Monmouth castle feature's in all three episodes. I had the pleasure of visiting the ruins again a few weeks ago. The feeling of standing between the walls where history, and the characters in my book stood, is great.
There is very little left of the castle now. The ruins unfortunately don't seem a... Read more of this blog post »

Our Bloody Pearl by D.N. Bryn

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I was happy to receive a review copy of this book and am SO glad to have been lucky enough to read this story. It is amazing! The world-building is excellent, but enough like our world that I had no difficulty understanding anything, it was a j... Read more of this blog post »

Hello Loves!

A cluttered space receives nothing; not even fresh air. We must learn to remove stuff out of our path that is used for nothing but a space filler. GOD can't move in your life and replace the bad with the good if you're still hanging on to mess. I had to learn the hard way. I used to h... Read more of this blog post »

After my hiatus from writing to get my MBA, I am finding it quite refreshing to get back to creative writing. I missed my fantasy world a great deal.

Is it really almost September?

It has been a Rollercoaster of a summer and I never even went to a theme park!

The ups? I had some time to unwind and relax, I spent time at the cottage and wrote. I took a trip out west to B.C. and was inspired by the beautiful landscape and mountains.

The lows? I... Read more of this blog post »

Reading Patrick Rothfuss' latest blog (found here) reminded me that I had been neglecting my own, too. I empathize, sympathize, and commiserate with that man, and everything he says in that blog post. If you've been following along, I've talked about my own mental health in previous posts. While...

It's been a weird old week around here. I was supposed to be painting, but the rain came in and the humidity went sky high, so that didn't happen and the room is still sitting there looking dreary.

However, the writing has gone very well indeed. The Heir of Ghlent has now passed the 100,000-word m... Read more of this blog post »

It's convenient to have a common name. When others research your name on a slanderous site they find five hundred "you's". What happened in Kansas stays in Kansas.

Other names you may recognize at once. The signature Picasso applies to only one man. There may be a Stanley Picasso, but when you en... Read more of this blog post »

Bullshit Jobs: A Theory by David Graeber

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Finally, a book that really gets into a question that not enough of us are asking: why are there so many bullshit jobs out there?

In times forgotten, in memories now old
Where stories of love still remained untold,
There was a soul that had wandered far and alone
Trying to find a way for his sins to atone.

Lies were his friend, they hid his name.
They hid his past, they hid his shame.
Bodies had died and faces burned away,
But mur... Read more of this blog post »

Good afternoon, Arrowheads! Boy, do I have a treat for you today! Okay, maybe the book itself is more of a treat than this review, but anyway. I can’t stop gushing about the I Can Only Imagine movie, and I can now testify that Bart Millard’s memoir is just as amazing!

When I set out to write FAERY SIGHT, my intent wasn’t to produce a full length novel, much less a series. I just wanted to entertain people in my family. I figured it would be a short story, a novella at best.
