On the finish line

By Unknown

Official CoverWorking on Witness to the Moon this week. I’ll definitely finish this book by the end of this week and then like I mentioned on Friday, I will start in on the Anora – Druid story. My extent of outlining for that story so far has been to play with questions like, What is her biggest challenge? What  does she want, and what stands in her way of getting it?

Not much in other words. I’ve been reading up on Druids to get a good handle on what specifics I may not know, but want to include, and what sort of research I may want to play with in the story. Otherwise I’ll probably go into this the way I have for most stories. I have a few starter bullet points that I put in a story notes spot at the end of the MS, and then I just start to write. Almost Into The Dark like Dean Wesley Smith, lol.

As typical my characters have decided that my plans for the end of Witness to the Moon aren’t exactly as I wanted them to be. Some of it is, but the information that I was thinking about saving until the third book just went kaput and dumped into the story today.

In other random news

I brought out my old cross stitch that my dad bought me before he passed away. I wrote a post on Instagram so I’m going to cheat and clip it to here. Other than it being harder to see the small holes, I forgot how much I enjoyed cross stitch. Not sure what I’ll do with it when I’m done. Either frame and hang it, or just put it away.

Tonight I’ll work on it some more since I don’t have much energy so I’m taking it easy.

Have you checked out the free preview of Blood By Night?

Ladies and Gentlemen….

Normally, right about now, I would feel inclined to continue with “and children of all ages” (guess I’ve been to the circus just one time too many) but this time instead of introducing some dancing bears or the Flying Wallendas, I’m simply here to introduce myself. My name is Tracie Dee . I’ve been writing for about 4 years now and got my start blogging on MySpace. I love writing but these days, I’m also finding enjoyment with vlogging. I have found that videos are a nice way to share what words alone might not give justice to and also for people to really get to know the person behind the words and the keyboard. Overall, I consider myself to be a pretty down to earth and upbeat person, whose sense of humor can be a bit wacky at times. Hey, life can be rough and sometimes laughter and levity can be our only saving grace to help us get through it all. I consider it to be our very own little light at the end of the tunnel that serves to remind us that even during the very worst

Bucket Lists

"Its never too late to be what you might have been" – George Eliot I’ve been a late bloomer in pretty much every aspect of my life. Some of it was out of my control (I mean I really couldn’t help if Mother Nature has a twisted sense of humor and exercised it heavily on me during my teens and twenties) but I can’t put all of the blame for it on her, either. Some of it was also by my personal choice. And by that, I mean I used to be very shy and afraid of “what was out there” in the big, scary world so I would rarely try anything new or took any chances of any kind. I chose instead to do my best to hide away from life, tucking myself away from it safely like a tight little rosebud that had not yet bloomed. But there is a quote that says “And the time came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.” This was the case for me. As time went on, my rosebud shell grew more and more uncomfortable for me. So one day I just took a c

Silent relaxing sunday--wait it's Saturday. A day lost and found! :)

By
This week's   GBE   is about "Lost and Found." I know a lot of people some years back thought that I'd lost myself. I was even told it was the better part of myself. It took me years to figure out that it wasn't true. Somewhere in the back of my mind, I always believed it to be true. Until I finally had the courage to admit to myself, that they were in the wrong; not me.  That's the problem with some "friends." They aren't really your friends. Someone recently told me something that really hit home. It was profound even.  She said:  "The friend is not a friend. just a person with emotional gravity in your life."    Well that's true. Granted, the comment she had made was from a completely different happening, but still it works.  A lot of people are fortunate in having tons of close friends, even close friends that stick around their entire lifetime. I gave up on that notion a long time ago. I realized that mostly, friends w
