Busy, busy, busy! August 28th, 2015. This blog hasn’t been a priority. Actually, it hasn’t even been on my radar, truth be told. And like a neglected puppy, it’s becoming a frail, flea-ridden thing of festering sores and patchy fur–woah, that’s getting a bit dark—ahem, anyway, let’s just say the website isn’t in the best of health. Perversely, the very reason for this is because my writing life has been getting more and more hectic over the last year. With the “Six by Six” gang. I continued working along...

The Log of the Antares: Coat
http://thelogoftheantares.blogspot.com/2015/07/coat.html
The Log of the Antares. Wednesday, July 15, 2015. That was the first word I ever read. All the books distributed, the teacher stood before us and asked, "Who can tell me what the first word is? Jim Morgan raised his hand. The teacher nodded to him and Jim said, "Coat.". I looked up at the books standing in the bookcase and I saw the future, that I would learn the words and one day these books would yield me their secrets. That was the first word I read. I never stopped. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Has talked quite a bit lately on her blog. But do we ignore the smaller differences? What if Han Solo hadn't been in that particular cantina? What if the Falcon. Had been caught by the Death Star.

Blank Sheet of Paper. Ernest Hemingway, when asked what was the most frightening thing he ever encountered, answered, "A blank sheet of paper.". Thursday, July 05, 2007. Well, I'm in the home stretch on Deception. I think I'm just about there. Miracle of miracles. But, before I pick up on writing that again, I'm going to set aside some time for revision. I'm nowhere in revising the Taggert Twins book and I'm going to have to start revising Deception. The good thing is that I've got all the big plot probl...

Blank Sheet of Paper. Ernest Hemingway, when asked what was the most frightening thing he ever encountered, answered, "A blank sheet of paper.". Friday, February 23, 2007. Agents who don't rep suspense. Why is it that the agents I just love - Nadia Cornier, Rachel Vater, Kristin Nelson, Jenny Rappaport, Lori Perkins - don't rep my chosen genre, suspense? And, yeah, I just totally felt like whining. Blogged recently about how your second novel should be published in the same genre as your first. The b...

Blank Sheet of Paper. Ernest Hemingway, when asked what was the most frightening thing he ever encountered, answered, "A blank sheet of paper.". Tuesday, July 17, 2007. Baby shoes for sale, never used.". Say what you will about Hemingway; I know he's far from my favorite author. In fact, I generally avoid his writings like the plague. But who else could write such a powerful story in under 7 words? Baby shoes for sale, never used.". What's your 7-word story? Labels: food for thought. Friend me at Myspace.

Blank Sheet of Paper: Fandom
http://heatherjanes.blogspot.com/2007/07/fandom.html
Blank Sheet of Paper. Ernest Hemingway, when asked what was the most frightening thing he ever encountered, answered, "A blank sheet of paper.". Wednesday, July 11, 2007. With the world in the throes of Harry Potter mania, what with the release of Order of the Phoenix. And it occurred to me that it seems that only sci-fi and fantasy works achieve the mega-followings in the world of entertainment. Look at the devotion of fans to Lord of the Rings. And the mother of all Fandom, Star Trek. None of this is t...
