Dangerous Game
"You're playing a dangerous goddamn game," I warned Nadeema. "Looking into my mind without permission."
She scowled at my words. "Please watch your language in my shop."
I laughed. "I'm a black witch. Profanity is part of my religion."
"What do you want with me, daughter of the Witch Queen?"

How happy are you?
Although it is wonderful that there is increased interest and research in positive psychology, it unfortunately suffers from being too deterministic. What I mean is that it is based on a scientific premise that our personalities are the result of our ideas, emotions, and the environment. It does...

2019 Recap
As the end of the year is approaching, it's time for another recap. Compared to 2018, it was a less intense year in terms of books: I only released two, compared to four last year.
I opened 2019 with the release of Dragon Diplomacy, my first Middle Grade fantasy novel, which I did not predict to b... Read more of this blog post »

Welcome to my first Goodreads blog! I've been learning that the hardest part of being an self-published author is marketing my work! Trying to convince people they should read my book takes a lot of time and effort (certainly more than writing, editing, or publishing ever did!)

Whispers
Whispers numb your ear
scatters of glances
all around
you feel as if you fallen
but where is the ground
fear; anxiety
grabs at you
won't let go
worry holds you down
can't breathe
can't get up
knocked down
just survive

So, I started this post on Wednesday, December 4, 2019, but then — needing to head out to meet Sam for beer, wings, and conversation — decided to put it aside for a “Throwback Thursday” visit to my old diaries. I know it’s now actually the 5th, but I’m going to stick with these entries I found...

Ireland, you sleep so soundly. Is it the cold?
Many people over time have said to me how they love to sleep when the rain and wind is howling outside. They tend to feel more comfortable when they hear the noise the rain makes on the roof or pelting off of their windows. Something makes their warm bed seem so much more enjoyable. They sleep be...

I woke up at four in the morning with an idea for how a character's hair works. That sounds weird (likely because it is), but it will make sense in the context of the story. I'd never thought about her hair beyond what it looked like, but this new midnight insight actually adds to her character i...

Interview with Tana French
Dublin crime novelist Tana French has the kind of critical reviews that other writers would…well, die for. Her debut murder mystery,
In the Woods
, won rave reviews and multiple literary prizes upon its release in 2007. Since then, her books have tended to haunt the bestseller lists, on both sides of the pond, and for months at a time. British newspaper The Independent has dubbed French "The First Lady of Irish Crime," and The Washington Post says she is the most important crime novelist to emerge in the past ten years. ...more
