Even beyond elves running amok, the tenor of Vancouver was changing. And it always got worse before it got better, didn’t it? The trick was getting through the worst of it without losing anyone in the process. Or murdering anyone, I supposed. And I had yet to pull off that feat. – Dowser 8, Chapter […]
Me: The class schedule for Knit City 2018 is out. It looks like they have some great instructors! Michael: Do you get to fan girl? *teasingly* Oooh, is Andrea Mowry going to be there? Me: *narrows eyes at Michael**then, scanning further down the list, discovers that Andrea IS going to be teaching**gushing ensues* Ahem. And […]
… but I’m working through the editor’s (aka SFG’s) story notes for Dowser 8 today. Yep, this is what brainstorming a ‘missing’ scene looked like earlier this afternoon. I’ve also spent the day trying to convince myself that I have absolutely no need for a new iPad, even if I would totally have fun writing […]
I wrote this note to myself for Dowser 8 over a two months ago. Bring Freddie back? Where? It has been stuck to my desk through writing the third draft of Dowser 8, the entire first draft of Dowser 8.5, and the second draft of Mory’s novella in D8.5. Frustrated with it taunting me, I stuck it […]
Okay, I put out a call for cupcake names for the two new cupcakes featured in Dowser 8 last week. And you all submitted A LOT of amazing possibilities. I took some time this afternoon to short list a bunch of the suggestions, attempting to pair them together in a way that worked for me. […]
Two new cupcakes are featured in the opening chapters of Dowser 8. And, for the first time, I find myself slightly stumped about what to name them. Yesterday, after completing the first draft of Dower 8.5 and apparently freeing up some headspace, I decided it might be fun for a reader (or two) to get […]
I finally got Dowser 8 off to the editor (aka SFG aka Scott Fitzgerald Gray) for story editing this morning. Though I nearly lost my mind trying to output the manuscript from Scrivener (the software I use to write) into a WORD document because the compile function had been updated/upgraded. Anyway, an hour and half […]
Michael: *peering into a small pale blue box* “What are these?” Me: *glancing into the box on my way through the kitchen* “My salted caramels.” Michael: “Oh.” He glances mournfully at the box he is holding – which used to be full of chocolates he’d selected for himself – then down into a drawer that […]
