Dead and Kicking – A Review and Interview by Chapter by Chapter

CbyC Review


whitespaceDead and Kicking by Lisa Emme was a read that had me chuckling pretty much throughout the whole book.  With a quirky main character and a gruff sexy homicide detective, and a world filled with supernatural beings to satisfy your craving, Dead and Kicking was a solid book 1 in The Harry Russo Diaries…


See the rest of the review and an interview on Chapter by Chapter.

marketing-promotion-300x300I read this article today and it had some great advice so I thought I would share it.  It’s part two of a series (part one was also very good, so I would suggest checking it out with the link provided at the beginning).

Fun Friday

My mother won’t want to hear this, on the other hand, I know she won’t be shocked either, but I drop the occasional F-bomb. I use them in my writing sometimes as well, when appropriate for the character.  This just sort of gives me a feeling of validation.  Plus I got a head start on Helen Mirren!

An Interview with….uh, well, with Me

Cartoon girl female reporter holding microphone


I would like to start a sort of regular feature where I interview a fellow indie author. The interviews will be posted in the S.I.A – Indie Author Interview section of my website.  Since I just came up with the idea now, I thought I would start with an author I know rather well….Me.

Hmmm….Why IS There an “R” is Mrs?

Found this article the other day and it provided an explanation to something I’ve always kind of wondered about.  Why is there an ‘R’ is something we pronounce as ‘Missus’?
