Tuesday Update

Love that wonderful diary entry title. Fascinating subject header, isn’t it? Okay, creativity isn’t my high point right now. In fact, creativity seems to be a low point, along with my low energy. I thank my latest cold bug for that, as well as the very disorienting doses of Sudafed. What is in Sudafed, Actifed, […]

Turbulence

I’m a good flyer. Considering the fact that I have some serious issues with flying. Like having to sit in a narrow seat with people’s shoulders and elbows touching mine. And sitting in a seat where the seat in front of you rests in your lap. And sitting in a hard uncomfortable seat restrained by […]

Doctor’s Orders

I’ve been in and out of the doctor’s office lately and I’ve been given a big fat lecture along with a moratorium on travel. Apparently my body needs to stay home, get more sleep, feel less stress, and find an immune system again as the one I used to have went on holiday and never […]

Ahem

It has been brought to my attention–thus the ahem–that I haven’t updated my JaneBlog in quite a few days. Concern was expressed. A new blog was requested. I am fulfilling request although, ahem, I’ve nothing to say that’s funny. There is painfully ironic. There is ridiculously depressing. There is poignantly touching. And I don’t know […]

Mommy Mutterings

Give me my kids. Wow. That didn’t take long. I just blipped the entire blog in the first line. I miss my kids. Haven’t seen them in twelve days as of today. When I booked my ticket to Hawaii I thought I’d return to have them for Sunday and Monday over Labor Day weekend but […]

Blue Hawaii

I’ve been in Hawaii nearly a week and having a really good time. I love having my own car here, helps immensely with the sense of needing to belong, and yet of feeling independent. Having my own wheels means I don’t have to go down to the beach when everyone goes for the lessons, and […]

The Old Jiggity-Jig

I love vacations because you get to unwind. Sleep in. Eat real meals. And in Australia we had such lovely meals, starting with rich mochas and lattes followed by plates of eggs, bacon, sausage, tomato, mushrooms, and heaps of buttered toast. We didn’t go hungry in Australia. And we didn’t really think about the consequences. […]

Over At Blogger…

I’m keeping some of my 5 Spot authors company with the new The5Spot blog. And what the heck is 5 Spot? It’s an imprint. Um, an emblem on the spine of my Flirting with Book. A…thing. But I just added a post there, my second blog with them ever. I like that place because I […]

That’s It?!?

I can’t be home already. I was only just leaving, just arriving, just skipping about Australia having the most marvelous time. How can I already be back in the Pacific Northwest? How can my trip be over? How can two weeks just…well…fly by? The trip went so smoothly, too, each and every hotel was great. […]

Laying It All Out There

I just finished giving my first talk here at the Romance Writers of Australia’s conference on the Gold Coast and I had lots of lovely people tell me afterwards I did a great job, and how much they appreciate me sharing so much of my own life, and maybe it’s not what I should do, […]
