Nutty Chitter from a Caffeinated Critter
I think many writers are people-pleasers. We want other people to enjoy our work. You get that review where the person states your story is their favorite, and you just swell with pride. That happened to me. You may or may not know of a project I participated in a while back called The Seven….
Before I get into the main post, I wanted to ask that you please check out The Ancient. I was fooling around this last weekend, and found that you can almost read my whole story in the preview. And as a writer, I have that deep-seated desire to be read. Even if you don’t pick…
Whooboy! I think I’ve finally gotten a breather. My house is clean, my family’s illness has reduced to the occasional sniffle and cough, and my husband fixed the leak beneath the bathroom sink that was threatening to flood our downstairs. Life is good. The signing last Thursday was fantastic. I met a few new people,…
I love puns. There’s nothing better than a corny joke to send me into a fit of giggles. And when I’m giggling, I’m not fretting over my insecurities. If you haven’t seen by now, I’ve got a book signing tomorrow. Eeek! Will I have enough books? Will I sell any? Will people like my swag?…

Proceeds from the Amazon-exclusive Of Mist And Magic go to the Elevate Life and Art…
It’s time for an update post! Woohoo! On Monday, C. Lee McKenzie wrote blog post about log lines. I’d already planned this post with the log lines I have, but now I think I need to revise. What do you think? Monsters By saving his wife, he condemned his world. Isto, Thanmir War‘s sequel, has…
Hey look, I plastered my face to the top of this post! A while back, Carrie Butler tagged me in this Not-So-Accidental Blog Tourist hop. I wasn’t sure if I was going to participate, because it’s a lot like the one I did for Chrys Fey, and I wasn’t sure who to tag. But since…
This last Monday, I participated in a photo shoot for a local writing collaboration. We faced the heat and made our way to the Old Penitentiary. I decided to play with HDR for this featured photo, which seems to add a funky glow. But then, my photography skills don’t quite measure up to the professionals….
