My career in the state of Michigan focused on the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. The warning letters, fines, training manuals, memos, white papers, and suggested legislative changes I wrote were purposefully sterile, devoid of emotion and life, intended to be legal, informational, or instructional in nature. Now, as a creative novelist, I am learning how to lie effectively. I'm finding it's much harder than throwing words together to issue an administrative fine for water in gasoline or to prepare a request for prosecution. However, being a professional liar is a heck of a lot more fun. |
Valentine's Day was a pleasant day spent with my talented daughter-in-law at an art show. (Right next to the candy vendor.) She does these beautiful charcoal drawings of buildings. Her Etsy shop name is Cherished Charcoals.
Taking a break was nice, but now I need to get back to writing because I have two novels to be published this year that won't write themselves. One is the sixth Yarn Genie Mystery, as yet unnamed, and the other is my first romance novel, "Bitter Starts and Burning Hearts," an enemies-to-lovers story. They are already written in my head. Too bad that doesn't equate to two finished novels.

Celeste BennettI'm a struggling author, these days what author isn't? I'm learning that life is better when you do what you love and I love writing, when I'm not crocheting or spending time with family. Archives
