Writer of gritty suspense with a touch of humor, romance, and spice mixed in. Too old to learn a new social media platform. But here we are.

If anyone read over my shoulder at the playground, they’d probably call the cops.
Gotta write when I can. Even if that means sex scenes at the playground after school 😩

It’s 12:34am. Should be sleeping.
Had a cold brew at 3:45 though…
Made myself put the computer down and get in bed but about to open up the file on my phone and keep writing. Because when the inspo hits, you can’t deny it. No one wants creative blue balls.

So. It was May. And now it’s almost August. And I don’t really know where I’ve been or what I’ve been doing (that’s a lie. I’ve been momming and day jobbing and swim coaching and summering.) But I’ve missed my writing self. So here I am.

Got to the end of editing my draft to send to editor… and decided that wasn’t the end… 10k words later and maybe I’ll be done in another 5k? Whoops?

10 years ago I thought I made a friend on the 🐦 app & I joked we were too old to be hitting on a particular pair of young singers.
She got extremely offended I called us old.
Now every time I hear the damn song I relive the embarrassment and confusion of that moment.

Unsettled, ‘I’m forgetting something’ feeling is giving me the internal shaky, can’t-sit-stills. And no idea why.
Can’t imagine it has anything to do with the two books (one audio one kindle) I’m right at the climax of but haven’t had a chance to finish. No, can’t be that.

There was some kids book I had about different places in the world & there was a page that had people eating dogs & that about ruined my entire childhood.
First book to make me cry (but i ❤️ it) once I was like a semi-fully baked pre-teen at least… Where The Red Fern Grows.
DO WE SEE A PATTERN?!

Screw your favorite book, which was the first that upset you?
A Wrinkle in Time was mine. The possessed baby scared the everloving shit out of me. My babysitter had to call my mom to come home early because I was hysterical.

Thoroughly enjoyed some sunshine (finally), fishing, new sandals, TWO blue herons, and getting addicted to my first John Marrs book (like holy crap) yesterday.
And I was the only one to catch anything. So I also won. Which is most important.

I wrote my first book in 1st person. The whole thing.
But then decided it would be better in 3rd person. So I heavily edited to make it so.
All 6 of my published books have been 3rd person.
Now I’m experimenting with 1st again on a new project. It feels like a totally different art form…

“Artists don’t WANT shortcuts” hit my soul like a line drive ✍️
When I was in the music industry I said we had two kinds of people.
People who dreamed of being musicians and people who wanted to be rock stars.
With writing we had people who lived for the experience of writing. And those who clamored for the title of author.

“Hello?”
“Mrs. Stanton, it’s Investigator Clark. I hope I’m not waking you.”
“No, sir,” I said instinctively and he cleared his throat.
“No rush, but we are ready for you to come down to the morgue.”
“Great,” I slapped my forehead in disgust of my automatic response.
