• Originally posted on Grim Reader Reviews: I recently had a sit down with Max Booth III and Lori Michelle to talk about their adventures with Perpetual Motion Machine Publishing (Is this the longest named publisher in the industry?). Anyway, Max and Lori at PMMP have been grafting away since the summer of 2012 releasing a…

  • Monday Morning Reset.

    My favorite day of the week is here! The prospect of new things is always an enticing thing, so I think my latest habit of a “clean slate” on Mondays is really helping to keep me motivated and excited about what I’m working on by introducing new things into the mix and hopefully finishing up…

  • Monday on a Tuesday.

    Since yesterday was a bit special, I chose to post about my recent lessons learned from a touch of failure instead of my weekly Monday Reset Button. Because every Monday, I try to look toward the next week with a clean slate, and I still did that. I just didn’t write about it, so I’m…

  • So where’s Fearless?

    Today is a day that comes with a little twinge of guilt and disappointment for me. August 15th has been the release date for my Slayer Saga novels for the past two years, and I had every intention of bringing the final volume of the trilogy, Fearless, out at this time. I remember last year…

  • After a very long two months, I have finally had the chance to conduct my well-overdue interview with the very patient Helen Mihajlovic, whose story in last year’s World Unknown Review took us back to an old classic in a new way. And here I thought the wait for last interview was bad! Well, here…

  • Monday Morning Reset.

    Yeah, most people hate Mondays, but I guess that’s a weird benefit of working two unconventional jobs. Mondays are pretty consistently one of my days off, so I really look forward to it, especially since I’ve decided that, on Mondays, I wipe the slate clean, so to speak, and embark on a few new and…

  • Good news, everyone! Now that I have a fancy new computer, I can get back to updating the Featured Story every month like I had originally planned. Although Shan Jeniah Burton got a little bit of extra exposure by having her story, “Monday Morning Coffee,” up a bit longer, it’s finally time to move onto…

  • Editor Mode: ACTIVATE.

    Those of you who are paying attention know that it’s August, which means I’m going to start talking about the World Unknown Review a lot these next couple months. August is when I really start to hone in and focus on getting submissions and reading them, leaving a good solid three months before the October…

  • People are creatures of habit, sure, some of us more than others, and, I’ve found, authors even more more so than others. We like things to happen in a certain way; we have specific times for writing, for editing, for whatever else we might do. I, personally, am very big on systems, and in I…

  • #BlackLivesMatter

    I usually don’t like to get too political on my blog. The current state of things is such a confusing mess that even I’m not sure what my thoughts are, and there are things like our current racial division in the U.S. that makes me feel upset, confused, and generally voiceless. I’m a white girl…
