Merry Christmas

A belated Merry Christmas to all. As we rapidly approach the New Year I am thinking about my New Year resolutions. The few that come to mind year after year are the always the same:

1. Continue to be a good person.
2. Exercise more.
3. Write more.
4. Grow.

This year I have added - get my website up and running so I can begin to post bits and pieces of my current novel.

Happy New Year!

Winter Solstice

For all you creatures of the night this is the day you have been waiting for- enjoy it. Personally I love more daylight and less night so summer soltice is my favorite day of the year.

Happy Winter to all!

To love Two Vampires?

Florida was gorgeous. 85 degrees and sunny. Nothing like writing on the beach between reapplying sunscreen and going for long walks to collect sea shells! I think I have the ending of my novel in sight. Already thinking of a sequal which may not be a smart thing to focus on right now since I have to finish this novel and then comes the fun part - editing. My female lead has become the lover of one vampire and caught the interest of his best friend, anther vampire of course. Kinky I know but hey, this is where this novel had taken me. Once I have it all written I ususally put my pieces down for anywhere from two weeks to a month and then I pick it up again. Somethings are glaring and only by rereading it after some time has gone by do I see errors in plot that I may have missed the first time. The big questions for me concerns what I am visualizing vs. what is on the page. Is it clear? Does the piece say what I want/need it to say? Are the characters three dimensional or are they flat? My main character has enough problems having not one but two vampires in love with her....such is the life of a story book character.
