Sometimes this feels like my whole existence. It really does. I get up, I brew the coffee, and then I write the things. Or I do the job. It depends on the day.

But anyway, today is about my works-in-progress. If you've seen "WIPs" and wondered what it meant, it's fairly common shorthand for that phrase.

Moving forward:

Inkling Adventures

A human girl, a singer, an orphan.

Priss Chancing only has her dad, and she loves him more than she even realizes. So when he disappears one night, she'll do whatever it takes to bring him home safely.

Minnew Riversong isn't who the world expects her to be. Her singing is wrong, and she loves the flute instead of the harp. When a chance comes to prove she has value, she takes it despite her fears.

Rihnele Lostseeker doesn't know his past. His mother gave him up at birth, and all talk of his father is forbidden. If there's a chance to learn about either of his parents, he'll go to the world's end if he has to.

Day and Night

A short story, a retelling, a tale of bitterness.

Luna rules the Kingdom of Night through a delicate balance of Rules, and she's done it for years. For the sake of her people and her parents, she will continue to do it for many more years.

But her stepdaughter, Princess Celestia of the Kingdom of Day, may lead to the downfall of all her work. If the two kingdoms cannot maintain their peace, blood will be the result. The Rules are the only chance Luna has

The Dragon's Skin

A sequel, a new quest, a new danger.

Ciara is trapped in Crosia Castle. If she leaves, what she wants is forfeit, but there's danger lurking beyond the castle's walls. Can she battle it without breaking her word?

Aleksander has no to trust. His quest to Caledonia must succeed, or all he wants will be taken from him. But will he be able to reach his goal alone?

"All blood, no tears," Radley joked dryly. Eli smiled wistfully. "Maybe you look good when you cry." Radley laughed and then winced at the pain it must have caused him. He coughed, wiping blood from his mouth with the back of his hand. "No one looks good when they cry." But even as he said it he began to cry -- real tears this time, not just blood smearing his cheeks. Eli started to cry too.

Lady Bloodhawk

A warrior, a revolution, a new world.

Lady Bllodhawk has risen high within Exzirya's army, and now she stands at the right hand of Lord Deathbreath. No one has served better.

From "The Dragon Books" Annnddddd........ We're back for a Teaser Tuesday!!! For anyone who doesn't already know, The Dragons' Stones  is the novel I completed last year. It's synopsis is  "Princess Ciara must retrieve the fabled Dragons' Stones or face life imprisonment. Aleksander hopes that by helping her with this quest, he will make peace with regrets from his past." From "The Dragon Books" No, I'm not going to tell y'all why this prompt fits into The Dragons' Stones . Just know that applies.  Now, it's time for the teaser. Today, it's from Ciara's perspective. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I paused below a window as worry rolled down my shoulders to the ground. I knew. I remembered. I sighed with relief and kept moving until I was out of the village. Beyond it grew a forest. I marched between the trees. The wind hissed among their leaves, and then I...

Building Gratitude

Via Pinterest Anybody else a little tired of their house? On top of everything else, I don't even have access to my books. I have exactly two books to read, and then I go crazy. Via Pinterest But in all seriousness, I'm using this time to develop some good habits in my daily life. (Or I'm trying to anyway.) As some of you know, my word for 2020 is "RENEWAL". I came out of both 2018 and 2019 with a lot of things I didn't like in my life. So for 2020, I really wanted to -  maybe not fix -  but definitely improve. That means better habits, better attitude, and better lifestyle. Part of that is in my writing; part of that is other areas. One of the ways I'm working to reshape is through building gratitude in as many ways as I can. Here's how I work gratitude into my everyday life. 3 Things I'm Grateful for Before I Get out of Bed.  Once I'm good and awake, I list three simple things that I appreciate. It might be a bir...
