Jeffe’s Earliest Writing (More or Less)
//
Our topic at the SFF Seven this week is a challenge. I’m not sure who proposed this, but it goes: “Share tiny snippet from earliest writing of yours that you can get your hands on. This is kind of a dare, and also I’m nosy.”
It IS quite the dare because it’s kind of scary to show this super old stuff. Come on over to find out more about mine.
Keeping Up with the Virtual Joneses
//
I just returned from a week with my family on Lake Coeur d’Alene. So lovely and relaxing! During some conversation, I mentioned Ed Sheeran, and my aunt – who’d never heard of him – asked me how I kept up on discovering new music.
It was an interesting question, and one I had to think about. Finally I said that I see a lot of recommendations on Twitter. Instagram, too. People share Spotify lists or post YouTube videos. She nodded a little at my answer, clearly a bit daunted at the prospect of emulating me there. So, I sent her two Ed Sheeran albums for her birthday.
Coincidentally enough, our topic at the SFF Seven this week is “Keeping up with trends and changes in social media.” Not an easy thing to do for any of us. Come on over to find out more!
Writing MCs of Various Genders

Our topic at the SFF Seven this week is: “Heroes and heroines – how do you write them differently.” Come on over for my take.
Where Is SFF Headed?
//
This week, the SFF Seven contemplate the SFF genre and where it’s headed.
Coincidentally enough, I just returned from San Diego Comic Con. Come on over to see what I discovered.
Retelling the Fairy Tale
//
Our topic at the SFF Seven this week is which fairy tale would you pick to rewrite and why?
It’s kind of a funny question for me, because it’s starting to be more accurate to ask me which fairy tale I *haven’t* rewritten yet. Come on over for more.
The Island of Lost Book Projects
//
Our topic at the SFF Seven this week is all about the things we want to do. We’re asking everyone to name three projects we’ve been planning to work on for a long while and haven’t yet touched.
It’s kind of like the writer version of the Island of Lost Toys. Come on over to find out mine.
The Isle of Flowers

Our topic at the SFF Seven this week is: What place in your own books do you most want to visit and why? Come on over to find out mine!
Do You Need a Critique Group – Or Something ELSE?
//
Yesterday I cooked brunch for writer friends Jim Sorenson and Sage Walker. (That’s me in my Orchid Throne apron that the amazingly talented Minerva Spencer made for me. Isn’t it awesome??)
We sat in the grape arbor, listened to the bluebirds feed their nestlings, and talked all things writing. It got me thinking about critique and what we need to improve our work that ISN’T critique. Come on over to the SFF Seven for more.
Rules Schmules
//
Our topic at the SFF Seven this week is: That one “rule” that you gloriously, ecstatically love to break. Come on over to find out mine!
