I keep forgetting to post about it here but I started a blog. The 4th post came out today. It's a mix of short stories and me just talking about life.

The Man In The Snow: A Short Story
Maude Coleman’s family had lived in the Appalachian Mountains since they’d first arrived here with the Irish settlers. She’d inherited the family’s red curls and their magic. The people in this par…

Stayed up until 3:30 last night writing and got 2,000 words written. It got a little steamy (for my writing) last night

I got new plants! One has little mushrooms growing in it.

Also, does anyone know what these are.....?

Writer's block has had me stuck for a month but the first 2 panels of my knitting project is done so that's fun.

Book club, puzzles then baked a lemon meringue pie. Yeah, it's been a good afternoon

Rainy afternoons and a bit of front porch reading.

Resigned from teaching earlier this week, packed my room today and came home and took the best nap. Yeah, I made the right choice.

Here's to new futures

Some possibly exciting news: I'm leaving the school I'm working at once the school year is up. I'm tried to find a different school in my district or online teaching. But, I'm also getting my certifications to be an editor.

I want to do developmental edits but working on technical skills too.

Me: Titling, planning out and figuring out tropes for the duology I'm working on.

Also me: Now I've got to finish writing both books and not pants it too much.

Tried to work on this duology I've got planned but Miss Kitty had other plans.

She's been very clingy today.

Been a long couple of days. Doing a little knitting to chill. Spring Break is over and I have to go to work tomorrow.

Thinking of making my current WIP a series or a duo. I already know how I'd break them up and what I'd probably name them.

The owner of the bookstore was planning future events and has a Greek mythology ball on the list. Time to finish this mythology inspired story before hand so I can maybe ask to set up a table

Went to a ball over the weekend and had an amazing time. Now I don't want to do anything

This picture made me giggle. I sat in the cat too long. She had to come see what was up.
March 1, 2025 at 3:17 AM
3 cats are enough, there's no need for a 4th. Even if it looks like the beloved cat I lost in May after having her for 19 years.

My favorite Boba place finally has the strawberry popping Boba back! I was so happy I forgot to tell them half sweetness.

This is the most atmospheric picture of Frankie. Yes, he is quite tall.

We're on a remote learning day due to weather. I spent the morning grading papers. Stopped for lunch and my snow day coworker said it was break time. She's very persuasive.

Four main characters is a lot. Cassandra is supposed to be the Main Main Character but I also feel like she's too central in the other character's chapters.
February 2, 2025 at 6:06 AM
Didn't think I was going to get any writing done tonight but I have 300 words done in 30 minutes. I'm having trouble writing this character's chapters because I couldn't find her purpose as a MC but I think I have.

She's also my care free character and I don't want her to come across as annoying

Halfway through the first of 5 panels for this blanket. I'm fairly excited about it.
January 26, 2025 at 2:01 AM
Was leaning to the side and she decided she needed to make biscuits on my shoulder. I was in a really bad mood and she made me giggle.

Hello, I'm an indie author coming over from Threads and Insta just checking this all out. I intend to post about current WIPS, knitting, books, and anything that just sounds fun.

P.s. I'm currently reading Dungeon Crawler Carl.
