Picking Up a WIP After Life Got in the Way

So, the other day I announced the title of Book Two in my post called Life in Another ’Cosm: Jinny from the Blog. While I am not accidentally writing this novel as I did with Life in the ’Cosm, I did accidentally start this story. You see, I had no idea there’d be a second book, let alone a […]

So long, Chromebook. Hello, MacBook Pro!

As I type this, I feel a little misty. I loved my Chromebook. It helped me finish Life in the ‘Cosm, got me half-way through the second book, and even some of the way into my third book. I used it to write four short stories this year, one of which has so far made it […]

The Reluctant Barbarian: Brilliantly Funny

So, full disclosure: I received an e-ARC of this book from my publisher, in hopes I might give words of praise for it. Even before I met John Haas, and The Reluctant Barbarian had only been pitched to Renaissance at CanCon 2016, this book had me at the title. That would have been enough to intrigue […]

Soul’s Blood: A Space Opera with a Triad of Awesomeness

I only met Stephen Graham King online, when he asked to write for the Spoonie Authors Network. It took about five minutes for me to like him, and I’m probably exaggerating by four minutes. I’d heard author ’Nathan Bourgoine rave about Stephen’s space operas, so I decided to read Soul’s Blood, the first of his Maverick Heart Cycle […]

Life in Another ’Cosm: Jinny from the Blog

Spoiler Alert: Don’t read this post until you’ve read Life in the ’Cosm!  Jinny’s parents are so in love, it’s really gross. At least her warrior grandpops are epic. Malley High is ugh, Jayke is ughier, but Selma’s pretty okay for someone donned in 50 shades of black. To cope, Jinny spends her free time blogging […]

Canadian Writers: Cait Gordon—Interview by Kirsten McNeill

  I was interviewed by the lovely author Kirsten McNeill for her series on Canadian Writers. You can read it on her website, The Art is Ours. Thanks, Kirsten. I had fun! /cg Cait Gordon is the author of Life in the ’Cosm, a comedic space opera where boy meets girl, but girl doesn’t notice boy because she’s […]

I’m cishet and I write queer characters, but not without help.

Yeah, so I’m cisgender, which means that a doctor looked at my new-born bits and said, “It’s a girl,” and when I grew up I said, “Good guess, Doc.” I’m also heterosexual, which means I am romantically and sexually attracted to men. Right, so we got those boring details about me out of the way. […]

Reader Review Trailer for Life in the ’Cosm!

Tremontaine: binge-worthy and full of chocolate!

Truth be told, I thought perhaps there was something wrong with author Caroline Fréchette. They kept enthusiastically going on and on and on about some book called Tremontaine, insisting that we all read it. Finally, not wanted to incur Caro’s eyebrows of wrath, I bought the eBook version. And now, after reading it, I can say […]

What the hay? I’ll write about the thirteenth Doctor Who, too.

Personally, I prefer to be called a Whooligan instead of a Whovian. If you knew me, you’d feel that made more sense. Anyway, while I’m a bit behind on catching up with my twelfth Doctor episodes, I did see the regeneration from twelve to thirteen. My reaction on Facebook was something like: The new Doctor […]
