http://jeanddavis.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
The adventures of a writer fighting to survive the wrath of characters who have fallen victim to her editing knife. Tuesday, June 23, 2015. Summer is here. Sanity is somewhere over there. It's June, and that means its lovely outside in my little corner of Michigan. Am I out enjoying every minute of it? We have to take four more small trees out to finally get our business drive put in at the end of the month (yes, also a week away). This means that our towering brush. Work on the outside of the house cont...

For those of you who have made sad faces that I'm not sharing my May stories, I give you one of my old favorites from the dusty back burner file. Overmind’s query interrupted Observer’s study of the humans. “Are they ready for assimilation? 8220;Negative.”. 8220;To exist.”. 8220;They would disagree.”. The humans left the room on...

Discarded Darlings: May 2015
http://jeanddavis.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
The adventures of a writer fighting to survive the wrath of characters who have fallen victim to her editing knife. Wednesday, May 27, 2015. What better way to spend a long weekend. My congested head required lite reading, so I went for my usual (lately, it seems) romance-related fare. In three days I devoured Sherrilyn Kenyon's Born of Fire. And Bad Moon Rising. Got to love a writer that really knows how to put her characters through hell, literally and figuratively. Now, with my sci-fi and were-creatur...

Discarded Darlings: August 2014
http://jeanddavis.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
The adventures of a writer fighting to survive the wrath of characters who have fallen victim to her editing knife. Thursday, August 14, 2014. It's Summer, So Let's Talk Shorts. I've always considered myself more of a novelist than a short story writer, but my current publication record begs to differ. It's not that I don't try to publish my novels, they just take much longer to find a home and/or for me to set aside the time and energy to make a home on my own for them. With her encouragement, I started...

Discarded Darlings: January 2015
http://jeanddavis.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
The adventures of a writer fighting to survive the wrath of characters who have fallen victim to her editing knife. Friday, January 23, 2015. I was fortunate to have a mother who loved to read. But not to me. It was during answering this week's Author's Answer question. That I realized that while I was always surrounded by books as a child, they weren't mine. They do. Just don't let the hamster start chewing on the books. It makes parents angry. That would be a huge no. I don't recall my mother ever ...

http://jeanddavis.blogspot.com/2015/06/im-watching.html
The adventures of a writer fighting to survive the wrath of characters who have fallen victim to her editing knife. Tuesday, June 9, 2015. I'd intended to keep better track of what was before my eyes over the past several months, but I'm just going to come out and admit that I didn't. Why? After a long busy day, I'm busy trying to stay awake to watch the end of whatever we started when I was wide awake. We'll go down the list until my memory gives out. Arrested Development Season 5. After binge-watching ...
