Writing Life

The life most real to me. As evidenced by the preponderance of posts.

My Muses Are A-Bubblin’

My Muses Are A-Bubblin'

I used to complain about ADD muses. I still do, when I’m neck deep in edits and my guys want to go work on something(s) , anything(s) else. They used to be a lot worse, though. When I started writing way back when, one reason I never finished anything was the way new ideas came […]

And I Think to Myself…

Today I’m pondering a site redesign. Not of the blog (probably) because I like it lots, but kdsarge.com could use a makeover. And since it’s time for a major CMS upgrade anyway, it’s gonna get it. This also means a new template, so my lovely parchment will be going away, sigh. Last night I drew

Homesick for the Inside of My Head

OMG no matter how much I need it, I hate being between projects! I have a lot to do, though. I’m not so good at writing boundaries–when I’m deep in a project (especially one fast approaching a deadline, cough) I don’t do other things.โ€  Website maintenance. Home maintenance. Relationships. *shifty eyes* All fall by the

Queen’s Man #TeaserTuesday

Queen's Man #TeaserTuesday

So since I dropped out of NaNo to edit, I figured I’d just get on back to editing. I really don’t hate it–I love how it improves an already-great story. Anyway. Thought I’d share a bit. My main character, Joss Ravid, just did something pretty dumb and is now dealing with the consequences in his

Instead of a #5kday, I’m Calling it a Day

Instead of a #5kday, I'm Calling it a Day

I’m dropping out of NaNo. I’ve thought about it long and hard (about half an hour!) and I need to do this. NaNo, as I’ve stated more than once, should be fun. Yes, it’s a challenge, but if you’re not having fun, something needs to be re-evaluated. I’m not having fun. I don’t know why–I
