Whew! Finally two minutes of peace. Is anyone else ready to send their kids back to school?

I know I promised to blog about my vacation yesterday, but my editor sent my line edits for STOLEN FURY and I spent all day yesterday working through them. I’m happy to say they’re done and gone this morning, which is a nice thing to have off my plate. Either I’ve grown a thick skin, or I’ve learned to step back from my work and look at things objectively. Honestly, even six months ago I used to cringe when I’d open crits from … Read more »

I’m rushing off to a swim meet for Gremlin #1, but I had a couple things I wanted to share:

1. My new website is live!!! Go check it out at https://www.elisabethnaughton.com/

2. I’m posting today at the Rose City Romance Writers blog about my writing space. I’d love it if you stopped by and said “hi”.

I’m pretty happy, my goal was to finish at 2:20 – without knowing about the hills – and I beat that. 🙂 I feel pretty good right now, but I’m sure … Read more »

Because I suddenly realized it’s been nearly a week since I blogged!

Weather Report: It’s 53 degrees and rainy. Where did summer go????? I refuse to give up my flip flops. Jeans, a sweater and flip-flops. Yeah. That’s stylish. Not even three weeks ago it was 102 degrees. That’s right. A fifty degree swing.

The Gremlins have three more days of school. THREE. MORE. DAYS. That’s it. Looooooord help me. I fear a long summer ahead with me on deadline. I may be calling grandma to come and save me. A lot.

My half marathon is just over a week … Read more »
