I'm happy to be back. It's been a challenging year for me, which I'll talk about another time, but I am just happy to be feeling happy and in the holiday spirit today.
I hope everyone else is doing well too!
As a little love to my friends I've put the Kindle edition of my book, Pain by Proxy on a sale through the 30th.

I'll be back soon, when my people leave town, until then stay warm and filled with joy my friends!

Vacation Days
I'm excited for a four day weekend coming up. It's been a long week at work, even though it was only the three days.
I've had "writing" at the top of my "must do" list for so long, but now that the book is out (did I already say that? IT IS) it feels odd to have a long weekend and not feel the pressure of writing.
I had a few moments when I thought - Do I really want to be a writer?
The answer was yes, but it felt interesting to run the idea around the track.
I do see that I need to have some creative balance, and explore other activities that can feed my energy and feel fun and adventurous rather than like a job.
So this weekend I'd like to start thinking about other creative projects I might enjoy.
So friends, what creative activities fill your soul?

Book Video - Oh Boy!
I made a little book video. My first video ever - I don't think I need to tell you the cats may never live a quiet life of solitude again.

Nervous and Excited
The date for the book release is drawing closer and I feel nervous and excited for it to arrive. I'm working on correcting a few little things in the files and making a book video.
Part of me wonders if a book video helps at all... what do you think friends?
Do you like to have a little author insight into a book you're reading?
After you've read it?
Do you like knowing what the author of a book looks like?
Thanks for participating in my ramble for the day!

And We're Back
It's been a long time since I've posted on this blog my friends. I can't say I'll post too often. How about, I'll post when I feel compelled to say something, rather than feel compelled because of some external force.
Today I'm posting to say my book, which began as a screenplay is about to be out. Pain By Proxy is up for pre-sale on the e-book stores.
It'll go live on the 16th of April and I'm super excited... and a little scared.
It's been such a long journey, and it hasn't been easy, and now for better or worse, it's over. I worry that I'm throwing a party and no one will come. I suppose that's the way you always feel when you finish a creative project.
You put your heart and soul into something, and then you put it out into the world to find it's place. You hope it'll find acceptance, and no one will take it's lunch money.
In these moments of fear and doubt, I wonder why I felt it necessary to do it at all... because I did feel it was necessary. I tried to ignore the call, and it wouldn't leave me. I have to trust there was a reason, and a purpose, and give up my fears.
So off into the world you go, little booky. Play nice with the other books! And if anyone's mean to you, well you know what to do - I made you strong and capable of kicking butt for a reason.

Isn't the cover pretty? My big sis made it! |
