About Me

  • I know, the tag line is vague but when you’re complex, sometimes vague and general works best.

    I am currently at work on my first novel. Writing is not new to me. I wrote my first story at the tender age of 8 and it received an Honorable Mention at our local PTA's Creative Arts Contest. It was called "The Elf and the Fruit Bowl" (even then my fascination with fantasy was manifesting itself).

    For the majority of my school years I wrote lots of poetry (150 pages total) and occasional stories when assigned in English classes.

  • NaNoWriMo Week 2

    November 16, 2009

    • Part 1 It's Monday and I'm thinking that my first name needs to be changed to Insanity. Not because of taking on the NaNo challenge but because of all the craziness of my personal life (i.e. KIDS!) that is driving me bonkers. I've managed one paragraph so far today and I'm about to run screaming for the hills because my two kids, both under 10, are bickering, throwing tantrum and otherwise ...
  • NaNoWriMo 2009: Week 1

    November 8, 2009

I've also been tweeting [kishazworld] and updating my status in Facebook [kishazworld]. ...
  • Necronomicon 2009 - Sunday

    October 26, 2009

    • Well my Sunday was better than my Saturday. I had breakfast, checked out and parked in the free parking garage across from the convention. So no worries about towing. (Throws a very pointed glance at the Publix supermarket lot behind the Hilton Hotel.) The voice acting class was awesome. Jeff had us do the old radio show reading/acting of "The Shadow," and I got to play Margo. I made ...
  • Necronomicon 2009 - Saturday

    October 25, 2009

    • I went to bed at 2:15 am and woke back up at 5:11 am. I got my youngest dressed and sent her off with her paternal grandmother. My oldest was with my sister because she was spending Friday and Saturday night with her.At 6:30 am, the friend who was to go with me to Necro, knocked on my door to tell me she couldn't go. Her husband had been sick all night and she didn't want to leave him. After ...
  • Necronomicon 2009: Preparation

    October 23, 2009

    • I'm excited as can be. I am attending my first big writing convention and I can't wait! Necronomicon has been around for 28 years. I first heard of it in 2006 from fellow writer's workshop friend, Elissa Malcohn. I've been trying to get there ever since. Life kept getting in the way but this year I made a determined and aggressive effort to make sure I got all my little ducks in a row so that I ...
