Happy New Year! Remember when we were rolling up on 2000 (Y2K) and we were sure the world was going to end? Or was that just me? There was so much hype about computers not being able to make the changeover and what it would do, that now looking back, it seems so silly. (But… Continue reading Ready or Not, 2025 Is Upon Us!

Resistance, the Antimuse
Resistance can manifest itself in so many ways. Some of the causes are more obvious: Self-doubt; negative self-talk; perfectionism; fear of failure, success--yes, that's a real thing--of risk, of rejection, of criticism, of judgement... Basically, fear of anything that blocks your writing time. The list of why's and causes are endless. But fear is at… Continue reading Resistance, the Antimuse
What If?
There are a few books that I have read/listened to over and over and over. And each time, I pick up something I missed the time before, positive it wasn't there the last time I read it; I was sure the book goblins added it to the page and reshelved it in my bookcase, or… Continue reading What If?
Q4 of 2024 is Knocking at the Door!
Hello, my name is Rhonda and I'm a planaholic. Q4 of 2024 is mere days away, and one of my goals is to read three books per month, one non-fiction and two fiction. It doesn't sound like much compared to a lot of people I know, but when I factor in writing time, grandbaby time,… Continue reading Q4 of 2024 is Knocking at the Door!
Happy Fall!
To say I love autumn is an understatement. A HUGE one! But since fall goes so fast, starting early makes it last longer. 🙂 Pumpkin spice everything; sweaters; hoodies; fingerless writing gloves; the smell of leaves and the sound as they crunch beneath my feet when I walk or run; the changing colors in nature; the… Continue reading Happy Fall!
Back to Routine–Day 4
I'm on day 4 of back to my writing routine after taking most of the summer off. That said, I didn't really take it "off," but deviated from my usual routine... okay, I completely abandoned my routine. There, I said it. Back-to-school season has always given me renewed energy and motivation long after I graduated… Continue reading Back to Routine–Day 4
Summertime…What Does it Mean to You?
What do your summers look like? Structured? Loosey-goosey? In the past, I've allowed myself more downtime during the summer months, yet held a "loose" schedule. But as much as I love summer, I decided to give myself a break this year and fly by the seat of my pants, enjoying each day as each moment unfolds.… Continue reading Summertime…What Does it Mean to You?
Smashwords Annual Summer/Winter Sale!
It's so hard to believe that there are only four days left in June! When I was younger, I poo-pooed the saying "Time goes faster as you get older." In my young brain, time was time, and it was the same for everyone. Not So! The older I get, the faster time slips through my… Continue reading Smashwords Annual Summer/Winter Sale!
Summertime Funtime
What a fun beginning to summer. Okay, so summer hasn't "officially" started yet, but we don't need a calendar to tell us when to begin the season, do we? To be honest, I'm usually enjoying the newness of every season before its "official" start. 🙂 Last Friday I took part in a Literary Circus. Talk… Continue reading Summertime Funtime
