One- What I’m Writing
I’m still working on my YA horror novel, but I recently finished a few short stories and submitted them for anthologies. I also recently had a short story accepted into an anthology, so hopefully the publication date on that will be announced soon.
Two- Random Fact About Me
I talk to myself. Out loud sometimes. My dogs are fine with it.
Three- What I’m Grateful For This Month
I’m grateful that I’ve been able to settle back into routine. I love the holidays and all, but at the end of the day, I like it when my days are all pretty much the same. I’m grateful for my writing groups and their amazing feedback.
Four- When I Wasn’t Reading
I started skating again, which is wonderful! I’ve done a lot of work on my novel and editing short stories. I’ve been querying agents. And of course, I’ve been walking my crazy dog.
Five- Favorite Picture This Month

The Forces of Darkness really think the computer is for their benefit.
I talk to myself sometimes when I’m composing dialog for story characters in my head. And since dialog usually occurs between two or more people, that means that sometimes I argue out loud, too.
I’m glad I’m not the only one.
