Goodreads Authors

It’s hell to wait for the next book!

Between my day job and just life in general, Rinda and I can’t always churn out books as fast as we would like.

Since the start of 2018, readers h... Read more of this blog post »

What do you prefer in a romantic story- sex for the sake of having sex (no real storyline they just sort of go at it with very little preamble) or would you rather read about a couple falling in love and the sex kind of falls in with the storyline?

in the doing of a thing there is often a lull and in that lull a curvature of worry that perhaps something has too quickly taken shape and so one might be led to explore creating, not to make, but to evoke and I will attempt, here, to do that and hope it is a space that takes up only its own.

Where the first episode of Castle Rock sets up the story and characters, the second episode expands on them. I feel this will be a show with no filler episodes. In fact, there appears to be multiple stories going on at once. So much happened it’s actually difficult to summarise it all in one post...
