This time of year gets so busy not just in our everyday lives, but for a freelance writer it seems deadlines creep up faster and there aren’t enough hours in a day.
I’ve been so busy with my three projects that I have had no time to do much about my blogs. I hate that. I [...]

Just a quick note to let you all know we will be out of town from today until Sunday. I am hoping to have wireless, but it might not happen.
In the meantime, the trip is a much needed vacation to work on my Nano Novel and another book I am working on. Both taking place [...]

NaNoWriMo - Still 13 days and counting…
As an avid writer, I tend to do several pieces of writing on a daily basis. When I am not doing my article writing, I am working on one of several various stories, essays, character sketches, plot or storyline scenes, free writing or even creative writing using creative writing [...]

Some of you know that one of my freelance writing jobs is for www.families.com (and the rest of you now know). Back on March 9th, all of the bloggers were given vacation for two weeks. I decided to play hookey from two other clients for the duration of that vacation so I could enjoy Spring Break with my kids. I kept up [...]

A Writing Excercise I’m Ready To Share. 
Although this happened a long time ago, and this was written about two years ago, I finally decided to share it. It was a writing assignment. We were asked to write about something that happened in our life that changed us, and was still painful. So here it is….
It [...]

I had to giggle today when I came across some things I wrote quite some time ago. It was a mixture of poetry writing, essay writing, short stories, and personal writing. (not all the same thing of course).
I kept asking who wrote this? And then, at the bottom of each piece, was my copyright and [...]

Isn’t it pretty? Mine looks JUST like it!
I cannot believe I forgot to post an update on the laptop. It actually arrived the day after I commented that it had shipped. And I’ve been in heaven ever since. In fact, I got everything transferred from our desktop computer to the laptop computer that day, and [...]

Ugh!
Well, the laptop shipped, which is so incredibly exciting. I cannot wait to get my hands on that little machine. I don’t think I have ever had an item so highly anticipated before. But then, when I would have gotten a laptop before, I was not writing professionally, churning out articles daily, writing new pages [...]

Oh the agony of now waiting for the laptop to get here. We considered going and purchasing one at the store so we’d have immediate gratification. But Mike insisted that no payment for six months and a low monthly payment after that was totally worth it and he’s right. We got a better computer because [...]
