I took bookworm and made it mine, decided that geek meant smart, and tried with all my heart to transform the sorrow and pain and rejection and mockery and bullying into a badge of honor.
Married. Married is WONDERFUL. Duane Reid, I wouldn't trade these last eight years for anything in the world.
I assumed I must be crazy, which I think is the default for any of us who go through something and keep it to ourselves.
I know what comes next. I just don't have the brain-space to write it.
My mom may be gone, but I refuse to honor her memory with sorrow. Today, I celebrate life.
I've been tagged to answer questions on my writing process. A cat-gif is included to keep your attention.
Do I need to elaborate? I don't think I do. (Dedicated to fellow-writer, Quenby Olson.)
Please understand that I LOVE this laptop. It has always done everything I asked of it, and that's why this particular problem is so disturbing.
You may have noticed my absence. Never fear! It is due to Writing Focus, which tends to produce good things. By the way, I will be offering The Christmas Dragon free via the newsletter, and it will also be briefly free on Kindle.
I made out like a bandit this Christmas. My amazing husband got me a Doctor Who t-shirt (photos to come), and Celine Chapus drew me Aakesh!!
With everything that's gone on in the past couple of months, it comes as no surprise that I wasn't able to write.
Warnings: this is COMPLETELY unedited. There will be typos, clunky sentences, and entire segments that will not make it to the final product. Still want to read? Brave. I knew I liked…
See that guy up there? Want to know why he's so awesome? Well, here's is a list, in no particular order.
