    Holiday Madness

    ByKristen Koster December 17, 2010March 29, 2017

    Drafting or Drifting?

    ByKristen Koster December 7, 2010March 29, 2017

    In my last post, I talked about how my writing style seems to be rather Cyclic in Nature, either full-on or drifting between bouts of inspiration. The good news is that I’ve finished a very rough draft of Beneath His Touch and I’m looking ahead to 2011 and starting to build my goals list. While…

    Cyclic in Nature

    ByKristen Koster November 14, 2010March 29, 2017

    In the past three years (Gosh, it doesn’t seem like it’s been that long!), I’ve come to realize that my writing process is quite cyclic in nature. This isn’t so much tied to the time of year when I may or may not have more free time, but feels more like one of those buckets…

    Ruts Suck

    ByKristen Koster May 28, 2010March 30, 2017

    I think my parents messed up when I was born. My middle name should have been ‘procrastination’ instead of what they wrote down on the form at the hospital. Unfortunately, even knowing that the longer something is put off the harder it becomes to start doesn’t seem to prevent me from falling into those same…

    DS & Surgery

    ByKristen Koster January 26, 2010

    Tomorrow’s the big day! Our son is going in to have his sinuses drained. Specifically his sphenoid sinuses. He’s advanced to chronic sinus disease (triggered by allergies) and this is the first surgery he’s going to remember having. He’s worried, but resigned. It’s a day surgery, so we hope to have him home again tomorrow…
