Where I’ve Been

1. Doing a solid for a friend… for which I’m being paid.
2. Entering flash fiction contests. My story, “At Last,” is on page 2. Join the forum and rank the stories you like. There’s some good stuff like….
“The Vigil of Clouds” on page 8.
“Frangible Choices” on page 7.
“Have Your Cake” on page 1.
You have to register before you can rank the stories, but it’s fast and easy. The forum is Flash Fiction 40 Contest.
3. Working on two other short stories. They’re creepy and twisted. I’ve discovered that I like writing about the creepy and twisted. What does that make me?
4. Getting caught up on Southland, Supernatural, Weeds, and Criminal Minds.
Blogging will commence tomorrow with a Top Ten. My Top Ten Memorable Encounters.
What about you? What have you been up to?


Nina is a 34-year-old mother, wife and writer who spends her days blogging, studying, changing diapers and watching ridiculous amounts of TV. She currently resides in Atlanta, Georgia, with her husband, two children and three TiVos.




Did you post At Last on MS at some point? It feels familiar - or I'm having an episode.
Up to? Realizing that this pregnancy is going to be very different from the last. I'm getting migraines almost daily (three in a row yesterday) and can't keep my eyes open past 9:00 PM ... sigh. I really did get spoiled.

Likeafter my 14 hours AC investment a friend hooked me up with a lovely lil toolkit that has made me happy and also allowed me to get back to real life :)
Yesterday I ran errands all day, the net result, getting a new phone in the mail, getting a check in the mail, getting some refunds on things I mailed back, learned I can turn my phone into a hotspot (handy for Dei's ipod touch apps)
Today I have a conference call and a business lunch...Dei is going with Cheri and her family to the beach this weekend so Im home alone with Mom...I need a date, ask Donnie if he has any friends in Charlotte that are single and willing to go a movie :) ahahahahah

LikeSounds like you've been very busy, but then again when is a mom not.
As for me I've been running kids to swim practice, summer camp, dance lessons, doing homework and somehow I manage to schedule time to meet with my clients and write or deliver insurance policies.
And from time to time I even squeeze in cuddle time with the husband.
I cant wait until August to get a break (that's when the new baby comes).

Like1. Doing a solid? What are you, stuck in the 70s?
2. I really liked At Last and Frangible Choices. And yes, I had to google "frangible," before I read it.
3. Extremely creepy and twisted.
4. Don't forget to add One Tree Hill and Felicity to that list.
Trying to win a free iPhone... That's what I've been up to!
