Nutty Chitter from a Caffeinated Critter
Happy Insecure Writer’s Support Group day! I’ll be slow to visit this week, because I’m on a wrication (that’s what I call it when I take vacation for the sole purpose of writing). My goal is to finish this version of the book this week. If you aren’t familiar with my struggles, I’ve had 6…

You might notice a new look to my site. I decided it needed a refresher since my old parent theme wasn’t getting updates anymore and the dropdowns no longer functioned. I switched to this new one, and though I’m not sure I’m in love, it’ll do. (EDIT: I just noticed the url is missing from…
Today is the first Wednesday of the month, which means it’s Insecure Writer’s Support Group day! I want to start off this post by letting you all know that FULL DARK is celebrating it’s 3rd anniversary! It’s a benefit anthology where all the proceeds go to the Gary Sinise Foundation, and we’ve donated over $200…
