Just a quick note: Moving day is within days, my new life and new residence are in view. My house is being over run by boxes. Everyday I have access to less and less of my stuff. I’m living in a suitcase as of now. Tonight and tomorrow is the last of the packing and cleaning. Then the dreaded move on Saturday. (Raspberry sound with my lips)
“Why do I have so much stuff?” I hear it over and over from tenant who move in or out of our properties. And here "I" am saying it.
Why do I feel I need all this? Organizing and throwing away is going to be the priority once the moving is done.
The only regret is that it might take time away from my reading or writing. That I cannot allow. Slowly, I will toss and pitch unsavory items that have no use as I begin to pull together my new residence.
Notice:
Due to my move and being the first of the month, since I work in property management, my blog postings and storyline "Three Ordinary Lives" will have to take a back seat for a few days. Back on track after that, I can’t wait.
Update on Writing:
Or reading I should say. I was able to purchase a few books. I am so excited!!! Writer’s Digest has books out designed to help the writer. I read about them when I get my email newsletter. Well guess what! I found a few of them at the book store. I was able to buy two books.
1. Characters and Viewpoint by Orson Scott Card.
2. Conflict, Action and Suspense by William Noble.
Book 1: Characters, what I learned about how to find characters is to look around you, be aware of the characters around you. Take from them but do not use them. The book will explain more on this.
When developing a story, the writer needs to dig deeper than just the clichés of life. Really take time to think about what could possibly happen, but then dig deeper, then dig more, and more. The characters and the story have to be original. The reason why they do something has to be original and what they do about it also has to be original. This book explains it easily and how each point can make the best character, story, and how to write it.
Viewpoint is something that I am in desperate need to understand, and that will come later in the book. Right now I’m only at part 1. Next part is Constructing Characters. That should be interesting.
I love learning. This is better than an 8 Week Creative Writing Class! Ha Ha. For those of you who are new. I had taken a 8 week creative writing course and was accused of using the class as a therapy session. Which is untrue and ridiculous.
Back to the books:
Conflict, Action and Suspense. I have learned some great techniques to creating conflict and the difference between passive and active voice. This is great!
I’m moving into chapter 3: Openings right now. This explains the correct way to hook the reader within the first few pages. It is really fascinating. There are a lot of way to hook the reader and what the reader expects from the writer and the story.
I’m thrilled about these books and grateful I found them. I am learning so much, and plan on working hard to put my new found techniques into my writing. Let me know if you like the improvements.
Update on Braveheart:
Braveheart moves too quickly for me to get a picture of him lately. He is fast, running, jumping, attacking and then hiding from everyone in the house. His attention span is small compared to the others but he is loved an accepted by all. I love to torture him with kisses.
Oh forgot to tell you. Since I’m moving into a cheaper place I can afford to keep him. He is mine.
(Mine! Mine! Mine!) No other capable arms can take him but me.
“How’s that for ya? Yeah I knew it would happen anyway. You could see right through me. You knew my soft heart wouldn’t be able to let him go, didn’t you?” (Sign.)
Once life cools down for a minute the posting will come again, and with my new found techniques and better writing skills the blog will be better than ever. Take care. Until next time.
I'm a writer journaling my writing experience plus some funny stories and observations. Take a look around.

I Have Good News and Bad: Which Do You Want First?
Hello everyone. Well I guess the bad news first, it will be easier to get it over with. The bird that was in my basement over the last few days, I found it yesterday morning. It was dead and dusty lying on the ground near my dryer. I was very sad. At lease the cats didn’t eat it, I could be glad for that. I was hoping the bird would fly into my apartment and get caught behind the curtain like the last bird and then I can capture it and bring it outside to freedom.
I picked it up in a towel and brought it outside. I did a small funeral and placed it in the trash. Not a fitting end to a beautiful animal. It deserved better.
I just wish I knew how the bird found its way to the basement in the first place. Then I could prevent another bird from the same end as this one. After I move it won’t be my problem, but I can’t help but worry about future birds getting stuck.
Such is the life of an animal. Survival of the fittest.
Update on Braveheart the Warrior.
My little kitty is doing fine and getting on everyone nerves. Well except mine and Little One my one eyed kitty. He seems to be a big brother and babysitter for me while I’m gone.
Braveheart and Little One seem to play together well and Little One is always trying to groom him. Braveheart being the little kitty he is, is always trying to tackle Little one and mock fighting. Braveheart is tying to hone his skills. Little one just bats him and they play around biting each other. It is very cute to see.
The others Romeo and Juliet are coming around. Romeo and Braveheart run around the house and chase each other. It is very good for both of them. I spied Juliet licking Braveheart at least twice while he was asleep, which is an improvement since she usually just hisses at him.
Updates On My Writing:
It is very difficult for me to write right now, because I am getting ready for the move. However I am still using my imagination to continue the story. I am documenting my thought and keeping track in my binder. It could get lost in the move, so I keep it close. I’d hate to be looking everywhere after I move when I need it right then. (Know what I’m talking about?). I say in my Gary Coleman voice.
I am working on some intrigue storyline involving two smaller characters who will be in the forefront soon for my blog storyline. “Three Ordinary Lives.” Doing the blog and writing my manuscript has taught me a lot. I’m still learning though so if you see something I should know, like grammar, typos, or anything else please let me know. I appreciate it.
Share, laugh, cry, grow and bond with others. Until next time.

