The Rollercoaster Year of 2023
It’s been a rollercoaster of a year. A year of uncertainty and a year of a (mostly unacknowledged) recession that’s affecting freelancers, writers and publishers (and particularly the smaller presses) in so many ways.
But, dear reader, have no fear, this post isn’t doom and gloom. This post is about the one thing that keeps us as writers going, regardless of the ups and downs of publishing. This Read more of this blog post »

"An incredibly fun and well written romp that follows Jessica’s personal transformation from naïveté to badassery.
Lots of wit, heart and satire to boot. Reminded me a bit of Christopher Moore’s book “Noir: A Novel.” That’s high praise from me. " Read more of this review » |

"I don't normally read this type of book, but I'm glad I made an exception for Mad Dog and the Sea Dragon. This noir thriller is told by Jessica Wren, a gorgeous and vain woman raised by her older sister Glennis after their parents' murder-suicide.

“When hit by boredom, let yourself be crushed by it; submerge, hit bottom. In general, with things unpleasant, the rule is: The sooner you hit bottom, the faster you surface. The idea here is to exact a full look at the worst. The reason boredom deserves such scrutiny is that it represents pure, undiluted time in all its repetitive, redundant, monotonous splendor.
Boredom is your window on the properties of time that one tends to ignore to the likely peril of one's mental equilibrium. It is your window on time's infinity. Once this window opens, don't try to shut it; on the contrary, throw it wide open.”
