The Overdue, Untimely, Yet Unforgotten Phoenix Post

I am alive. Working on pacing in the last third of this novel. Working on pacing in my life, so at least I have that meme going for me. Working on not being distracted by the news from the publishing world which increasingly makes my goal of being in print seem fantastical and naive. Working on [...]

Ghosts of Halloween Future?

We had an odd Halloween in the O’Hara household – one I didn’t see coming, even though it might only have been predicted for the last fourteen years. I mean, kids do tend to grow up and become independent. They hit the stage where they tolerate their parental units for the basics, like food, clothing allowances [...]

The Pictures Wherein I Make Us All Jealous about My Summer Vacation – I Was Actually There, Right?

In a totally non-writing-related post, I never showed you guys pictures from our summer holiday and if I don’t do it soon, the opportunity will pass. We went to Maui for ten days, stayed in a condo found for us by Resideo.com when I tweeted about my desire for a kid-friendly hotel. Modern life, huh? [...]

Planning Jan is Planning

Soft and limp — not words one typically associates with a romance writer, but this is my reality at present. In terms of the food prepared in the kitchen. On account of Molly’s oral surgery. Yes, peeps, my daughter had her wisdom teeth extracted on Monday. (Later I’ll do research because it’s not obvious to me why they earned [...]

Tart Unplugged

I love the Internet. I do. Without all the resources and communities it puts at my fingertips, I don’t think I’d be writing even as well as I do at present, or feel so connected to the writing community. Those of you who know me in any sense get how important those things are to me. [...]

Road Trip Math

Numbers don’t mean a lot to me. Until the moment that they do. Thus, a tale about a spring break trip, told through the vibrant and undervalued medium of numerical symbolism: #hours of sleep before road trip due to unsettled household — 4 #cups caffeine consumed to enhance alertness while driving — 3 #resulting bathroom [...]
