Little Pieces of Krumms

This is consisted of lots of plotting and daredevils. Good reads and good food. Hair cuts (6-8 inches taken off — my “biggest” hair cut in 3 years!) Writing and deciphering and writing Skype dates.

Getting Pumped

Getting Pumped

I love writing. I especially love when I’m over-the-moon-excited about writing whatever WIP I’m working on. I know that during the writing process you can’t always stay excited (I’m not that naive — just this week I was so tired I looked at my computer screen and said “Psh, it’ll be there tomorrow” and went to bed) I also have… Read More

Little Bits of Krumms

I’ve never been good with potato peeling. A new gardening book I’m excited to dive into (don’t worry I’ll share on the blog). Playing with Project Life waiting for my kit to get here. Uncle Brandon’s been here twice this week! We are some lucky people! Putting the finishing touches on mailings for a client. We’ve been working on E… Read More

One fabulously rainy day, in the middle of writing all my letters,… Read More

Want to read Project Grinch first? 

While I don’t have a lot to tell you about the storyline, the general idea is if the Grinch and Buddy the Elf were stuck on a roadtrip together at Christmas time (the Grinch is female in this story!) 

If you like YA fiction, rom-coms, and Christmas stories, you hopefully will enjoy Project Grinch.

That was twelve years ago... and I almost listened That was twelve years ago... and I almost listened. 

I’m really glad I didn’t. To be honest, this person wasn’t wrong. At the time I wasn’t very good at writing. It was early on in my career. Hearing that I should give up was a punch to my gut and I had two choices. 

I could listen, and not write ever again.

OR

I could buckle down and get better. 

I chose to get better. I still don’t think I’ve “arrived” but I am a lot better than I was then. 

So this is me telling you — don’t ever stop dreaming, don’t ever stop learning, and don’t take bad advice. 

You got this. I’m cheering for you.
