Legends, Lore, and More
Happy Friday, everyone! We're already halfway through December, and soon a new year will be upon us. Not a lot happening at the Hall household this week. I've been knee-deep in the final edits of Menagerie. If I haven't mentioned it before, I'm a bit of an introvert. Yesterday, I realized I hadn't been anywhere... Continue Reading →
What a difference a week makes! Only a few days ago we were enjoying the beautiful fall foliage. We live in the country, and across the road behind our neighbor's house, the trees were brilliant reds and golds. I had an excellent view from my writing desk. Twilight had fallen one evening, and I hadn't... Continue Reading →
Happy Friday, everyone. One four more left this year. Can you believe it? After taking a break for the Thanksgiving holiday, it's been a busy week as I'm wrapping up the edits of my short story collection, scheduled for release in January. Story Empire had another full week. Harmony Kent began the week with a... Continue Reading →
It's been a busy week at the Hall household. I've decided all of them are busy, just in different ways. Monday, we had three windows replaced. We ran errands on Tuesday and went out for Mexican food. (I have to get my Tex-Mex fix.) And, I'm plugging away at the short story edits. Look for... Continue Reading →
Hey, everyone. I planned to write a post this week and show some of the photos I took in Oklahoma last week. However, two days after our trip, tornadoes ripped through several towns in northeast Texas and southeastern Oklahoma. Some of those towns, including Idabel, Oklahoma, and Powderly, Texas, suffered major damage. Hard to believe... Continue Reading →
Happy first Friday of November! Halloween is over and here in the states, our thoughts turn to the Thanksgiving holidays. I mentioned last week that my husband and I planned a day trip to Oklahoma. We went on Wednesday, and although it was fun, I'm wiped out. I'll try to do a post about it... Continue Reading →
Hey, everyone! Are you ready for ghosts and goblins? Halloween is just around the corner. Time for me to watch the all-time classic, It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown. Yes, there are still some things from my childhood that I enjoy. I even reread The Incredible Journey this month, one of my favorite childhood books.... Continue Reading →
Another week is in the books and it's been a great one. Last Saturday, I traveled to Dallas to attend an author meet and greet hosted by Rox Burkey. I was so excited to meet friend and fellow Story Empire contributor Jan Sikes. Although it was the first time we met in person, I felt... Continue Reading →
October is marching on and I'm knee-deep in edits for my short story collection. I hadn't looked at some of the stories in almost a year, so I got a few surprises. One that I thought would need a lot of edits turned out to be easily done. Of course, I can't write short in... Continue Reading →
It was another busy week around the Hall household. I'll not bore you with the details of needing a new car battery or the parts place first telling us the battery was good, but the alternator was bad. Suffice to say we had a busy and "interesting" day Tuesday. But all is now well, the... Continue Reading →
Is it already Friday? What happened to the week? I'm not exactly sure, but it went by as fast as if I'd been on vacation. Yes, I was told I wouldn't have as much time as I thought I would. It's true. More things going on at the Hall household this week. Errands to run,... Continue Reading →
Hey everyone! Happy Friday, the first one of fall. Our temperatures soared this week, making the autumn equinox feel more like the summer solstice. But signs of fall are everywhere. My spider lilies began blooming this week and a cool front is supposed to bring our temps back down to more seasonal norms next Monday.... Continue Reading →
Hey, everyone. It's the last Friday of the summer. Here in Texas, we're moving into more autumn-like weather. One morning the low was in the upper fifties. Quite a contrast from our triple-digit summer temps. Our recent rain helped the grass to grow, and everything is a lot greener than it was a month ago.... Continue Reading →
Happy Friday, everyone! I hope everyone has enjoyed their week. I'm getting used to not having to drive to work every day. Let's just say it didn't take much of an adjustment. I'm loving this new life. Pete Springer said he's ready for an "I'm retired" post from me, and I promise it's coming. This... Continue Reading →
Hey, Readers. Happy September. I'm back from my blogging break and already into the second day of retirement. More about that next week, but today is the first of something new. Most of you know I'm a contributor at Story Empire. Along with fellow authors, Mae Clair, Staci Troilo, C. S. Boyack, Harmony Kent, Gwen... Continue Reading →
