Sorry it's been a while. I've been in writing purgatory. Had a bit of work to do on myself as a writer. I'm working on the follow up to Safe Place. You can expect to see a new book in Fall 2021. I started a different series (Biggs & Myer) and am in the middle of writing book three of four.(less)

I freewrite. An example:

Jane couldn't breathe. Any sound would mean her death. The crunch of leaves under the hitman's boots confirmed her fears. [And for some reason, my brain has just taken a vacation, come on synapses fire. Crap, maybe I should have gone for a cup of coffee. Ahh...caffeine...] An explosion of leaves burst from the canopy overhead. The hitman paused, Jane assumed he was waiting for things to quiet down or for her to do something foolish, like run. Soon the forest quieted. The only thing that could be heard was the hitman's breathing. A sudden crack shattered the silence, followed by the thud of a body hitting the ground.

I find that when I let my brain float through the air pockets, I'm guided back to the story. Meaningless mental chatter dies down. I find when I fight it, my brain gets stubborn. I let it loose, my brain refocuses.(less)

My First Post

I'm currently writing the second draft of a new piece while plotting out the novel: Half Dead, a follow-up to my novella, A Safe Place. Half-Dead will be my NAMO (National Novel Writing Month) challenge. The novel is ready, my characters are filling me in on their journey, which is being jotted down on sticky notes and transferred to my laptop or iPhone.
