Hey! Not sure how many have missed me, but I'm still here and kicking! For almost two years now, I've been in a rabbit hole of sorts. Losing my mom in 2015, followed by my dad in 2016. My youngest being assaulted at school, and the case still pending. Life in general put a lot … Continue reading Responsibility and the Rabbit Hole

Waiting things out
Nine years ago, something happened in my life. For most people, they'd wonder why a D&D character would make any sort of impact in real life. Perchance I was a bit TOO connected to her. The thing is, that group of friends had been meeting every single Saturday for about 2 1/2 years. We too … Continue reading Waiting things out
Keep it professional
Hey! It's Friday! Oldest has been retrieved from college for the summer, and the quiet of the house is disturbed by the sounds of her unpacking and shuffling stuff around. I've been thinking about this for a few days and thought it was time to get those thoughts down. Every author needs to maintain a … Continue reading Keep it professional
Back in the saddle again
Hey! Are you there? I know I haven't posted for a while and thank you for not unfollowing my blog because of it. Life happened. On May 25th, I had surgery. The weeks leading up to it were full of taking care of things I wouldn't be able to for a while afterward. Then, it … Continue reading Back in the saddle again
What a week!
Good morning! So, vacation's this week. We're off later this morning to get the a/c fixed in my van. Not a terribly fun thing on vacation, but it also means I don't sit at the dealership for 6 hours. LOL The house is still quiet. Right now, it's just me and the cats awake. And … Continue reading What a week!
On the author/reader relationship
Hello! It's a Sunday afternoon. House is quiet, though not writing quite yet. Need to transport the youngest to hang out with a friend soon. As a writer, an author, I give a lot to my readers. I give a small piece of myself in every book I write. Each and every word, character mannerism, … Continue reading On the author/reader relationship
A good week gets even better
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. Now to try and sell some books and recoup at least part of that. I had a couple of really good things happen last week. One just came to … Continue reading A good week gets even better
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)
Why I hate automated DM’s
Happy Thursday! Snow is gone, sun is actually shining right now. And my husband's 5 month old kitten is full on toddler mode. LOL So, something happens to me on Twitter. Talking with other authors, publishers, and friends, it happens to them a lot. And it's those annoying automated direct messages we get whenever we … Continue reading Why I hate automated DM’s
No Special Snowflake here
Hey everyone! I'm snowed in today. LOL. Seattle got a rare blanket of white last night. Hubby made it to work, but getting from our neighborhood to a main road was interesting. If there's no pressing need for me to go anywhere, I'm waiting for it to melt. Power is still on, meaning we have … Continue reading No Special Snowflake here
