Writing is hard work. I think I've mentioned that before, but it really is hard work. You have to come up with an idea, write down some stuff you can say about the idea, make a tentative outline, do any research needed, and sit wherever you sit to write. A good catch line is important.… Continue reading Working on the Chain Gang…

OH! The Places You’ll Go!
We were in Las Vegas, NV at the Fanboy Con, this past weekend. Neither of us enjoys LV, but our cousin lives in Henderson, so that was the highlight of the weekend... Dinner with Joanne, Chris, and Chad! At the same time, we met fun people at the convention, particularly John Wayne Comunale. He writes… Continue reading OH! The Places You’ll Go!
We’re Going Our Own Way
The Verde Valley Comic Expo was amazing. TJ and Elizabeth had a great time, sold a few books, and met a bunch of great people. Their friend, Duann Black came up and hung out.

Welcome to the Danger Zone!
I stood in our back yard waiting for the doggos to do their duty (doody?), the sky is brilliant blue. I do not hate the winters, here, in the Valley of the Sun. Mid-winter has commenced. Weather in Phoenix is pretty nice. Against common sense, I am hoping for more rainy, cooler weather. The temps… Continue reading Welcome to the Danger Zone!
Homocide’s my favorite venge
What? This cool rap song is by Ice-T. I don't listen to rap, but I thought it would be apropos to start with this cool song title. The hubby and I are collaborating on a murder mystery. It is totally out of our usual genre, but we both love watching mystery and crime dramas in… Continue reading Homocide’s my favorite venge

When Will I See You Again?
Howdy, folks, family, & friends. I have to say, writing is dirty work. I've probably told you this before, but it never hurts to say it again. Each segment of a story has to be thoroughly thought through. (see all those th's?) First your idea, or in TJ's case, his dream, then a pseudo outline,… Continue reading When Will I See You Again?
