Hey! It's Saturday! Last week was hectic as anything, but I managed to survive. No one likes almost $700 in car repairs, but they were necessary.

When good books go unread (and bad ones sell)
Hey! It's almost March! Spring's coming...the lawn is thawing out. Got the pruning done, and the house is getting cleaner. I should be able to open windows and doors soon, which means less time spent getting interrupted by the cats wanting to go in or out. LOL Let me start by saying there's a lot … Continue reading When good books go unread (and bad ones sell)
No Special Snowflake here

When you’re more than a writer
So, yeah, it's crunch time for the P&E polling. Voting shuts down tomorrow night, and 'Guarding Charon' has plummeted to 5th place. Much as I want to win (and, trust me, I DO), it's not the end of the world. It won't make or break me as an author. It doesn't translate into great sales … Continue reading When you’re more than a writer
