Hot & Cold Release
The second book in the Boston Blight universe is launching this coming Friday, February 13th, 2023. I am so excited to share this book with you. So far, my ARC readers have really enjoyed it. My cover designer, Angel Leya, knocked it out of the park with this one. Of course, she does that with …

2022 In Review
This year has been a nail-biter from the start to the finish. Lots of ups and downs and life changes and figuring things out. To bullet point it rather than write out everything long form (because you���d be here for hours): Most of this hasn���t had so much to do with my writing, but at …

What To Do Now That NaNo’s Done
Hey, friends! I’m sorry this blog has been quiet the last few weeks. The holidays have been catching up to me, and I’ve been really busy planning the writing conference I’m putting on with some friends of mine. More on that at the end, though.

What it’s like to work with an editor
One of the things that I realized was never taught in any of my creative writing courses in college or even discussed a lot in most of the writing groups I’ve been in is exactly what it’s like to work with a professional editor. So, since I have been on both sides of that experience, …

Rejection, Writing, and Neurodivergence
This post is going to be a little different than my usual posts because it���s not advice for writers. It���s actually more of a self-examination of an aspect of writing and how it affects me, personally. I���m going to be trying to add a little diversity to this blog and discuss this kind of thing …

ADHD Medication Difficulties
You may have noticed I’ve been gone for a hot minute. Part of that was some work-life balance issues I was having, but a lot of it came from the wellspring of psych meds gone awry. Which isn’t to say I won’t continue taking mine, but it is one of those things that you don’t …
