Good morning! A little late getting up this morn as a small band of Thor's Followers decided they would rattle the city gates before the sun rose. they were very quiet. All flash and no sound. Very pretty. ⚡️🌩️⚡️

Of Writers and Prose: How I write a novel. Pt 1.

How do I choose a story idea that I think is worth pursuing? That’s a good question, because while I have six stories in my writing queue, I have another ten that I’ve partially fleshed out, and out of those, five of them have several chapters already written out, so what was it, or what is it about these six in my queue?

Hey! This app is mobile!
I am finally back to writing. I took January and February off (not on purpose), and yesterday I finally got back into a story. Of course, it's the one that's been giving me the biggest headache, but it needs to be written.
Good morning! How are things in your part of the globe? We're in between winter storms. Was supposed to get one yesterday but it didn't make it as far as my city. Another one is supposed to hit us Friday. *sigh*

Adventures in Restaurants: A Milestone Celebration!

It’s been a while since I wrote a post about a restaurant visit, but to be honest, we haven’t gone out as much as we used to, so it was a nice surprise when Hubby took me out to dinner to celebrate me getting my driver’s license. Yes, I have not had one all this time, and my reasons are so many that I’d have to write another blog post just about it.

Okay, that's it for now. Have a great day everyone! Peace out! ✌️
This story has become so much more than just the antics of two teenage girls. Things are getting serious now, especially with Eva's older brother and her friend's older sister. It's almost as though it was meant to be this way, which isn't going to make anyone happy.
This week I'm working on the second book in my Eva and Skye series. I have to write about the aftermath of what happened last year, and there's going to be some unforeseen consequences from their little 'business.' I'm also adding in two more POVs.
I don't know if it's a Canadian thing, but people are in a better mood for the holidays if there's snow on the ground. I've worked in retail and restaurants and I've seen people's moods during this time of year. When it snows for the holidays, they're happier.
