I'm trying to focus but – Squirrel!
Caty Zorn is a woman on a mission. “It seems that in our hectic and chaotic lives it becomes easy to disconnect our hearts and souls from our bodies and our minds.” -Caty Zorn Caty’s goal is to write books that help us think and feel both above and below the belt, so to speak, …
Often, a novel is referred to as a baby. We writers spend hours upon hours, nurturing, directing, tearing down and building up. And, like bringing up children, we can’t do this alone. No matter how much we want to. WARNING: SEGUE Writers are, it seems, by nature, solitary types. We sit in a room full …
Upcoming is Life’s a Beach. It’s about Kathryn, a bitter devorcee who just wants her ex to be a father to their son, and Dillon, a detective who finds Kathryn an interesting mystery. And surprise! There’s another dog. 😀 Kathryn hopes that Bruno will keep her sexy neighbor away. Right now, I’m in the process of revising …
It’s hot this summer. Okay. It’s hot every summer in my little corner of the world. It’s too far a reach for this segue, so I’ll just get straight the point rather than making some tragically failed attempt at a water metaphor. 😀 I did it. I hit finalize and submit. Roadster Romance will be …
Squeeeee!!!!! Full on Fangirling. You know how we all have our favorites? Well, I get to interview mine. Shhh. Don’t tell him or it’ll go to his head, or he’ll overthink it and turn in on himself trying to live up to what he thinks are my expectations. And don’t tell any of my other …

This is my plan. A few writer friends are getting their novels formatted, showing off their cover art, looking for final beta readers (omega readers?) and asking if I want to be included in acknowledgements. While I won’t be so patronizing as to suggest it’s like watching the birth of a baby, it is, to …
I am a rebel. Um. Okay, I’ll be honest. I’m rebellious. That’s difficult to admit. In fact, I feel like I should say — My name is Julia, and I’m rebellious. Some of it really is because I’ve found things that work for me, and the things that are more “normal” don’t work for me. …
I have a friend. I like her. She’s pretty cool. An introvert (birds of a feather flock in large packs of one). She’s married, has kids, and a cat. She and I sometimes have long conversations. Sometimes just a look and a laugh. She’s a health coach. What is that? No clue. I’m not sure …
I’ve decided the first post of a blog (for me anyway) is like the first pancake or the first date or the first kiss. It’s never quite what you’re imagining. The first pancake might be thinner than you thought, maybe even pale. The first date involves avoiding activities and topics of conversation that make you …
