Work Wednesday: The Movies In My Mind

For this latest Duxbridge novel, I’m working in an entirely different way. Usually, after I know where a book is headed, meaning I have the first and last chapters either written or outlined, I write a chapter at a time.

Feathery Friday: Spooked

Crazy busy here and running to keep up. Something spooked Nora outside and I didn’t have time to problem solve it, so she’s inside until I have to leave late afternoon.

Hopefully, by that time, whatever was out there will be gone.

Jasper is happy to babysit until then.

Work Wednesday: The Writing Continues

Small tuxedo cat sitting on the bed with no concerns. (He sits like that because he has manx syndrome and his back legs are wonky)

I went on a cleaning binge this weekend. Which included cleaning the blinds. A job that requires zero cats of course meant that Reggie had to help. Thought is was fun to chase the blind cleaner across the blinds. No regrets!

Furry Friday: Kinda Weirdos

We’ve been super busy here. Lots of comings and goings. Walks and barking at neighbors who dare walk down any sidewalk within sight. So many naps are needed.
