MONDAY MEANDERINGS #8 – 2026
MONDAY MEANDERINGS #4 2026
Happy Monday. The biggest theme of the day (for the past few days) is the weather. I took this photo from my balcony. That's ice, not snow. The entire area is a skating rink! I have a lot to talk about today. It's been a whirlwind of a week! Remember I've been looking at cars? …
Friday Focus #3
We made it to the end of another week and here in Texas, we are expecting some severe winter weather to roll in later today. For all you northerners, this would be nothing, but for us southerners, it's huge. We have no experience driving on snow or ice and people are panicking. The shelves in …
Friday Focus #2
We made it through another week! Happy Friday. Thanks for joining me. On Wednesday, the word we discussed was "waken." In fiction writing, we can often have characters who are unaware of something going on around them because of an "unreliable narrator." At its core, an unreliable narrator is a character whose credibility is compromised. …
Friday Focus #1
Hello, dear readers. Welcome to my first Friday Focus post where I'll dial in some rather vague details, and bring them into focus. On Wednesday, we discussed the word, "waver." So, in thinking about that, I was taken to the first story in The White Rune Series, Ghostly Interference. Jag Peters has the ability to …
MONDAY MEANDERINGS #18
Hello, friends! I'm happy to be back with another catch-up post. Summer is always busy for me as the schedules are all askew. That's a great word, isn't it? Anyway, I'm happy you've joined me! I never know exactly what I'm going to say when I sit down to write these posts. Don't you just …
Throwback Thursday – Brazos Wind
It's time to share another of my older titles and next up is a western, Brazos Wind! As with many of my stories, the inspiration for this one came from a song. Music artist, Phil Hamilton is well known on the Texas music festival circuit and I've always enjoyed his show. During COVID, when musicians …
Monday Meanderings #10
Happy St. Patrick's Day, friends. I don't have a lot to share today, so this post will be short and sweet. It's beginning to look like springtime in Texas! The Bradford Pear Trees and the Dogwoods are blooming. Still, I expect one more cold snap. My mom always used to say there would be an …
Monday Meanderings #8
Goodbye, February, hello, March! For us in Texas, March 2nd is celebrated as Texas Independence Day. It is also my oldest grandson's birthday, and is his first birthday away from home. Created in Canva I awoke very early Saturday morning to find my muse chattering in my ear. Really? It's Saturday. I wanted to sleep. …

Happy First Monday of February! We have had unseasonably warm temperatures here the past few days, even getting into the mid-seventies. I'm sure this is a brief reprieve. Winter isn't over yet by a long shot. I'm combining my regular Monday post with my January Book Reviews. Therefore, this post is a bit longer than …
