Well, despite Mexican Food issues, yesterday turned out to be a great day.
First off, I received the thumbs up from Deidre on the synopsis for my current WIP. She was very excited about it and that really fueled my motivation.
Then, I had to leave work early thanks to the afore mentioned Mexican food, so I [...]

"Pressing" matters
Posted in Uncategorized on March 30, 2006 | 2 Comments »
I live in Mississippi and I’m so glad to know that my lawmakers are spending my tax dollars and their quality time on the important things. I mean, honestly, I’ve been growing more and more concerned about the influx of the three-dimensional-genitalia-devices this state has seen. We need to nip this trend in the bud. [...]
Ready. Set. Write!

I’m getting my hair cut and colored today, so I took the afternoon off. Then I looked at my workload and realized I could take the whole day off without any real problems. So, this morning, I’m perched on my futon in the office with my mug of coffee and my laptop. [...]
Paying it forward for a REAL hero

Get ready to vote.
My friend, Terri Garey, is calling out for a favor.
As writers, we know all about heroes. Well, Terri’s brother-in-law is a real life hero and this is your chance to say thank you to him. He is a Federal officer who works on the FBI’s Innocent Images task force, tracking down internet [...]

Well, I gave in and finally got myself a My Space account.
So, if you’re also a member of My Space–make me happy and friend me.
This is all I needed…one more distraction. LOL

Good luck to all my friends who entered the GH and Ritas this year. I have my fingers and toes crossed for you!
Extra fingers crossed for Maria Geraci. She has written a helluva regency-set historical. It came close to finaling last year. Anyway, this story deserves to not only final–but to win.

fishdog’s flophaus: what a trip
Or, as I like to call it– A day of firsts.
#1 boy’s 1st real concert, 1st sex talk, 1st time getting patted down, 1st hubcap burger–all in one day.
And there are some pictures, too.
It’s a little long but very enjoyable–as only my husband could make it.
more on collages…

Are you sick of this topic yet? Well, tough noogies. This is my blog, dammit. Read it and like it.
Okay, so I may be a collage convert. It’s not going to be for everyone, just like doing Q&A sessions with your characters isn’t for everyone.
But, I’m trying to become a Plantser. Or mabye thats a [...]
Collages–or how to turn magazine scraps into inspiration
Posted in Uncategorized on March 20, 2006 | 7 Comments »
So, I mentioned earlier today that I did a collage for my current WIP this weekend. I know that Jenny Crusie and Barbara Samuel are big fans of the collaging thing, but I was very skeptical.
First off, it’s very difficult for me not to analyze why the hell I’m clipping certain pictures. Turning off my [...]

Misc.I’m sleepy.
It’s rainy here and we’re supposed to have thunderstorms later today.
A cute guy in a celery green shirt just walked by my office. I don’t know who he is but I should find out.
We have lots of outta-towners in the office today. It’s loud. I don’t feel like dealing with loud.
See, the stupid architect [...]
