But What If It’s Bad?!
Posted on August 14, 2018 Leave a Comment
Yeah. I’m going to be blunt. I’m afraid to start editing Tilt, book two in The Flying Ponies trilogy because, GASP! what if it’s bad? Having gone through the editing process last year starting around this time with Lift, book one in the trilogy, I know it’s not fun. It’s not supposed to be, I don’t think. Oh maybe, if you […]

Lift is done with revisions! It has officially gone to the publisher to be formatted into both trade paperback and e-book forms! Thank you to my wonderful editor, Kat Szmit, of One Wicked Wordsmith – you rock! K. R. Conway of Wicked Whale Publishing is working on the cover art and the book formatting now. […]
Lift Off!

So just a quick announcement: Lift has been completely edited, and emailed to my publisher. After she reads it, I may have to make some more edits, but even so – Lift has left the desk! It has been a huge undertaking. Writing a book is largely a lonely endeavor. It’s just you, some notes, […]

It’s beautiful outside today. It’s 71 degrees (according to my weather app on my Android), and there’s a breeze playing through the trees outside my window. The trees are starting to change, finally. With all the rain and wind we got here in west Michigan last week, I wasn’t sure there’d be any leaves left. […]

I think it’s finally spring here in west Michigan. The birds have been returning, led by the robins and geese.

But the grass is greening up, the horses are finally shedding their heavy winter coats, and the ORV park […]

So I know I haven’t updated this website in quite a while, and I apologize for that. I do, however, have some big news about the Flying Ponies. I finished the first book (as yet untitled) on Valentines Day, and am letting it sit for a few weeks before taking on the task of editing […]
Shushing the Darlings

So I don’t know about anyone else’s characters, but when I’m editing, mine like to try and tell me how to do it. “Oh, you don’t need to take that part out.” “Yeah, take his line out. I don’t like listening to him.” Of course, it doesn’t help that my two MC boys in Peril […]