This is Little One. As you can see he only has one eye.
His left eyes was severely infected when I first rescued him.
Sorry this is not the best picture of him.
Braveheart and Little One are playing together.
Little one is babysitting him. Isn't this cute.
Braveheart is so tiny compared.
The others Romeo and Juliet are coming around. Romeo and Braveheart run around the house and chase each other. It is very good for both of them. I spied Juliet licking Braveheart at least twice while he was asleep, which is an improvement since she usually just hisses at him.
This is Juliet. She is the little mommy to me
grooming me, but I wonder why she
won't be a mommy to Braveheart.
I think part of it is Braveheart want to wrestle all the time. She doesn't like that. Little One is always bugging her and she hisses at him too. Little One gets bored so I am glad to have Braveheart. Those two can have at it.

Reading Other Peoples Blogs.
There are a number of blog that I keep track of. Some of them are agents, editors and established favorite authors. People of the business that I love. Some of them are authors that have cool stories with their blogs.
I read one blog today that I have to talk about. The blog title is "Should Unpublished writers Blog?
This is a good question. One that I struggled with for some time before I decided I had some things to say and needed a forum to say them with.
This blogger feels that unpublished writers who wish to blog should, but if the writer doesn't feel like they have anything to say, than maybe they shouldn't. There is a lot more to it so, I have put a link for you to read and understand his point of view. However its the comments that I found more interesting. Check it out. http://kidlit.com/2010/07/21/should-unpublished-writers-blog/
By the admittance of the blogger, he writes about the business of writing and keeps his private life out of it, except this one time when his cat got sick. Years later people who meet him and have read his blog still ask about the cat. Here's an interesting point. While he feels it's a point of irritation. His readers use it to connect with him on a personal level. It makes him more human than just a business persona.
Why I started to blog:
I wanted to blog because I read that agents are looking for writers who have a readership going and can use that forum to sell their books. I thought about this for some time. Since I don't have a book yet why do it. What do I write about? Do I have enough to blog about? Will people even care that I have a blog or what I think and feel?
What I have learned is that while at first I worried if I had enough to talk about, I actually have more than I put on the blog to talk about, but don't have the time. Bloggers who state that blogging is a time sucker, they are correct. I could write about a lot, such as what happened on Bachlorette with Ali and Frank, or what is happening with Lindsey Lohan, or the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. I just figure there is enough about all that in the news.
I am blogging about my life and women's issues. Even though I haven't had much response I know I have readers. They just haven't had a desire to comment yet. I am unsure as to why, but my feeling is while I try to get a response from my readers, I will learn a great deal about writing. While I go about my business of life, I find myself thinking of ways to write events that happen. Not just for the blog but for my story and manuscript. Doing this helps me become a better storyteller.
Sometimes when I read other blogs I get an insight as to their thinking and am in awe. A lot of the things that they write about is inspiring. It may be in a small way but inspiring none the less. When it's a small thing that makes a difference in happiness or a way of life how can one fault that. Sometime it the combination of all the small things in someones life that make the bigger positive changes that is needed. If we can read it over a period of time through that blog we, the reader, will have gained a better perspective of that person and how it has changed them. We might even change ourselves because of it.
I don't want to start my blog after my manuscript is published, because then all I'd want to talk about is the book, touring, writing, and selling my book. I get bored with authors who write just about that stuff. I want to get to know the author. What they feel about things, how they go about their lives. Even though I love their books and characters, lets face it, real people are not like exciting characters in a book.
In blogging now, I will have learned a great deal on many things. I will have established myself and have readers who think of me as a person. Who know my writing and my voice. Who trust that I will deliver a good story. They will have gone through my struggles and triumphs. Read about my doubts and fears. Get updates on my progress and new storyline. In essence become apart of my life.
The other thing that I realized is, I yearn to write. Part of putting down my thoughts in this forum is to get them out of my head and relieve some of my stress. When readers who comment and connect with me, than I know that I am not alone. That makes all the difference in the world as to why I blog.
What do you think? Should you blog just for the sake of blogging or is there more to it than meets the eye. Share, laugh, cry, grow and bond with others. Until next time.

