Midnight Tomorrow Books
"Midnight is that moment between two days,
between possibilities,
between not knowing and knowing.
It's the moment you first sit down with a new book.
Open the cover.
And, like catching the first spark of a new day,
feel your world change and expand."
-MTB

Over the last week, I started making cloth face masks to donate to my local hospital. Please read my How-To and donate some out of your scrap cotton fabrics, if you can. Or share with someone you know who sews. Then, make some for yourself. Stay well.

Damn. But we're doing our best as a nation, as a world. I think my child no longer thinks dystopia and apocalypses would be a wonderful thing. Stay safe and healthy, and look out for everyone, everyone. This was not how I saw this year going, either.

Days are zipping by like hours. Just a quick note to say that I am still here, still writing book two. I've begun to read the middle to my writing group and am getting much needed encouragement and feedback. It's helping push me forward and I'm really pleased with how everything is unraveling and being woven back together. Enjoy the upcoming holidays!

Happy Year of the Pig!
I made a big change last December: I decided to remove Red from everything other than Amazon. The incentive to stay on iBooks and Kobo and Google and Smashwords fizzled out. I'm hoping to take advantage- soon- of Amazon's Unlimited program, also, and to do that a book cannot be available elsewhere.
Be sure to read my latest blog post here, where I get pretty personal about what I have and haven't been doing this last year.

Well, it seems I have an annual promise to continually break. I keep saying I'm not going to do another author event until Book Two is complete, but I couldn't refuse this one either. So much more than just writing- science, art, and music too! The building itself sounds spectacular. I'm really excited!
To that end, the last five years since publishing Red have gone by in a whirlwind. So much has happened to pull me from writing- some good, others not. In that span of time, Book Two, while not always actively getting written, has been actively evolving and changing. They all went and did things I didn't see coming, which calls for a lot more rewriting than I'd anticipated. Honestly, though, I've learned to just follow along and not complain. They know their story better than I. However, great news- I've been actively writing since I finally, finally, have an awesome, designated space in which to do so. Little things do actually make a big difference. Pockmarked walls and piles of stuff with nowhere to go don't lend well to creative ingenuity.
It's been a year since updating this. I'm going to tidy up a little- while listening to Mr. Him's spectacular playlist- and get back to writing.
Enjoy your Sunday!

It's been a long time since I've done an author fair. But I'm happy to announce that I'll be back where I began on Sunday, November 8th 2017, with The Oak Lawn (Illinois) Public Library Author Fair.
6/16/17
The death of a computer for a writer is a very traumatic event. But after a super long hiatus due to my Dell dying, I am back via a new Lenovo. There's a lot of catching up to do! And I can, as I was able to salvage all my files and photos and stuff from my beloved Dell. Woohoo! Crisis averted. He lasted a good long time (12 years). It was a good death, I hope. Just so you know, a lot has changed in the world of computers and software in 12 years. I am loving all that my new Lenovo is bringing :-) But it's going to be a slight learning curve. Bear with me.

Phew. I had a scary week! I tried to turn my computer on last Saturday and got a terryfing blue screen that said 'hardware malfunction'. I went into complete denial and decided not to think about it. It took the rest of the week to sum up the courage to try again.
My computer is still alive!
Today.
I was at the Indiana Writers' Consortium yesterday as a vendor, and it was a great day. Met a lot of budding and seasoned writers, found some funny 5 degrees of seperation linkages, caught up with authors I've met at other venues, and was even able to sell some books amidst all that! And, they gave us canolli in a cup. IN A CUP! Whose brilliance did that spew from? I'll post pictures another day.
10/14/2016
Woohoo! I'm back online! Won the battle with my rotten ISP, which meant I no longer have service with them. Finally relented and reluctantly returned to the other rotten ISP. We'll see how it goes this time. I am not very hopeful.
I was in Morris Illinois on Oct 1st for their 2nd annual Author Fair! Had fun, some great chats, and networked with some great new authors. For everyone visiting from the event, thank you! Thank you Lorene for offering it. I'll post some pictures soon......now that my computer can converse with the world once again.
November 12th I'll be at the Indiana Writers' Consotiums' Steel Pen Conference. I just joined the Consortium and am eager to get involved!

How did July happen? Wow.
Happy Independence Day, fellow Americans! As my dog cowers under my desk, please be mindful of your pets. I tried to explain to the Boogers a dogs' point of view: all evidence points to the apocalypse, yet the creatures overlording you have never learned your language so there's no way for you to communicate. But bad things are happening and they're so oblivious, they just go out and sit around a bonfire like it's some sort of celebration rather than take defensive measures. WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE.
We're still- 8 months later- moving into the new house, so I have no idea where her Thunder Shirt is. That thing works. When it's on her.
It's July, half the year is already gone. I'm loving the new house, am working on Book Two, getting slightly derailed every now and then by the twists they have been throwing at me. They're really good twists, but they're slowing the process down as they weren't in the original scheme. Lira and her males ALWAYS know best, so I'm writing as quickly as I can, all things considered.
I am also working on a new avenue for MTB. I am super excited, and may give more details once it stabilizes more.

Happy (belated) New Year!
Want to know where I've been all this time? I got personal in my latest blog post, which you can find here.
As this year will be all about writing and catching up, I'll be doing very little author events and signings.

Look at this great review I found on one of my blog posts! Thank you, Gwen! This made the entire last few years worth every moment, and helps direct me through the next few :)
"I didn't think I'd like a fantasy book. I'd never read one before, but I gave it a try, and am I glad I did. This is one of the best books I've ever read! And I've read a lot being 68 years old! I really got into it and it was constantly on my mind when I wasn't reading. A"what could possibly happen next?" kind of thing. I can't wait for the next one!!!"

Making bookmarks! They're looking fantastic. These four sheets have been a week long process (post the failed experimental ones), and will be free for Book Fair book and/or jewelry purchasers! Limited quantities. These aren't your normal bookmarks. See you in Iowa City on October 3rd, and after that at the Princeton Public Library (Princeton, Il.) on October 24th! :)

Some formatting errors have come to my attention in both the eBook and print. I'm fixing them now. Amazon typically updates within a few days, but the other outlets can take several weeks. I'm really sorry, but it's been found and fixed!
