I'm up way too early for having the day off, but my mind won't rest. Grocery run, a trip to Seattle to get my dress & shoes, laundry, dishes, and either D&D prep or writing.   Oh, and cleaning the house.   The SCA kingdom I play in recently made the tough decision to cancel … Continue reading We will get through this.

“What’s that, Adam?” Moon pointed at the cylinder that hung from the warlock’s belt. She’d not seen it before. He looked down as they walked. “It’s the device Vizeran made.” “What’s it do?” “It’s supposed to show us a hidden passage that’ll lead to Lolth’s lair without us being detected.” Her whiskers twitched. “Really?” Quickly, … Continue reading The Murder Hobos – Episode 53 – Tick, Tick, Tick

Thia stood near the door while Jinnaari and Adam talked to Vizeran. Pan and Caelynn were nearby. Judging by the way her cousin was wincing at every sound, his hangover still raged. Jinnaari was right; Pan had to suffer the consequences of his drinking this time. “Ideally,” the Drow mage was saying, “this should be … Continue reading The Murder Hobos – Episode 52 – Back on the trail

Morning everyone! Happy first day of daylight savings time! My body handles the time change fairly well, though I have friends who seriously don't do well twice a year because of it. Muse wasn't thrilled, either. Haha. But she never likes letting me sleep in long past her treat time. Yesterday, we spent part of … Continue reading Spending a day in a city battling with an epidemic

Pan woke up, his head screaming in pain. He didn’t want to move. Every single part of him hurt. “I know you’re awake,” Jinnaari said. “Do you have to talk so loud?” Pan whined. He raised one hand to his face, shielding his eyes from the meager light the tower gave them, and opened them. … Continue reading The Murder Hobos – Episode 51 – A hangover he deserves

Adam walked silently down the short corridor that led to the circular common room. Vizeran had given them all rooms that led to the shared space. After the way their host had isolated Thia before dinner, Jinnaari thought it wise that some of the party keep an eye on her room during the night. He … Continue reading The Murder Hobos – Episode 50 – Too Much Beer

One thing I love doing is playing D&D. I've played a version of the game, off and on, since I was about 10. I've been involved in some great games...and some not so great ones. The group of friends my husband and I play with currently is among the best. Life has not been kind … Continue reading Gaming interruptus

One of the drawbacks of working a retail job is that your hours change weekly. One week, I'll do shifts that start early in the day. I get off before my son and husband come home. I can get the household stuff done, make dinner, and get an hour or two of writing in. Others, … Continue reading Finding time to write

Hey everyone! I'm sitting in a coffee shop, waiting for a meeting to start. I do this about every 3 months. I always head down here early. If I leave by 1:15, it's a 1 hour drive. If I leave anytime after 2, it can take 3 hours. Sigh. Traffic in the greater Seattle/Tacoma area … Continue reading Before you complain about the price of a book…

Morning, everyone. Yes, I live in the same county as the recent deaths from the Coronavirus. No, I am not sick. I mean, I was. Two weeks ago. I know it wasn't that particular nasty, though. Why? Because I was tired and severely congested, but I had none of the symptoms. No cough, no fever, … Continue reading When a book’s plot comes to life
