I've been a lousy blogger and return visitor, and I hate it, but there wasn't much I could do about it. My alter-ego's life has radically changed.

Congratulations, Janet! :D

We're a prolific family, at least where writing is concerned.

These workbooks are designed for use by private schools, home schools, and individuals, and are available on Amazon .

Please stop by their blogs and say thank you .  My personal life is taking over with a vengeance , and my social media presence is all but non-existant . Bec ause my writing has come to a screeching halt, and my insecurities - both writing and not - are too numerous to list , I decided to re-post something to help you with your writing. It's an old post from in 2013 . It was aimed at people doing NANO, but it's for anyone wants tips to speed up their wri ting.

New Release - REVIVAL: The Donald Braswell Story by Mark Koopmans

I'm thrilled today to be part of Mark Koopmans' book release blog tour. Mark is a talented writer and a funny, kind guy, whom I'm grateful to call friend.
