I’m struggling to write this monthly Insecure Writer’s Support Group post as my bed-ridden position is getting beyond a sick joke. Single key tapping is hard amidst intermittent pain… and morphine doesn’t aid concentration. The book still depends on my desktop appearing… and an upturn in my health. I have sketched out my October WEP-IWSG Challenge – … Continue reading
#WEP/IWSG August Challenge – Moonlight Sonata
As the war in Ukraine continues, so will my tale of two Canadian-Ukrainian aviatrix cousins unfold to merge reality and inspiration from the WEP/IWSG bi-monthly challenges.

My desktop is still in … Continue reading

Also, I … Continue reading
#IWSG TOUGH GROOVE
Time for the monthly Insecure Writer’s Support Group post and an update on my situation… although this is written and scheduled a week in advance. My health issues are worse as I’m still struggling to stay comfortable in my powered wheelchair… and I can’t sit at my desk long enough to get much writing done. … Continue reading
