It’s weird to not be reading a book tonight. Today, I finished The Coven by Harper L. Woods, but I don’t want to start a new one because Brimstone by Callie Hart comes out on Tuesday and I’m really looking forward to that one. #booksky

I needed a change of scenery to get over a rough spot in my book, so I spent a couple hours at Starbucks this afternoon. It worked.

I've been working so hard every day trying to get my romantic fantasy novel finished that I find myself not wanting to work on it at all now. So, I'm taking a break from it and will finish the screenplay I started last month. #scriptsky

While not really Halloween books, these two books from my Nathan Perry Mystery Series do fit the season fairly well. Nathan Perry's murder investigations pull him into an unfamiliar world rife with lies, deceit, magic, witchcraft, and lore to find the killers. amzn.to/2S9mZxn #booksky #writesky

I thought I had given up on writing a horror script at around page 30. Then, an idea💡popped into my head. This morning, I cut and slashed (no pun intended, who am I kidding, it was fully intended) and got it down to 20 pages. Now, I can enter it into Killer Shorts. #scriptsky

I found out today that the romance writers group I belong to is holding a Bridgerton themed Ball in December. I'm so excited. OMG, I need to go shopping! 💃👗👠❤️

#Spectember update. I’ve written 98 pages this month on 2 screenplays, 40 pages on the current romance. I likely won’t ever finish the horror, but I’m rolling right along on the romance. If I can do 10 pages a day, I can finish it by the end of the month. 🤞

I didn't make it to the second round of AFF, but from what I've seen on here, I'm still in good company.

Today, I was thrown under the bus by someone I thought was a good friend. I’m was both embarrassed and devastated. I ended up working on rewrites of a book to calm myself. That book always makes me feel better. Back to my script tomorrow. #scriptsky #writesky

#Spectember update. I give up. No, not on Spectember, but on writing a horror script. It was a challenge to write and I simply cannot do it. So, I have switched to working on a romance that I started about a year ago and it's absolutely rolling along. Total pages on it is at 18 + 42 of the horror=50

#Spectember update. I had a very busy day yesterday, so no writing. I don't know why, but I woke up this morning with a very sore ankle. Thanks to that, no gym today, so hopefully lots of writing on both of my projects.

Day 8 of #Spectember. I managed to finish six pages again today on my screenplay, totally 37 so far this month. Six pages seem to be the maximum for me before my mind starts wandering.
