Disciplining My Imagination As It Run Wild

It's been a busy week. I finished editing Breakout Heat and it's now in the hands of my mentor.

I started my next book for the Billionaire's Club and it's so exciting to be writing! The most frustrating part is when your characters stop talking to you. I had all afternoon free to write and Alex would not speak to me, so I turned it over to Valeria who does have a lot to say!

The weather here has been warmer than usual but I don't mind. I get to swim in my pool longer than I've ever had in the eight years I've lived here.

But good things come to an end, as they say. Cool/normal weather will return by the end of the week.  That will give me more time to stay indoors and write. And edit.

I had another person approach me to ask why I don't write stories about the Bible. I don't think I'm qualified. I venture into many areas but that's not one of them. Sorry!

Challenges!

There is nothing better than starting a new story. Last week, I had a vivid dream about a character who haunted me. I knew I could cast him into one of my stories in my head, but which one? I have started several stories but he wouldn't fit into any of them. He's a strong alpha male, yes, but not right for what I have.

Thanks to the suggestion of my editor, I now have a story for him. I've done the research and he's ready to talk. We agreed to take today off while I indulge in the NFL games but first thing Monday, he wants to get down to business and I'm ready!

Also, I'm should be receiving the Cover Art for Cruise Into My Heart in addition to the edits. I'm also working on Breakout Heat to hand over to my mentor by the end of the week.

And don't forget editing When the Runway Went South so I can work in the sequel.  No wonder I can'at sleep at night!

Harvey and Irma

I am still making progress on my books. Awaiting the Cover Art and the first round of edits on Cruise Into My Heart.

I'm still praying for the victims of  both hurricanes. I can't believe how nature changes our lives. I praise the people of the Houston area where there could've been more deaths. Those poor people on the small islands who have nothing because of Irma.

I can't help but watch the news constantly.

But the one bright spot is Football! Yes! It begins and then Hockey and I'm in my world. Love this time of year!

Busy, busy!

It's amazing what I can accomplish when I have uninterupted time to myself! What am I working on, yous ask?

1) Breakout Heat - I'm done with my edits and am going through it one more time until I turn it over to my mentor who is anxiously waiting for it.

2) When the Runway Went South - I am so sorry for all the mistakes it had in it's published version. I am correcting them all and tweaking it so I can add the sequel. I've got the cast of characters who are inpatient to tell their stories.

3) Also, with the upcoming NHL season, there are more characters asking to be heard.

However, I am enjoying the last days of summer while I wait for the Cover Art and edits for Cruise into My Heart!

I am helping with donations for the victims of Harvey. My heart goes out to those poor people.

No more storms!
