Nothing of great importance.
How is life here in California?
Great! We got rain last winter. It is now winter 2018 and we search the skies for clouds.
New year, new me!
mehhh..
Well, we'll work on it.
Since it is 2018, and a new year, I thought I would brush off some of the story ideas and get my butt in gear. Let's see if we can't get something written yeah?
So what to work on? What do I like? What is "talking" to me?
And when I say "talking", I mean what can I pull out of a folder, input into Scrivner, and not just stare at a blank screen for hours?
I am never too sure what to put in these blog posts. *scowls*
How familiar should I get?
Want a picture of my dog?
Surprise! I don't have a dog.
Wanna hear about my newest story idea?!
No! You'll steal it! *looks around clutching idea to her chest*
It be January, and I missed the Steinbeck Center's open house.
They had a whole week of free admission! I went last year; it was great! Oh...I've told you that right? I live in John Steinbeck's hometown.
It's MY Hometown now, however. He's dead, and a Noble prize winner, and internationally famous, but Goals..am I right?
I will once again, attempt to post something every week. Maybe I'll write about the valley and the area that inspires me to write. Maybe I should go for a drive and get those old juices flowing. I used to love driving down River Road; look out over all farmland. The mountains, the Valley, the arroyos, the canyons, the weird upside-down river, the ocean just 30 miles to the east, all of it has featured in some manner in many of my stories. Even if it is as set dressing for a fantasy world, or a sci-fi piece, or a paranormal fiction piece.
So, let's get back into the swing of things.
Welcome, 2018! Let's do something outrageous!
