Lucky You–Happy St. Patrick’s Day

Mar17

I’m off to work on Wolf Pack and start proofing Wolf on the Wild Side.

We’re having corned beef, cabbage, carrots, and potatoes tonight. We went too late to the museum in Houston. It’s right next to the zoo and just not enough parking. With Spring Break, you either had to go early, which we had planned but didn’t make it, or forget it. Hundreds of cars were looking for parking spaces and since we were there an hour and a half after opening instead of arriving a little earlier before opening, no one was leaving and everything was packed. We took my granddaughter to the much smaller children’s museum nearer us and thankfully it was fairly empty. She had a ball and the day was saved. lol But she was really good-natured about it anyway, so if that had been a wash, we would have just done what we had planned later–pizza, cupcakes, opening presents, and playing with giant bubbles in the backyard!

And somehow after all that I managed to catch up on my word count for the day before and yesterday’s. I’m shooting for 5,000 more words on the book and I should have that by this weekend. My granddaughter is staying with me Friday afternoon through Saturday, our monthly fun weekend and so I won’t get much writing done.

Have a super lucky day and if that means you got out on the right side of the bed this morning, you’ve got the day made.

We Have to Make Our Own Luck–St. Patrick’s Day Art

Mar5

Finally up to 79K on Wolf on the Wild Side, which has nothing to do with luck but a lot of work! lol

Finished the print cover for Vexing the Highlander and uploaded it. Sometimes I wonder what I’m doing that all my time is gone and I feel I haven’t accomplished much of anything, but I really have! I keep thinking of next books…the sequel to the Wolf Wore Plaid, the sequel to Vexing the Highlander, finishing Bear in Mind…so many stories, so little time.

I’m off to work on Wolf. Then babysitting duty so the kids can garden, but then we’ll also have lunch.

Hope your day is super great!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Mar17

I’m fixing corned beef, cabbage, Hawaiian rolls, and chocolate mint chip ice cream for a St. Patrick’s Day dinner. We haven’t done it in a long time so I thought it would be fun.

Is anyone else having a St. Patrick’s Day dinner? We have the Welsh family who were Irish, though they were probably Welsh and married into an Irish family named Kelly. My Hawthornes also were born and raised in Ireland until they ended up in Scotland, one born on the Irish Sea. They all ended up in Canada.

I managed to finish up another 2700 words on Billionaire. I had hoped to reach 3K, but just couldn’t think of anything.

I’m off to the grocery store bright and early this morning before the thunderstorms hit to grab the rest of our St. Patrick’s day meal. And then I’m off to write and wearing something green!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! May you find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Mar17

Amid the growing crisis ongoing, I wish everyone luck, good health, and a means to survive financially. I’m glad to see some helping others out in this crisis.

In the meantime, I’m TRYING to stay focused on my writing. Still can’t come up with the opening or the plot for the new book. Still working on Seducing the Vampire–up to 28,000 words on it.

Try to have a sense of humor to help you get through the crisis.

An alternative to Kleenix–washable hankies. I ordered them from Amazon and they got here in a couple of days.

No photo description available.
Image may contain: indoor

An alternative to paper napkins–washable cloth napkins. I’ve had those forever, and they last forever.

I’m still weeding and planting plants that I bought a few days ago and trimming back crape myrtles to train them into trees. I’m trying to stay home as much as possible until I run out of food.

Have a great day and may the luck of the Irish be with you!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day & Say Cheese!

Mar17

Or not! In Click Love Grow, the photographer talked about natural expressions. Here, baby looked up and saw me smiling at her and I was talking to her. She was so focused on trying to crawl up on the slide, or back down it, that when she looked over, she was tickled to see me there. But these are the kind of expressions that are great. Nice and natural. In the other, she was smiling at her momma. She was having a ball. Talking to us, laughing, smiling.

The photographer recommended having the kids hold something, getting them involved in the photo set up, catching them when they’re playing or doing some other activity, rather than have the standard mug shot. Playing word games, mixing up stories, so that  they don’t make sense, bribing, are some of the ways that photographers get the kids to smile genuinely. Even with Keira as young as she is, if I say, “What does the cow say? Mooooo,” she smiles. Or if I sing her one of the songs like “Baa Baa Black Sheep,” or “Row Row Row Your Boat,” she’ll also smile.

I love to sit with her on the floor and while she’s playing and talking away, I take pictures. Hopefully with using better settings for a moving baby, they’ll turn out better.

Tomorrow’s prompt was nice background blur so that the child stands out against the background.

Off to work on the story! I got word count!!! And now just continuing to edit and write. It’s amazing as I’m going along, how I’ve changed the story as I write, and have to return to the beginning to reflect those changes! The butterfly effect…

Have a lovely St. Patrick’s Day! Potatoes, corned beef, cabbage, and carrots on the menu!

Wearing Green!

Mar17

Happy St. Patrick’s Day

Yes, I have several Irish ancestors, Scottish, Viking, English, German, Welsh, French, Canadian–so just a melting pot of all good.

When I was in school, I was proud to wear the green, but it was a necessity also, if you didn’t want to get pinched!

So here’s to loving green. I love green in the landscape, makes me feel connected, dreamy, at peace.

Wearing the green–for protection.

Wearing the green is part of who they are.

Silence of the Wolf by Terry Spear-Review, Guest Post and Giveaway

Silence of the Wolf Banner

 

“Terry Spear pulls the reader into a Rocky Mountain adventure through the snow covered forests and the backwoods of Silver Town, USA. There is action and suspense; hatred and love; betrayal and forgiveness. If you like a storyline with a little romance, a little sex, a little suspense and a whole lotta shifters, SILENCE OF THE WOLF and the Heart of the Wolf series by Terry Spear is a welcome addition to any personal library.” Reviewed by Sandy
