New Year and More Promise





Happy New Year! I know I’m running late with this post. Being late is the story of my life nowadays, maybe I should make my resolution to be on time with things. I didn’t make any resolutions for the year. Should I have? Did you make a resolution, and have you managed to stick with it thus far? If you have, that’s great! You deserve a pat on the back and a gold star! You’ve made it through two months now and you’re on your third.

I have started in earnest on Magic’s Memory this time.  I’ve gotten a few chapters completed and about 11,000 words in. I’d like to finish it up by perhaps the beginning of summer or maybe the end of summer. The latest deadline is the end of the year. I have a few irons in the fire. Water’s Memory is in its third edit, and I’m trying to write and revise some short stories in the meantime. Is that too many irons for my fire? I guess ideas abound.

I am looking forward to what the year holds. There is new promise for reading, writing, and publication. I picked up Madeline Miller’s novel, Circe, and I’m reading it now. I have The Children of Blood and Bone waiting in the wings.  I’ll remember to write reviews and post them here when I’m done. Like I previously said, I’m working on a few projects because I’m feeling quite productive, and I hope to have some pieces published. Nothing fails but a try and time will soon tell. Catch ya later!

Happy Mardi Gras!

  It's that time of the year again, Fat Tuesday. Happy Mardi Gras! Everyone is enjoying themselves today, whether in Mobile or New Orlea...