Moving Day is Approaching
Packing has it up’s and down’s. While I'm putting stuff in boxes, I'm thinking, do I really need it? A lot is getting tossed, on the up side less to pack and move.
Yesterday I had a surprise when I came home. One of the things I love the most about my cats is to have them greet me at the door. Moments later walking towards their food bowls wondering why I haven't fed them yet and where is the fresh water if you please.
"I'm hurrying, hold your horses." I tell them. As I place my things on the kitchen counter.
They just look from me to their bowls then back at me. (obvious)
This happens most day but when I came to the door and none of the cats were there to greet me I knew something was up. I looked everywhere for them. All I saw was little Braveheart.as he came running to me from the living room. (Of course I picked up the little handful and cuddled him to me. He purred sweetly.)
After looking everywhere I had a sneaky suspicion all the cats were in the basement, but why?
They were chasing a bird. It was in the basement flying around. Somehow it got caught down there, I don’t know how, but there he was hopping in the rafters, wings fluttering in panic.
The funny thing is when I first moved into the house another bird did the same thing. It was trapped in the basement and the cats were going crazy trying to capture it. I even wrote a short story about the adventure of finally removing it from the grips of all three cats. Now again there a bird, poor thing, in the basement going wild trying to escape. I hear it squawking and the frantic movement of the three predators.
How the other bird escaped, he flew into the living area and got trapped behind a curtain trying to get out of a window. I grabbed it, softly encasing it into my hand, then took it outside and released him. I can only hope to do the same for this wretched thing. I hope I don’t find it dead or half eaten. (I cringe at the idea)
Last day for medication for Braveheart.
Yep. Last day for him and me, he is all healthy now and running around happy.
I saw the cutest thing this morning. One of my other cats, Little one is his name, my one eyed kitty and friend to little Braveheart. They both had their heads in the same food bowl eating. This is something special because Little one is the house scarf. Meaning he eats most of the food by pushing the other aside. Now he is sharing. Can you believe it? And at one point Braveheart actually pushed Little One out of the way.
(I just had to shake my head)
Three Ordinary Lives Facebook Launching.
I launched the page for my blog storyline called Three Ordinary Lives yesterday and am fast gaining friends. I also connected with other writing groups and authors. Connect with us on Facebook and share with friends. (Three Ordinary Lives). Request to become friends and we can keep up.
Do you have any women’s issues that you want to discuss? I just have my boring life to blog as of now, but that can change in a moments notice. Do you have an issue or topic that you wish to discuss? Join in the discussion. Well you’re updates now, and I have to get back to work. Share, laugh, cry, grow and bond with others. Until next time.

Braveheart the Warrior: Found a new playmate.
If you have been keeping up on Braveheart you know that he, a sick rescued kitten that I nursed back to health, is now running around my house and making new friends.
I was very surprised after a little bit. I guess introductions are in order. I have three other cats that I rescued before and have become part of my family.
Romeo- ginger tiger striped domestic
Juliet- beige long hair domestic
Little one- ginger and while medium hair domestic.
When I first took on little one he was only 4 weeks old and had a severe eye infection that cost him his eye. The vet said if I had waited one more week the eye would have fell out. I saved the eye, not to be able to see but from falling out. In the end the eye had to be removed because he could get cancer in later years. So Little one is my one eyed kitty. He cost me over $500 and he is not going anywhere. (Turns out he ended up being the largest out of all my cats. So much for the name little one huh.)
Well it’s little one that is the big friend to Braveheart the Warrior. When I first opened the bathroom door to let Braveheart out he jumped and ran around like a banshee darting everywhere. All the cats were following his every move. It was little one who didn’t hiss at braveheart and who began to groom him. I knew right away that those two would be friends.

Over the weekend Braveheart has been playing with all of them. I want to show you what I mean.
That is Braveheart the Warrior in the middle of a toy
and the cat shown is my one eyed kitty Little One.
They are fast freinds now.
This is Braveheart sleeping later on after he tuckered himself out.
Isn't he cute or what. Oh the life of a kitty.
I couldn't get the pictures of the other cats yet. I will post those soon.
I did a lot of packing this last weekend. During all of it Braveheart was of course right by my body getting in the way. I decide I was not going to pack all the sh*t I have and started to go through some of it. Braveheart and the others were rummaging in it paying with the papers and stuff. It was cute but anoying.
I may be the top alpha but I still allow them to be cats. I wouldn't change the ways of cats in all the world. I love their free spirits and agility. The way they can give love.
I still have a lot to do. Hopefully I won't bore you with that too much but with more of my cats and their antics.
There isn't much going on other than moving and promoting my new story line "Three Ordinary Lives" Check it out and tell your friends. Share, laugh, cry, grow and bond with others. Until next time.

