“Orchard”
Would orchard branches
tangle if not groomed, in rows?
Somehow, I think not.

How to Focus When You’re Scatter-Brained
As you’ve probably read at some point on this space, the last two-plus months have been pretty hectic for me. All of my spare time has been consumed by buying and moving into a new house while also trying to finish the second draft of my novel.

However, with the second draft complete and waiting to be edited by someone far more objective than me, I now have time to focus on all of the other aspects of publication. Continue reading “So, I’ve Written A Book… Now What?”
Haiku Sunday – Uncertain
“Uncertain”
Hesitant footfalls.
Fog descends to veil the way.
Will you continue?
