If  you've noticed, sadly I haven't really been updating not only this site, but my Twitter and Facebook pages as often as I had been. I have a really good reason though I promise!

     It's not that I haven't wanted to, but it's because it's just been too physically painful to. Back in September of last year (the day after I finished writing and editing 'Under Your Skin' no less!) I had a wrist fusion surgery done on my left wrist. To say that the recovery, which was supposed to be fairly quick, did not happen that way. I had way more swelling than anticipated and it's only been over the last couple days that I've been able to bend ALL my fingers on that hand properly at all! Granted, it still hurts like a bitch, but typing has become quite a bit easier now that I pretty much have most of my range of motion back.

     I could have written in longhand, and I actually did some, but...my handwriting is chickenscratch to put it mildly, ha ha! Part of the problems I have had with 'HBB' is the fact that I'm working out of my journals for that time frame and I'm having to decipher some as I had a tendency to scribble madly. Ever so often I'll look at a word and go 'whuuuuck???' So yeah.

     I'm seeing lots of visitors here, so don't be shy! Come on over to the Facebook page and interact!

     I thought I had already posted the blog on here, but it looks like I didn't. Oops! Let's face it, I'm not exactly as tech savvy as I used to be in my younger years. Why, I remember in the late 90s to early 00s creating and maintaining websites for others with no issues. As a matter of fact, I did it all by what's known as 'hard coding'; none of this 'click and drag and do a chant and hope it works' stuff. This is why the website is kinda...bare bones. Fear not however, I'll be getting back into the swing of things shortly.

    A couple weeks ago, my computer for the most part bit the dust, necessitating the purchase of a new one. This also means that I had to move everything (and I mean EV-ER-Y-THING) over to the 'cloud' with the exception of all my music. Thankfully, my manuscripts and articles in progress etc, survived the move, which means I can get back to work. Assuming that I quit playing Diablo 2 (and 3!) while theoretically 'thinking'. I haven't been able to play D2 in years on my old computer and D3 never worked at all because the computer was so outdated. The new machine has all sorts of nifty bells and whistles on it and playing is easy peasy. So yeah, I've been a little distracted. We'll overlook that I've already beaten the game twice...besting my old record of 4 days by beating it 2 and 3 (with two different characters respectively) days.

     So 'oops' for not keeping the blog up to date.

    What can you expect to read in the blog you ask? Well...writing related stuff, ideas I have swirling around-  ie: in addition to working on 'Elegies for the Years of the Insane' , 'Heartless Bipolar Bitch--A Tale of Misdiagnosis' and 'Elemental', I'm also helping my husband on a book of his own, without giving away major plot points, I'll say that it's in the Fantasy and Supernatural realm. I'm supposed to be doing research, but I've been slacking as he hasn't given me a clue as to what exactly I'm supposed to be researching! And yes, there will probably also be random, boring day-to-day stuff posted in here as well.

    So stick around, it's sure to be an interesting ride!
