Night Watchmen by Mark Mynheir
I just started this book this week and I just love it. I love the premise, the voice, the writing… I love the cynical, grumpy, handicapped retired cop! What a great idea for a character! Too many times the hero or cop is strong and handsome and well, your typical hero. But not Ray Quinn,…
Just Plain Weary…
I’ve gotten past the weary in the waiting part after almost two weeks of the blahs (due to a rejection, what else) and just when I feel I can pick myself up off the floor and leave my pity party (and actually start writing again) I get slammed in the face with another issue. Lack…
Homeschooling and Earth Day!
When I told my kids to play the Earth Game DVD, who knew it was actually Earth Day! It seemed like an easy and fun way to do school and learn about the earth and planet all in one. But it is Earth Day! I love it when things work out and I hadn’t even…
Recitals and Plays and Costumes, OH MY!
It’s amazing how much it costs to cloth kids involved in theatre and recitals! I don’t even want to think of those kids who are into pageants! I briefly looked into it when my kids were little, but the fees just to enter are outrageous. Most shows we do don’t cost us a dime! But…

Ready to Bury Digging Up Death!
That’s the novel my agent has shopped around and it seems like “Digging up Death” should never have been dug up! My latest rejection was pretty detailed and I heard that’s a good thing. Means I’m on my way… problem is it takes so darn long for me to write a novel, I might be…
Homeschool Ha Ha!
Teaching daughter (6) pronouns. I gave her some examples and said: “The man went to the store. What would you change the man to?” “A frog!”
