Let’s get real, shall we?
I'm a bit off kilter today. Some of it may be related to seeing 'The Last Jedi' last night. No spoilers from me, I loved it. Even if I'm still feeling a bit of shock from the ending. To be honest, that's a sign of excellence. The team - actors, writers, producers, director, all of … Continue reading Let’s get real, shall we?
Inspiration isn’t enough
Hey everyone! It's gearing up to be a super busy weekend. 6 days until we see the new 'Star Wars' movie! Yeah, that's my fandom of choice. We can discuss that another time, though. Everyone talks about being creative, finding inspiration from the things around them. You can read countless stories on social media about … Continue reading Inspiration isn’t enough
Stop the excuses!
Hey everyone! Really glad right now that there's no video involved with this blog. LOL. Just got finished with some time on my bike, and I'm a hot, sweaty mess. LOL.

What makes a book sell?
Hey everyone! Hope you're gearing up for the holidays. Things are starting to get busy around here, that's for certain. You hear a lot about how a cover can make or break a book. Or that you shouldn't judge a book by its' cover (or movie). Sometimes you read a review where the reader rips … Continue reading What makes a book sell?
On awards, honors, and disappointment
Hey everyone! So, the Whole Life Activation awards were this past Friday. While I was deeply honored to be on the short list, another author won. I have no doubt that she is talented and deserving of the honor. And, despite all of you that voted for the cover for 'Guarding Charon', it didn't even … Continue reading On awards, honors, and disappointment
Channeling pain and loss
Hey everyone. I can't really think about books much today. I'm afraid I'm numb. The ideas are there. Books will be written, promoted, etc. But I fear sometimes that we as a society simply don't care enough any more. Not about books. But about each other. It's not about gun control, or a good person … Continue reading Channeling pain and loss

Flying high but staying grounded
It's Monday! It's been an interesting week since I last posted. In some ways, I'm still processing everything. And it was all good things! First off, I found out I'm now on the short list for Author of the Year from Whole Life Activation, a group in London, England that celebrates women making a difference. … Continue reading Flying high but staying grounded
Let’s talk about whining
Hey! It's Monday! It's getting colder out. I threw on a jacket this morning before driving our youngest to school. And am now swathed in one of my dad's cardigans. I want to talk about one of the worst behaviors as an adult. It's not just a writer problem. But we need to stop whining … Continue reading Let’s talk about whining
