So, it's not really a secret that I'm not the most technically savvy cat on the block. Oh, I've just been going around in circles trying to get back into this site. I keep wanting to post something on my blog and have had the worst time trying to get logged in correctly. But I'm … Continue reading #%?&$ Computers!
My story is published!
Woo hoo! My story "Spelling Tests and Other Life Events" has appeared in the latest edition of Clamor, the lit journal for University of Washington, Bothell. You can read it online here. I'm so happy it's found a home I could purr; it got a couple rejections before getting accepted. I'm rather proud of this … Continue reading My story is published!
Short Story Month
I learned today that May is Short Story Month in the States. This makes me happy, not only because I like short stories so much but also because my own story will come out on the 29th. I find that rather apropos. Although I've written stories for as long as I can remember, it wasn't … Continue reading Short Story Month
Yay for me!
I like happy coincidences. I'm sure I'm not the only one. Facebook reminded me that I had a flash fiction piece published two years ago today. And I've received word that one of my short stories will appear in the 2018 issue of Clamor, the University of Washington-Bothell's literary journal. It will come out on 29th May. … Continue reading Yay for me!
Superstitious?
I hope everyone has a happy day today. I've always thought the best way to stay out of trouble, whether or not you're superstitious, is to curl up somewhere comfy with a good book and just get lost in the pages.
World Book Day!
Today is World Book Day. How cool is that? As someone who has loved books and reading since I was little, it makes me happy that books have their own special day of recognition. I'm also amused that as I sat down to write this post, my Amazon delivery interrupted the process. I don't mind. … Continue reading World Book Day!
ROW80 Challenge Check-in
I joined this challenge late, and in keeping with that general theme I'm getting off to what can only be described as a slow start. I haven't done any writing of note, but that's not to say I haven't done any writing. Given that even a few weeks ago the amount of my writing was … Continue reading ROW80 Challenge Check-in
My kind of holiday!
I'll admit, it's not quite as good as my birthday. But still tons of fun. And like most other cats, I do try to enjoy myself whenever possible. I will probably curl up with a good book at some point. However you choose to celebrate, I hope you have a wonderful day.
Another writing challenge
Ooo, look! A writing challenge! Can I keep it?! Can I? Can I? Pleeeeeeease?!!! Writing challenges. They're like pretty, shiny objects that I just have to have. Or a furry little kitty cat that I want to curl up with and cuddle. I will hug it and squeeze it and call it George. But it … Continue reading Another writing challenge
