it will be Biblical fiction again, not certain yet the direction it will go. Thanks for the interest - hope to have a book out by Christmas!

Thanks Cherei! I appreciate your kind words. I have one stand alone novel, Sewing for the Insane, and another Biblical fiction novel in the works that might be the start of a new series. It will be out later this fall and has no title yet. I so appreciate you taking the time to touch base with me!

Hello Cherei!
I have only dabbled with natural dyes, and mostly odds and end plants from my garden. The fabrics weren't very color fast but that was OK for craft use. Interesting to think about MT native plants for more of that sort of thing again and I will put that on my list for summer. I did go through a tie dye phase a decade or so ago, all with purchased dyes though. Creating fabric and paper is a great creative outlet. I once made a sheet of paper entirely from carrot pulp!
Thanks for asking and for reading!

Read good books, both on the craft of writing, and in the genre you prefer. And keep writing. Like all skills, it takes time and practice. We all have works we were once proud of that we now say, "Egads, I wrote that??"

I've never really had what I'd call a block. I usually have numerous directions to take a character and have to settle down and choose a route. As I am still a new author, I have ideas for novels down the road. And of course, no matter where I am in the writing process, add coffee and everything is clearer...
