Let’s talk Stone . . . and his intensity – a character study
I did a post a while back on the moment in the books that we’re introduced to Stone. I’m endlessly fascinated with Stone. There’s always more to find out. The way he looks, the way he acts, the way he thinks.
Free snippet Friday – UES
Working on Under Empty Stars today so I’m going to be sharing a snippet from the book. I am going through my deep edit round, which puts me far ahead of…
Quiet here
“Stone went down. Hard. The leaves raised from the ground and settled down as if a large tree had fallen.”
Free Friday Snippet from Under Empty Stars
The book I’m currently editing is Under Empty Stars. And today’s snippet will come from that book. Then there was her. The one who wouldn’t let him. Kept touching him, feeding him.…
The moment we’re introduced to Stone – free Friday snippet
Been a few weeks since I’ve posted a free Friday snippet. Apologies. Just a quiet time for me. Today, our snippet comes from the novel, Daughter of the Red Planet. This is the first time we’re introduced to Stone.
Where will it end

Eet’s meh 36th birthday
I’m so wiped. Had a tummy ache today this morning, which is always exhausting. On top of that, I’ve been trying to build a tall arbor for a climbing rose, not a wide one, so I’ve been digging posts a lot. Well, it’s one post, but I’ve had to dig multiple holes for it, haha. At first my idea was to use the post as a placement for the trellis, but then I realized that the end of the porch there is at a sort of angle. So when I make it straight out from the porch, it looked wonky.
So much going on today
Too much going on. Just word count. Word count I started Friday with: 53,266 Word count I ended Monday with: 55,761 Total for the day: 2,495 words Question of the Day:…
Over halfway with AS
I am now over halfway through editing Ancient Scars.
I worked in the yard this morning so I already feel wiped out and it’s only 1:30 pm. I’ve been cleaning up a corner where old lumber had gathered. The wood made a cave that the rats enjoyed bedding up in.
Love it
Got a full hour of writing in for a change, so my word count is incredibly nice. I’m liking it. Only just now got the dark wifi back on, so I’m…
Good amount of words
New planet, new things to explore. Well the planet isn’t new to us, since it’s Earth as we know it (though in the future), but my character Ellie has never been to Earth. She was born on Eli’ane, which is much like Mars to us in many ways.
Gush fest
Didn’t post this on Friday. I was tired, and had been printing out Under Empty Stars (166 pages!) as well as getting my newsletter ready, so I was a bit tired. Today was…
Halfway through UES so thoughts are on next to write
Hard to get writing in this morning. The dogs kept barking because my mother got up. Lucy sleeps with her and my mom has trained Lucy that when they get up,…
Puttering when new horizons are explored
Today was one of those days when things get stuttery. It’s not that I have a problem
When you force yourself to quit
Had to pull myself away today. The story was going so well, and things were just working out perfectly. The story was flowing well, the characters were feeding me .…
Close to release
My characters as usual, decided that they would go a different route in the story. I was thinking
