A Writer's Journey through the Maze of Life

Up, up and away in 2012



Another year. Each year I write down at least two writing goals. Most of the time I keep them. This year I not only want to finish my third novel, tentatively called Vestal Virgins, but I need to get back into my poetry. What is it about the two that do not seem compatible? My poetry is suffering atrociously. Maybe I can put on my Merlin cap and SHAZAM! write both.


Last year, Dec. 4th, I went to the Reynolds Library in Mountain Home, Arkansas for a book signing. There were at least 30 authors there and it was interesting to see what other authors were writing about.This is an annual event and one I look forward to. Check out the photo in the gallery.


This year I'm guest blogging at Joanne Troppello's site:http://joannetroppello.weebly.com/
My first blog is Jan 26th. Please stop by and check out her site.


Last year I guest blogged at my fantastic friend D'Ann Linscott-Dunham's site: WORDWRANGLERS (check the archives Dec. 13th) http://wordwranglers.blogspot.com/


This year, marketing and speaking engagements are going to take precedence. More about that to come.


What are your 2012 plans?

We did goal cards in our Sleuths Ink group. Here are a few of my goals: Finish my Pistol Packin' Pencil Pushers WIP; attend Bouchercon 2012 Conference for mystery writers (Mary Higgins Clark will be there);submit, submit, submit; AND take care of my website weekly. I also want to "dabble" in poetry this year.

I never realized you were so much into Westernalina. I love the subjects on your blog. Now tell me about this Pistol Packin' Pencil Pushers. Sounds like you'll be busy. Thanks for stopping by.