Bravehart the Warrior: Gets to walk around.
As some of you may know or if you are new to the blog. I rescued a little kitten named Braveheart the Warrior. I've had him for a little over a week, and he is recovering fast.
He was so funny. He sauntered toward the others and they eyed him with disdain. Of course he ignored them and acted like he owned their space. First thing he approached was the food bowl. That didn’t go well with the cats; it’s amazing how much venom cats can have toward a newcomer.
After him moseying around and done with smelling things he really got his second wind. Now he wanted to play. He cautiously walked up to my female cat, Juliet and smelled her tail. Juliet was tense, she sat quietly and waited to see what this little kitten was gonna do.
Braveheart did the usual thing that small kitten do. He arched his back and fanned out his tail, he reared up on all fours in preparation of a pounce, in mock fun. What does Juliet do? She jumps up with agile speed, far superior to Braveheart being as young as he is, and she hissed at him.
Braveheart stopped abruptly, getting her hiss of hatred, or jealously whichever way you want to look at it, and he took off in the other direction.
Of course I grabbed him and cuddled him, and spoke loving words to him, Then I spoke gentle words to Juliet, letting her know I love all of them and not to be upset.
I only allowed Braveheart ten minutes with those vultures. I know I’m being harsh with the others, but that is the nature of their game. I just play it better. You see, I am the alpha in the pack. What I say goes and they know it. They will come around of course, but by then Little Braveheart will have a new home hopefully.
Well that's all I have on little Braveheart for today. If you wish to discuss anything or want to contribute please email me at rhondamarsh1 at gmail dot com. Share, laugh, cry, grow and bond with other women. Until next time.
This is what he lloked like when he firs arrived.
He looks lost and sad.
This is what he looks like now.
What a difference.
As you can see his is full of live, heathy, his eyes are better, he is no longer sick, and he is extremely playful.
Being the playful kitty that he is he needs more room so. I let him walk around in the living room last night. I thought I would give him a chance to explore his surrounds more and get to know the other cats and I put them in my office while he walked around.
I allowed little Braveheart out of the bathroom this morning. he needs more room and a chance to explore some more.

Braveheart the Warrior: Updates
For any new readers to the blog, I rescued a little kitten; I named him Braveheart the Warrior. I have been documenting his progress.
My little Braveheart is running faster, jumping higher, biting harder. He is so healthy now and become a beauty.
He still sits upon his perch, which is his cat carrier, and sleeps. I have a towel on top. He makes the biggest mess in his litter box. Of course I need to get a bigger box for him. He races around the bathroom at top speeds and almost runs into the wall. He enjoys attacking my toes and biting my hands and arms.
When I open the door to see him he jumps off the perch and tries to run out the door. It is so cute, I catch, because he has to stop to stretch. His little back legs stretch and he takes a moment in which I grab him quickly and bring him back into the bathroom. (Part of the reason he stays in the bathroom is because his was quick sick when he first came to me. I kept him away from the others. It’s only been a little over a week.)
Did you know he has one green eye and one blue? The best thing about him is when he sits in my lap and cuddles. I bring him out of the bathroom and he sits with me and we watch TV together. Well he bits and plays with me while I try to watch TV. My other cats eye him suspiciously, although they haven’t hissed at him, which is a good sign.
I am very proud of his progress. After a while he gets tired and lays back and falls asleep in my arms. He still receives antibiotics and eye medicine twice a day.
Soon I will get some pictures of my other cats and post them. I might do some stories of their antics also.
Review of book.
As some of you might know. I am a big Sherilyn Kenyon fan. I read her first book in the Dark Hunter Series, “Fantasy Lover.” About a God who was cursed into a book and became a love slave to women who summon him. The book was really good. Sherilyn has a way of writing that is a page turner. Give her books a try and become a fan.
I’m reading the next book in the line, called “Night Pleasures’ Review in a few days.
Hope everyone has a great day. Share, laugh, cry, grow and bond with others. Until next time.
My little Braveheart is running faster, jumping higher, biting harder. He is so healthy now and become a beauty.
He still sits upon his perch, which is his cat carrier, and sleeps. I have a towel on top. He makes the biggest mess in his litter box. Of course I need to get a bigger box for him. He races around the bathroom at top speeds and almost runs into the wall. He enjoys attacking my toes and biting my hands and arms.
When I open the door to see him he jumps off the perch and tries to run out the door. It is so cute, I catch, because he has to stop to stretch. His little back legs stretch and he takes a moment in which I grab him quickly and bring him back into the bathroom.

Latest picture but he moves so fast I can barely get it.
