It's been a terrible few days here in the USA. A shooter opened fire on a crowd of concert goers and killed at least 50, and injured hundreds more. Social media went wild with reports and speculation and videos...and of course, the usual fare of those who think no one has the right to own … Continue reading Truth Delivered with Soup…

Okay, so that's from Fantasy Island. But it just sounded better than "It's here! It's here!" LOL! (Is my age showing?)

It’s that time of year again, when writers roll up their sleeves and settle in for a month of serious writing. We set lofty word-count goals, gather our notes, clear our calendars, and pull up our chairs; certain that we have a best seller banging around in our heads and Camp NanoWrimo is just the … Continue reading Camp NanoWrimo 2016
Decades ago, when the internet was first becoming a "thing," the husband of one of my acquaintances would spend most of his day sitting and staring at a computer. It seemed that every time I visited, there he was, staring at this big clunky monitor with a glazed look on his face and I wondered, … Continue reading Baby needs some love…

When I set up this blog, Dust of Earth was in the earliest stages of its first draft. Only a few chapters into it, I was still figuring out names, places, and plot.
