Happy March, everyone! It’s the first Wednesday of the month, making it Insecure Writer’s Support Group day. But guess what? I’m not insecure! I am two chapters away from finishing my complete rewrite of book 1. It’s been over a year, and it’s not just some editing venture, but a full, from-the-ground-up rewrite. Characters have…

It’s a new year! (A month late) #IWSG
I missed last month’s Insecure Writer’s Support Group. Unfortunately, I didn’t have any great news of finishing my book or anything. Even now, I’m still about 17K away from The End (estimating it’ll be the same 170K length). But The End is in sight! I’ve written the scenes leading to the final battle, and soon…
Halfway There #IWSG
Happy Insecure Writer’s Support Group day! It’s July and the puppy is huge. Pictures don’t do him justice. He’s 4 months old now, and he’s probably close to 40lbs, if not more. The kids and I have been doing training, but the barking and jumping are things we have yet to break him of. Despite…
The Dog Ate My Brain #IWSG
Wow. It’s been a month, and I owe a lot of you visits. I’ve been treading water with all the things I need to do, all while keeping one eye and half my attention on the dog because he won’t stop chewing and digging and wreaking havoc. Even as I type this, I am shoving…
Changes, Changes, Changes #IWSG
Happy Insecure Writer’s Support Day, Everyone! I completely forgot about last month’s post. I blame all the March action. The trip to Costa Rica was a whirlwind, wonderful adventure with my daughter, then there were school projects and events, and well, April came and went. April also brought new additions to the Town’s End. Meet…
An Unfortunate Realization #IWSG
The first month of 2025 is already gone, and we’re once again at the first Wednesday of the month with Insecure Writer’s Support Group. I had to laugh because I looked up the question of the month and it seems like it was written especially for me. IWSG Question of the Month – Is there…
A Fresh Beginning But So Far Behind #IWSG
I failed to visit anyone’s blog last month. I know, I know. I am a crummy blog friend, and I will be sure to visit this week. The past couple of months have been overwhelming in my personal life, and I ended up slacking in my online presence. But the holidays are over so it…
2024 Comes to a Close #IWSG
November sped by. It passed way too quickly for me, and I can’t believe it’s already December. I had hoped to rewrite book 1 this year. I thought, since it’s already a finished book, it should be fairly easy. Alas, that isn’t how it’s turning out. If it’d been a matter of words, I probably…
Speeding through Summer #IWSG
Happy First Wednesday, All! Summer has passed in a flash, and we’re already gearing up for school here at the Town’s End. It starts in a week. Neither kiddo is really looking forward to it. My daughter is excited about moving to the next stage of education, but she is dreading waking up for the…
Older and Wiser #IWSG
March flew by for me, and I was busy with all the things from celebrating my birthday and having fun on spring break with the kids to less fun events that ratcheted up my anxiety to fresh new levels. But all my personal chaos aside, let’s talk writing. Rewriting book 1 is a bigger undertaking…
