Book One of Dead Husbands Never Looked So Good Series

Coming shortly: I am in the process of editing a multi-part blog entitled Losing a Loved One-A Personal Experience. It is time for me to return to the world of social media–the little bit that I do. Different graphics also to follow, except for the novel cover, of course.

For authors, aspiring and published, I am going to link to a recommended book about the craft of writing. I am currently reading one a teacher who attends my critique group recommended and will add that link for you. It is 1:18 in the morning as I write this and I need to be somewhat alert later today. My doxie is sound asleep; my cat is laying on the table beside me, her eyes drooping. ‘Tis time to say goodnight.

Pondering a Problem Scene

I like to lay in bed for about an hour after I wake up, thinking about a scene I’m writing. I picture it frame-by-frame—the visuals, the emotions of each character, their actions, what they think and what they say. A few days ago, I was mulling over a scene that takes place after my protagonist… Continue reading Pondering a Problem Scene

Taught Dialogue Class at High School

I taught a Dialogue 101 class yesterday to a high school creative writing club. It was an interesting experience. Half of the class interacted, the other half did not. School sure has changed in xx years (I’m not telling how many years). I guess the days of all the desks facing the teacher’s desk at… Continue reading Taught Dialogue Class at High School
