I’ve been meaning to (mention that is). I went in early March with a local friend who’s also a member of Romance Divas. We got a little lost because we needed coffee but we found our way eventually. The ladies at the meeting were super nice, and neither my friend nor I were [...]

They have grass…and trees.
So, I just got back from vacation. I was in San Antonio. They have grass there. It was interesting. I went outside. I don’t really do that. When I lived in Colorado I was a very outdoorsy person. But in New Mexico I just can’t bring myself to tromp around amid the rocks and cacti. [...]

Evolving Taste
Recently, I confessed a childhood crush I had on Dirk Benedict. I fell for him when he played Lt. Starbuck on Battlestar Galactica and grew more enamored with him as he played Lt. Templeton “Faceman” Peck on The A-Team. I also had a thing for Larry Wilcox, who played Officer John Baker on CHiPs.
My admission [...]

Just look at this perfect little round baby head…and after [...]

the tribulations of a writer
I swear, the past 2 weeks have been pure hell Earth. I have not had time to scratch my nethers let alone do any blogging. My writing is in upheaval of a good but frantic kind, Spawnetta is moody, Damien and The Omen are on a mission to drive me insane, my DH is doing [...]

Nathan Bransford’s valuable words
He has a writing lesson today (plus bonus Princess Toadstool reference). I do not. The blog’s really good, though, so I recommend checking it out: http://nathanbransford.blogspot.com/2009/03/what-do-your-characters-want.html
In the meantime, I’m recovering from over-indulgence in beer bread, boiled supper and mima’s IN SERVICE (which I also highly recommend).

What A Girl Wants
In the scene you’re currently writing or editing, what does your heroine want and why? If you heroine isn’t in this scene, go back to the last one she’s in.
