Busy Times Have Begun!
March 18, 2025 - To everyone who's been waiting to hear from me, my apologies. The good news is, I've been healthy enough to wean off of a medication I disliked. I needed it when I started it, and no longer do, and that's great. The weaning off, however, was horrendous. It's been just over three weeks and I'm only beginning to feel like a human again. But the world is good... Today, I was singing and dancing to music as I made breakfast, and it's warm and DRY enough to hang my historical clothing to dry outside. The calendar has been updated as of: March 19 2025. The Tavern Kickstarter The Turning Leaf Tavern Kickstarter did NOT make it. This does not mean that the anthology is off. The anthology will happen, one way or another. I am investigating new methods of finding funding, and we'll keep moving on. I currently have about 25 submissions for the anthology, and I'd like to have a bit more to make it the best book that I can. For that reason, I'm extending the submission time to the end of April. So if you haven't written that tavern story yet, you still have time! For more details about the anthology, check out The Turning Leaf Tavern page. Lessons in Writing If you're interested in the writing "lessons," I'm continuing them! I was supposed to do them every second week, but it's turning out to be every third or so. I will be posting more this week or next, though! Lesson One: From Head to Paper Lesson Two: Preparing to Write Lesson Three: Start Writing Lesson Four: Creating a World |

There are many programs out there to help with grammar, spelling, and punctuation. While they are not a replacement for a good editor, they are a wonderful place to start!
