Burning Up the Road Again
It seems Hubby and I cannot stay home for any length of time. We got back from our winter quarters, and a week later, we’re headed east to visit South Dakota State University. This trip had a purpose other geocaching although Hubby did that too. We took the time to meet with Hubby’s high school […]
It’s Not Finished Yet
Three weeks ago, I told you my new book, Walkers on Water, was finished. I should have been more specific. The interior of the book was finished. During the past three weeks, I’ve formatted the interior, waited on the cover designer to finalize the covers, and, worst of all, I loaded everything onto different platforms […]
A Trip Back
Hubby and I traveled to Baird to see my folks for a couple of days. We’d seen them at Christmas when our daughter and son-in-law met us there. We’d cooked a couple of big meals and had a fun time visiting and such. Seeing my parents these few weeks later, it was jarring how far […]
Crazy People
As anyone who follows me knows, my Hubby is a geocacher. That means he uses a multi-billion-dollar satellite system to pinpoint the location of all sizes of what otherwise would be thought of as litter that has a paper inside it he can sign to prove he found it. Then he uses his $XXXX laptop […]
Another Busy Time
This past week and a half have been a whirlwind of activities that kept me running (figuratively, not literally). I said yes too many times and paid for it. The South Dakota Festival of Books is a very large event where over a hundred writers from all over are invited to speak and sell their […]
Hubby’s Hobby
Do you know what geocaching is? It’s a recreational activity where you tap into a billion-dollar satellite system to get GPS coordinates to hunt for hidden objects. Those objects can be as small as the end of your pinkie to as big as an ice cooler. Geocaches are hidden all over the world under logs, […]
Wild Deadwood Reads
I’m resting after attending my third year of Wild Deadwood Reads, an author learning and book signing event in Deadwood, SD. It’s a day and a half of workshops, and this year’s were exceptionally good. I learned a great deal including new marketing techniques and how to write dialogue that moves the story along. Everything […]
Some Days Are That Way
It’s one of those days when my brain is sluggish and doesn’t feel like writing. While it may be a sign of aging, it may just be I’m lazy. Once I get set down at my desk, the computer between my ears perks up, and I get a few things done. I keep plugging along, […]
