With the Hubby and my daughter home I’ve been enjoying the family time. So I won’t be blogging until next week, but I promise to be back with great interviews, updates on my book, and of course hair! I’ll also be doing a few tweaks on the ‘ole blog, and updates on my FAQ page. [...] I’ve been working a lot on an embroidery project for my nephew. I love cross-stitching and embroidery, it relaxes me and I love to see a picture come alive from thousands and thousands of tiny stitches. My mother recently got a new sewing machine, and she’s been gathering materials together to go on a sewing [...] School is right around the corner. For me, that brings tears—some of joy, but mostly from fear. My only daughter is going to kindergarten. Most stay-at-home moms understand my fear. When you’re at home with your child all day, you create a bubble for them. Their knowledge of the outside world is created by you, [...] So on yesterday’s post I talked about how writing *every day* has made it hard for me to remember things.(*Yes yesterday I talked about the usage of the word everyday. Reason for my confusion—besides my obvious amnesia—is that when you intend to use either of the words—every day or everyday—as an adjective or a noun [...] Word Count: 27,679 Now before you frown up at that low amount, I haven’t started my writing today, so I’m hoping to hit 30,000+ by late this evening. So there. But am I on schedule? Will I hit my deadline? So far life is throwing me a few curve-balls to prevent writing as much as [...] I know, I know, I haven’t posted anything all week. You guys know that I suffer from sickle-cell anemia. I’ve been sick for over a week now, and I just don’t have the strength to blog. But no worries, I’m on the road to recovery so I’ll be back with great book reviews, author interviews, [...] So Wendy Williams is off the Dancing With the Stars. No, I’m not shocked. Her dancing was…less than inspiring. But it was the comment she said on her show after she got booted that got me to thinking. She mentioned that she thinks women can have it all. Things that make you go hmmm, [...] Yesterday, I pushed myself through a writing scene that was difficult to get down. In the middle of writing, I got so discouraged I almost wanted to delete the whole thing and start over. Writer friends, have you ever felt that way? I know I’m not the only one who feels that way at times, [...] |
I’m a Women’s Fiction writer with two novels under my belt, Six O’clock and Unbeweaveable. Curl Up and Write is where I fuse my two loves: hair and writing. You’d be surprised at the similarities! When I’m not writing, I’m watching How’s It Made with my Hubby (and pretending I’m not interested in learning how a tennis racket is built), or I’m reading to my daughter. I also dabble in gardening, love to cook, and watch way too much HGTV.  |
