Santa Sandwich #erotic #christmas #kindleunlimited
Have you heard the story of the shelf laid elf?

Over winter break, Candi is stuck working at the mall at Santa’s Workshop as an under-dressed elf. When the looming cost of the coming semester’s textbooks becomes a stark reality, the Workshop photographer offers her a job she can’t possibly refuse. The best part is, she still gets to work with the same people, right there in Santa’s Workshop.

Much Needed Down Time
Despite all the things I have going on this month, believe it or not this is a rest month for me. I’ve only committed to reading for regular clients, I am not answering email unless it serves my agenda 100%.The only videos I’m doing are for Authors Unwritten. I do not have any classes, conventions, signings, author readings, or talks to go to. At most I have one writer social event to attend (a coffee klatch at a local diner), and that sounds like a fun couple of hours. Not taxing on my time...

Movie Review: Hereditary #horror #demons
There was a LOT of vitriol and criticism of this movie within the non-generational Daemonolatry community when it came out. I generally roll my eyes when people criticize movies like this because movies are fiction and the simple fact is that the idea of supernatural demons scares a lot of people. Not to mention daemons have been used as plot devices to scare the pants off of primarily Judeo-Christian audiences since the nineteen-sixties at least. That’s not going to change. The sooner occ...

It’s SO Wicked! #WickedWays #kindlebooks

With magic, mayhem sometimes follows.
I’m Elise Marybell Marple, owner of the magic shop Wicked Ways. Halloween has always been my favorite day of the year – until now. After accidentally giving my vampire best friend a love spell the equivalent of garlic, and inadvertently casting an attraction spell on my demon stalker, I’m not having the best of holidays. It’s not just my own spells going horribly wrong. Nope. Spells I cast for customers have started to backfire too, and...

Manifesting
A friend of mine (non-occultist) who is truly amazing at reaching her goals, often pauses in her day, takes a deep breath, sets her intention firmly in her mind, and says one word, “Manifesting.” Whether she realizes it or not, she’s practicing magick. She is causing changes to conform to her will. She is manifesting her intent simply by grounding and centering herself and manifesting it.
We don’t often realize just how something as simple as a thought, or spoken and written words actually ma...

(End of) Second Quarter Update #amwriting #indiepublife
It’s the start of the third quarter of 2019, and it’s about time I update my readers on the progress of each of my pen names. The lull of summer (and the business of it) has, in fact, slowed me down a bit. This is the time of year I spend more time with family and friends, get the car checked out, settle all my yearly maintenance appointments and so on. Just because you know the weather will be okay and it will be easy to get everything done without having to worry if a random snow storm will...

Setting Boundaries Does Not Equal Unelightenment
Any time I openly set boundaries about certain types of reader email or make mention of the things in the occulture that I find irritating, I am occasionally met with some variation of the following response:
“You asked for this [people wasting your time and being trolling assholes] by writing books. Quit complaining. You make money from this. So maybe you should STFU, stop answering questions [if you get too many emails that cross boundaries], and concentrate on writing more books. Work on...

Naturally Cat
Anyone who knows me knows that I am a cat person. I grew up with cats, dogs, horses, chickens, cows. While I love all animals, cats are my animal companion of choice. They’re relatively low maintenance, and they’re great at keeping you company. My husband and I have had as many as five cats in our household at once.
A few years back, after the last two of our cats (both 17 years old) passed away, we went to the local no-kill cat rescue to adopt two adult cats. As I sat there playing with the...
