus losing wi-fi for a week,  the husband in the hospital for Christmas, and a host of other frustrations, well, things came to a grinding halt with Karma & Chaos, the second book in the Bonded Souls series that features Rowen, brother to the protagonist of Karma & Mayhem.

I'm also dealing with a 30 blog stop tour for REVISION IS A PROCESS, a book for writers on self-editing - http://www.writerscheatsheets.com/.
