It’s been a while! My last post was from September 2015, so crazy! So, here’s what happened. We built a house, and when I say built, I mean everything. My amazing husband, while working two full-time jobs, managed to build from the hole in the ground to the very last shingle, a 3,700 square foot house. I designed the house, but my role in the building process was more janitorial: cleaning, picking up, handing, finding, and moral support.
It’s been an experience. And not always a good one either. We are about a week, or two from moving in to our dream house, but it has been a bumpy road. I would never, I repeat NEVER, do it again. There was a point half of the way through that I was ready to call it quits, but exhaustion and determination saved us.
I have been writing. There are two book in the final stages, but I haven’t had the time, or energy to finish them. I am also revising Heightened because after a year and a half I hate the way it turned out.
I’ve done a lot of thinking and soul searching about whether, or not to continue my publishing efforts and I’ve come to the conclusion that I have no idea what I want. Not impressive at all, right? But it’s part of my charm, really it is, at least that’s what I tell myself.
What I do know is that I’m tired of being politically correct, of worrying about the what if’s, and the fear in general. So, Whatever does spew out of my mind will be a bit raw, uncensored, and maybe dark at time, or covered in sparkles served on a tray of rose petals all while kittens strum on harps. I’m not sure. But whatever it is, it will be genuine and not bow to any conformity.
