Keep Missoula Weird

More than a popular bumper sticker, it’s a way of life in Missoula, Montana. Sometimes that leads to rather strange, wild and crazy things, but it also leads to amazing compassion and action. All of that was displayed in May. The Clark Fork River runs through the middle of Missoula. It’s beautiful, despite being hemmed…

MISCON

The last two weeks, I’ve done nothing but sand. Filling sandbags, getting more sand for volunteers to fill more bags, taking care of the volunteers, all of it has been about the Clark Fork flooding homes in Missoula. Now, I’m doing something for me. Something I’ve wanted to do for a long time. I’m attending…

Lightwave: Clocker is LIVE!

It’s alive! My book is alive. Only on Amazon, but it’s out there! I’m weirdly excited and terrified all at the same time. Because of all my Team Rubicon work in Missoula, I haven’t been able to do much promotion or anything, but I still got it out there before my publication date – win!…

Coming Soon! Lightwave: Clocker

I’m so excited! I will publish Lightwave: Clocker May 21st, 2018! The book is currently in the hands of my proofreader–a miracle occurred and I sent it early–and the artwork is completed and completely awesome. For now, I will only be publishing on Amazon. I know some of you are Nook or iTunes fans, but as a…

Operation Slow Snow

Here I go again with the boring refrain. It’s been too long since I did a blog post. Sigh. You’d think I’d learn. But I had a good excuse this time. (Photo by Irv H. TR Canada – The ASM & AM cut firewood) This winter has been rough for everyone, but the northern tier…

Too long

Sorry it’s been so long since I’ve updated my progress – it’s been a busy month in the Scott household. Lightwave Publishing LLC is a reality and I have a bank account and PayPal set up. I’ve also sent my book brief off to Deranged Doctor Design – my chosen cover designer. They do my…

Gonna make a resolution, that I’ll never make another one…

I don’t make resolutions, but I do make plans. Since I was a strategic planner and project manager the last half of my military career, it comes naturally. So, here’s my big goal: 2018 is the year I independently publish. I’m going to let you know how it’s going along the way. I made the…

Night Shift Christmas — A short, sweet romance — Free!

Calendia Martin is happy to work Christmas. With no family near and few friends, she’ll take the extra-long shift and avoid the whole Christmas glad-tidings-and-good-cheer-thing. But Christmas has other plans for Callie… Night Shift Christmas will be on this website through 2017 as my gift to you. If you’d like to give a gift in…

Ghost Trees

The Bitterroot Valley is usually referred to as the ‘banana belt’ of Montana. A few times every winter, high pressure decides to camp out over us and we turn into the freezer of Montana. Inversions fill the valleys with fog and wood stoves make the problem worse. The only way to see the sun is…

Grateful

Today, I’m grateful. I have a wonderful husband who supports all my semi-crazy ventures. I have a great family, who I love. I have a fantastic Team Rubicon TRibe who help me help others on their worst days. I live in the most beautiful place on earth. God gave me a clear voice and the…
