MOMENTOS
September 1st – September 15th, 2018

by Niall Doherty

In today’s Facebook live I talked about the direction I’m trying to take my business in, which is away from freelancing and towards creating more of my own stuff, videos especially. I’d like to tackle topics like Maria Popova and Tim...

Our team (which includes Glynn, the author!) gets a lot of questions about the Starship’s Mage reading order. Right now there are two different series in this universe, and each one has its own cast of main characters. How do you want to experience the universe: chronologically or by series?

OMG I finally finished writing Ashton Scott yesterday!! And he is my swooniest alpha to date! I mean, he still has his asshole ways, but the man knows how to look after his woman!

I looked it up, and I've been writing Ashton since April 2016. He started as a way for me to try to get out of a writi...

My October release, Her Lawman Protector, took a little bit of time to arrive. Normally I get my own copies a lot quicker, but Harlequin rushed out another box for me when mine didn’t arrive, and it landed on a my doorstep a couple of weeks ago. And here it is…

…in all its glory! I l...

I am beyond happy to share today’s guest post by Tiffany Gholar, author of A Bitter Pill To Swallow.

Tiffany is a Chicago-based artist working in a variety of media. She has three primary bodies of work: The Doll Project, Post-Consumerism, and Recessionism. She studied art as an undergraduate at t...

This story is the result of two beers at 3 a.m. when sleep was not an option.

“When I grow up, I want to be a dog.”

Mom smiled. “Hmm, a dog, Maybe you can be a collie, like Lassie?”

“No, I’m going to be a German shepherd.”

“But you don’t know German.”

“I can learn it.”

Twenty years la...

Recipient of the Kirkus Star and described as “Poe-like phantasmagoria amid Stephen King–style naturalism that results in a fictive world that’s familiar yet eerily strange—and plenty scary,” Phoenix Rose, the second novel by Michael Bailey, is back in print in a new second editio...

It seems to me that, in most cases, the people we admire and aim to emulate often have no idea how well they’re thought of. Particularly, I think it’s true of women. We often don’t know our worth, and how would we when no one really talks about their inspirations?

I’m here to change that. Because...

New Labour’s ‘third way’ promised to end the clash between left and right. But did the fantasy of politics without strife create our age of anger?

Politics is raw in Britain today. Remainers rage against Brexiters and vice versa. Pensioners are set against millennials; nationalists against immigra...

Yesterday I produced my Fall Prediction listing of 2019 Caldecott and Newbery contenders. But what if one of those books wins the Caldecott or Newbery Award proper? You know what happens in these cases, don’t you? Either the poor winner is so overwhelmed by the question “What’s Next?” from a popu...

Follow Your Dreams Dreams are almost always related to goals. In fact, I would say all dreams are goals. But not all goals are dreams. You’re working toward your college degree? That’s a goal. It might be a dream, too, but not necessarily. You’re applying for a job to earn enough money to pay off...

First of all, we’ve had a lot of men in trees here, working on fire prevention. It’s been a lovely writing view for weeks. But I didn’t feel right sharing a pic of them without permission, so instead I found one on the internet.

One of the biggest challenges for photographers is learning how to produce properly exposed photos. This is where the histogram comes in, it helps us evaluate the brightness of the image.

The histogram is broken down into black on the left and white on the right with shadows, midtone...

Today I’m so pleased to welcome debut YA author and Wild Rose Press sistah, Christine Grabowski.

Christine’s debut YA Novel, Dickensen Academy, is out and doing fabulously with readers and reviewers alike.

Today, she’s brought along two of her characters from the book, Autumn and Ben,  for a sit-d...

I’ve done a lot of reading the last couple of months, mostly fiction but some nonfiction. As usual, many of them are rather forgettable so today I’ll just talk about five that I enjoyed and are definitely worth your time, and then four others that do exactly what they promise to do and so might p...

Citizen Lab has published a new report about the Pegasus spyware. From a ZDNet article:

The malware, known as Pegasus (or Trident), was created by Israeli cyber-security firm NSO Group and has been around for at least three years -- when it was first detailed in a report over the summer of 2016.

Today’s guest post is by our dear friend Diane Meyer, who tells a great and fun story that really fits with the character of our generous, delightful God. Most giving stories I hear don’t involve a dice game and a Harley Davidson motorcycle. But that’s what makes this one so unique.

However, th...

Thanks to Naomi, who tells me this cake was a hell of a deal.

Hey Friendly Friends ~

I just received a very legitimate email from a reader, asking if she found the right website … because my last blog post was over a year ago. *Insert sheepish emoji* Y’all. IT’S BEEN OVER A YEAR. Which means two things:

Time flies freakishly fast.

I’m not really that good...
