• An Author Among Us.

    So, a strange thing has been happening at work lately. A very small frenzy seems to have started up about my books. Now, last year, a few of my coworkers expressed interest in reading Soulless and Bowlful of Bunnies, and so I got them copies, and that was kind of that for a while. My…

  • But I like you.

    So this showed up on my Facebook feed the other day, and the feels, they are REAL. Not only is there an adorable drawing of a kitty cat, but it rather succinctly sums up a part of my personality that has always driven me crazy. I am quite possibly the worst person when it comes…

  • Get Hype.

    What does this rickety old train car given over to the power of Nature have to do with the month of July? Everything. You see, July is the month when I buckle down and finish my manuscript for the next book in The Slayer Saga to prepare it for publication in August. I’m finishing up…

I’ve also been wanting to do some A-to-Z challenges, but I know…

  • Hello, lovelies! Things have been quiet around here again, but I’m going to blame that on my deep involvement in edit-land, because I emerge from the silence on the search for those who might like to volunteer their time to helping me make my book even better. The Slayer Saga: Heartless is ready for beta…

  • More, More, More!

    The other night, I received the excellent news that my story, “Laura and Ollie,” was accepted for publication in the next issue of The First Line, a really cool journal where all the stories published all start with the same line. I’m incredibly excited to have been chosen and to see what other twists on…

  • “These poor bastards didn’t know mescaline from macaroni.” Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas: A Savage Journey into the Heart of the American Dream by Hunter S. Thompson. For my complete and utter lack of exposure to drugs, I find myself certainly fascinated by drug culture, especially in literature. Perhaps it’s merely my fascination with…

  • If I recall correctly, I was making a post rather similar to this more than a month ago, but here I am, back from another strange, unintended break. The crux of the problem this time was the roommate with the cable bill moving out and canceling it, needing to get a new service, and just…
