Hi, all! It’s our 8th check-in for the Summer Writing Challenge. A little over a week to go to the end of July BUT not the end of the Summer Writing Challenge. I’ve struggled and I’ve soared in this past week. It’s all a matter of juggling the bad with the good to keep a […]

Hi, all! Herewith is our 5th check-in for the Summer Writing Challenge. We’ve started a new month; we still have the same goals.

5:26 / Summer Writing Challenge / 4th Check In June 26, 2024
Hi, y’all! It’s been a hectic week of the expected and unexpected again, with so many things swirling about that it’s best to call this Challenge episode “Spinning Wheels” or “Tornadoes”. “Spinning Wheels” seems more appropriate because I did gain headway in all three project areas. It’s a tornado, though, because—well, I’ll explain as I […]

5:25 / Summer Writing Challenge / 3rd Check In June 19, 2024
Hi all! We’re onto our third check-in for the Summer Writing Challenge. As usual, I’ve overloaded myself in contemplating everything that I want to accomplish for June and July. To complete everything may take me into August. And I’ve already encountered one problem that may require me to extend the Challenge into August. This means […]

5:21 / Wish I'd Known / Writing Retrospective May 22, 2024
This year and the next are celebratory years for me. I began publishing in 2015 and podcasting in 2020 (yes, that coronacoaster year). It’s time for a retrospective, totting up the gains, cringing at the worst failures (some of which will never see the light of day), and dwelling on the chief lessons. You know, […]
