Cupid was slowing down on me and then I completely lost it. So, I decided to come back to it after I get two other stories done that are eager to get out of my head.  Hopefully, I'm not just in a slump. I'm already well into the outline (loose guideline more like it) for Right in Front of You Vol. 4 so here's hoping.
My husband and oldest both were successful with their hunts this year over the weekend and now we'll have plenty of meat in the freezer to feed the family for the next year.
I don't have much else to share.
Have a great one!

I started my rough drafts for this season of writing and it's slow going. I don't know if it has something to do with the fact I'm working on the final Heartstrings book or that my new camera is distracting me, either way, I'm doing my best to get my head in the game. 
I'm going to do my best to get to it today while also balancing kiddos.
I don't really have anything else to share this week, so have a great one!

Welp, summer has come to an end and just like every year since becoming a mom, I feel like we didn't do enough to have fun. But we still have our weekends to adventure.
While this week marks kiddos going back to school all over the place, I'm wrapping up my second drafts for the year that took a lot longer than usual. Normally, I'm done by mid-August, I won't be done until Wednesday with this final book for 2024. I have five coming next year! Then I'm diving into rough drafts starting with the final book of 2026.
Yeah, I'm that far ahead.
I hope you have a great week!

Hello Lovelies! Where has the summer gone? Seriously? I don't get where the time went. As always, I feel like I didn't get enough time with my kiddos and now school is right around the corner. 
But I can keep track of time through the books I've read. I'm only showing the first book since most of what I read this month were part of a series.
Now, let's get started!

Cody was great! I met some new authors, so some old friends, and met lots of new readers! It was a long day that ended with my husband and I spending more time on the side of the road calling elk and watching moose on our way back to the rest of the family.
As much as I wanted to go fishing, my oldest decided to have an upset stomach that brough us home early. That's okay, I plan on fishing this coming weekend.
This week, has me wrapping up my final book for 2024 and then diving into outlines for the books I plan on writing this coming fall when school starts up once more.
I hope you have a great week!

We're on the final countdown to Cody signing this coming Saturday! I'm so excited to be attending a signing in my home state! This will be my third different signing since I'm still limited to where I can go, but I do attend craft shows as well.
I'm entering the homestretch with my second drafts for 2024 releases. I'm working on the last book of next year starting today!
I don't have much else to share with you. I hope you have a great one!

One minute it's Fourth of July then Rodeo here and now we're gearing up for fair that always kicks off August. This year feels like it has gone by at lightspeed and no thanks to all the rain (I am grateful for) in June, some of our summer was stolen right out from under us.
Now the heat is here and I'm praying for more time on the mountain where I can fish and unfortunately be eaten alive by bugs. 
I'm hard at work doing re-writes for my 2024 books with less than two left to get through before I can start plotting out the books I'll write this coming fall, winter, and spring. 
I'm also busy getting ready for a signing in Cody, Wyoming next weekend (August 12th) with a bunch of other romance authors from Montana, Wyoming, and I believe Idaho. If you're around that area please come check it out! I'll add the picture at the bottom of this post.
I don't have much else to share.
As always, have a great one!

You're probably like, yeah? So what?
It's pretty much a holiday week here, one I used to thrive in but now avoid like the plague. The rodeo here inspired my My Cowboy books and I'll always have a love of rodeo but the sports, not just the sense of going like so many do here anymore.
This week, I'm working away on Whiskey Throttle and hopefully getting edits soon to wrap up Regaining Integrity for publishing.
I don't have much else to share this week.
Have a great one!

June was rained out and now it's time to make up for it. I'm hoping to get as much mountain time as I possibly can for the next few months before we are in the grips of winter again.
Between dog sitting this week and getting my kid delivered to his mowing jobs, I'm plenty busy on top of my writing. This week, I'm starting the second draft of Whiskey Throttle which will be the final Moto X book! I felt Parker's story needed to be last. Kind of a way to come full circle with the series. I already have an image selected for his cover too!
I don't have a lot to share for the week.
As always, I hope you have a great one and if you're in the US, have a happy Fourth of July!
