In the old days (not the good old days this time) when I went to the dentist it was a terrifying ordeal. It was before Novocain for drilling and back when they used jack hammers for drills. We lived twenty miles from our dentist, who was a family friend (at least he was my parents [...]
Okay, here’s the scoop, straight from my doctor to you. When you get a flu shot you do NOT get the flu. Flu shots or any kind of immunizations always make me sick. I can count on it. When I talked to my doctor yesterday (right before he gave me my flu shot) he explained [...]
My novel is done. Fortunately, when I got to the end of it I had over 50,000 words. I mean, when a story ends … it ends. I’ve been excited about it the entire time I’ve been writing, but whenever I’ve gone back and read what I’ve written I’ve thought “That’s not how it’s supposed to sound! It’s dumb!” I’m [...]

I have been up most of the night writing … writing, writing, writing. It’s almost 4:30 in the morning. And, darn it, I think it … just isn’t sounding like I want it to. I feel like I am rambling and using too many words, repeating too many phrases. Even though I’ve enough ”quantity” I feel it is [...]

Finally! I took the time to do a little browsing on the nanowrimo.org site and found the nifty logo to the left which validates my newly found satisfaction of commitment. When I first signed up it was only so that I could do it before the deadline … just in case. I actually was maybe [...]
