Merry Christmas
Wishing my blog readers a very Merry Christmas. May it be as you wish it to be. Don’t let stress in. Relax and do things at your own pace. Enjoy the day whatever you are doing. We’re having a quiet family Christmas at home and that’s just the way I like it. Dinner and then…
My Writing Life ~ Finished First Draft

My Writing Life – Drained After NaNoWriMo
It’s been a quiet week as far as writing is concerned. I’m ashamed to say I don’t have much to update you on. I’d say for some inexplicable reason, but I really do think it’s because of the amount of work I put in over November and NaNoWriMo, that I have been completely wiped out.…

Writing Crime – Formal Identification of the Deceased
This is a short post today. It’s an important subject but there’s not a lot to say on the matter.

My Writing Life ~ Working With Pain
Last week was the first week of this new series, My Writing Life, and I talked about the fact that I had started NaNoWriMo as well as having another project on which I was editing. Well, I ended the week on 11,009 words which were on track as far as NaNoWriMo was concerned. It had…
