And All Because of Toilet Paper

And All Because of Toilet Paper

By LK Gardner-Griffie on January 14, 2011

I’ve been having a bit of an off week… you know the kind. Nothing really wrong, but not feeling quite 100%, the day job a little tough to take. Yet there were bright spots to the week, like getting a text message from my friends Drew and Branli about getting together for coffee as they passed by my workplace. So not all bad, not all good, just not feeling quite myself.

Don’t Buy My Books

Don’t Buy My Books

By LK Gardner-Griffie on November 10, 2010

This is how I felt when I heard this morning that Amazon.com had a book available for sale on Kindle that goes against the grain of moral and ethical decency.

The Downhill Slide

The Downhill Slide

By LK Gardner-Griffie on November 7, 2010

There comes a point in during the creation phase of a book when you hit the downhill slide. The point where you are getting close to your ideal word count goal… when you know where the book is headed and all you have to do is reach the finish line.

Revisions and Edits Bear Gems

By LK Gardner-Griffie on September 25, 2010

Today I happened to be over at my TwitterSister Eisley Jacob’s blog checking our her post on editing and revising. This is a topic which is always dear to my heart, since I spend so much of my time on a book in this phase.
