Howdy,December is in full swing. I am having trouble typing because my nails are long. I've been avoiding typing on anything including my phone - just ends up with a lot of backspacing and who wants to be doing that? These nails were supposed to last a day. Well, it's been five days. Anywho, yesterday … Continue reading So that happened …
Mystery
Destination Anywhere:
You get points if you know the album and bonus points if you've seen the movie. 🙂 Yes, it's Jon Bon Jovi. I've loved this album since it was released. I don't know how many times I've seen the movie ... I own the DVD. I love it. Anywho, it felt like a good album … Continue reading Destination Anywhere:
Bona fides not established
There's a bit of a flurry of writing happening at the moment. Mostly because I need this book finished in 8 weeks. Yesterday I went back over the 22 chapters so far and wrote backwards outlines. I was convinced I had no idea what was happening and who was doing what so it was time … Continue reading Bona fides not established
“I ain’t gonna be … in the crowd”
Any Bon Jovi fan knows, exactly what words are missing from today's blog title. 🙂 I am listening to Bon Jovi (imagine?) this morning, trying to find some energy for today. I need energy today for another long walk. That's six in a row. I am tired. Anyway, I did get some writing done this … Continue reading “I ain’t gonna be … in the crowd”
Promised Land
No secret that I love me some Elvis. Promised Land is way up there as one of my favourite songs that Elvis sang.Today was a really fun day. Always lovely to have a visit from Anne Barwell, one of our fabulous authors. Then, we had the filming for the Wellington Airport Regional Community Awards. Much … Continue reading Promised Land
How do you write?
Quite the question really. I'm always fascinated by how other authors do their thing. I know how I write. I know how stories come together for me. I know to trust my process because I've learnt to trust how my mind works. (Learnt is the correct word, I'm not American.) Doris was watching me work … Continue reading How do you write?
Don’t assume you know me
Read some of my books? Good for you. Then you've met SSA Ellie Conway and you're beginning to see how she ticks.Talked to me about anything? No? Then shut your cakehole. FYI: your opinion of my work isn't required and you sure as hell don't know what the motivation for any particular story was. News … Continue reading Don’t assume you know me
Am I writing?
I am, just not as much as I should be!I did get permission to use a couple of friends as characters and yesterday I wrote 2K. So it is happening just not fast enough. It annoys me when I can't seem to carve the time to write because I know I can, I'm just not. … Continue reading Am I writing?
Blinded by Rainbows
It's been pouring with rain all day here. The type of rain that floods the yard and street. The kind of rain that saturates shoes within minutes. I didn't even get to the bus stop with dry feet. So that was it for me. I refuse to spend the day with wet cold feet. That … Continue reading Blinded by Rainbows
Lookin’ out my back door.
Quite the understatement really. I went down with the flu on Monday, which was and still is my week. Don't know why I expected to be better by now, clearly, I was optimistic. If only that worked. COVID was annoying but this is downright misery. Since getting COVID on May 5th, I have unwittingly opened … Continue reading Lookin’ out my back door.
