On some updates

I'm having a lot of fun outlining where to take my stories, and doing the exercises in Holly Lisle's Writing Flash Fiction That Doesn't Suck. Flash fiction stories are stories that remain under 500 words. It's interesting to do the exercises and see what my brain comes up with. I've been doing short stories since I was . . . young. Don't remember when I started. I was inspired by those books, Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, and More Scary Stories to tell in the Dark. I thought . . . I can do that!

I finally figured out where I will share the free Immortal Separation chapters once I'm done editing them. I redesigned my other site that I quit using in favor of just using this one for everything. I cut it down to the barest I could to keep it functioning. Removed the title, the search, and even the share. Because it's meant to be used to read those exclusive shares, and nothing more.

If you haven't heard about it, I plan to release one chapter of Immortal Separation every week once the edits are all finished. I will only release them in my newsletter (with a link) that will allow you access.

Back to editing!

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...

(GBE 2:Blog On) First Love

Old post being reposted. GBE2: Blog On's Topic this week is: First Love Click the link to find out what GBE2: Blog On is and how YOU can participate. If you love writing and/or blogging, it's the place to go! Great people, great fun, what more could you ask for? FIRST LOVE When I first saw the topic for this week's GBE2, my first thought was of the friendship I walked away from just last week. He was one of my first love's. But I had already talked about it on a previous web post so I wanted something different. I just didn't want to focus on it. Today, while I was doing dishes, a.k.a inspiring myself, I thought of a different first love. To myself. I do too. I love myself. I may not always like myself... I mean come on, if you had to live with her 24/7 she might drive you batty too. But I do love myself. People can tell you so. I don't need to. Well I did, but... I'm digressing. I'm quirky, crazy (two different things there obbb...
