The part of being an indie author they don't warn you about when you start writing:
You have to maintain a social media presence. I seem to have a really hard time doing that AND writing at the same time. Maybe the same brain energy is for both.

I have been out of touch for a while, folks, and I am sorry for that. I Dream of Poppets has completely taken over my life.
Let's look forward to finally finishing writing it!

I spend my days thinking about this book,
I spend my nights thinking about this book.
But the moment I put mind to work, it screeches to a halt. WHY?

I just wanted to take a moment to breath quietly and was hoping some of you would join me. Things are overwhelming and chaotic.
Breathe, then back on the warpath. Whether in writing, life, or the care of our fellow humans, do it with fire and passion.

My new WIP--working title "I Dream of Poppets"--is a story of a world when humans never have to feel their bad emotions. Magical dolls, called poppets, absorb all the unwanted feelings.
What happens when a virus wipes out the poppet population?
