What to do when you're all snowed in?

Bundle up with blankets?  Ohhh yes.  Laundry?  Eh.  I guess I kind of have to.  Cook? Mmmhmm! Drink hot tea and tasty coffee? You know it!!  Grab the laptop and begin plotting out future story concepts?  YES.  Because I have no where else to be!  And because I'll be outside shoveling tomorrow!  Ugh...

But in between plotting out stories and weeding through the piles and piles of plotbunnies, I'm catching up with The Secret Circle, critting, cleaning, and spending some much needed time with my boyfriend. =D  A super productive snow day!

I might even clip some coupons later for shopping this week...but I'll probably put that off until tomorrow.

On another happy note, I finished my cover art for The Mystical Knights: The Sword of Dreams!  It looks great!

Of Soup, Podcasts and Writing!

Book work today. Fanfiction work today too. I have to make my dead line by the end of this month or else my readers will put my head on a spear and dangle it over an open fire. Not sure what they plan on doing with the rest of my body though... Making turkey and dumpling soup from scratch today...my first attempt at making dumplings, so wish me luck!
Also searching for higher paying jobs because in today's world, money is a must. I often believe I was born into the wrong time...I constantly wish for the simpler days I have only ever read about. :(
As of right now, I'm listening to this super cool podcasts. It gives me hope that my writings are not all slush. And hopefully in the future, I'll see them in print. :D
Keep Writing and Reading!

Look out Blog World...Here I come!

Hi all!

I've been working on something for the past two and a half years that I know you will love.  It's nearly finished; a few more grinds through the Critique Circle and then it's smooth sailing...hopefully.

In the mean time, if you're not too busy, you can take a peek at my original spin off of Stephenie Meyer's New Moon (some of you may be saying, Ugh, not ANOTHER Twi-hard, but I promise, I'm not that crazy.  I think you'll find it to be somewhat inspiring, if not profound.)  It is called Stolen,  and I hope you'll go and take a read.  You might find you'll surprise yourself.  Just go to http://www.fanfiction.net/~skyelarickmanwalters and click on the story link at the bottom of the page.  And as always, don't forget to read and review! ;)

Until next time,
Skye
