And now I’m on Instagram

Hey folks, A long time ago, I made an Instagram account. Two days ago, I made my first post. Yesterday I made my second. Today, my third. Tomorrow, I won’t post. But on MONDAY, I’ll make my fourth. Basically, I’m actually using Instagram now. I think I’ve decided to divvy up my social media as … Continue reading "And now I’m on Instagram"

What’s Up

Hello! Work has kept me a bit quiet of late, but I suppose we all know how that goes. But the ARC copies of Happily are pretty much all out now, with only a few exceptions. Yay! Always nice to be able to check that box. And on that note, a great big ‘Thank you!’ to … Continue reading "What’s Up"

ARCs are going out!

Hey everyone! I’m just surfacing for some air. Then I’m going back under. But really, that is kind of how it feels. Happily is finally through the editing process (which has kept me very busy) and is ready to go out to early readers. So, in other words, guess what I’ll be doing for the next … Continue reading "ARCs are going out!"

Almost there…. (and cover release 2.0)

Hey friends! That’s a GIF of me, in my Editing X-Wing, with my sights set on the ARC release date for Happily. We’re almost there. Hopefully everything goes smoothly and I don’t get shot down my Darth Vader or anything (spoiler alert!). The release date for the ARC is still the same, as is the official … Continue reading "Almost there…. (and cover release 2.0)"

Dementors, Cough Drops, and a Book Update

  My nose and throat have been very dry at night lately, so I’ve been sneaking into the kids room to huff air straight from their humidifier in the middle of the night. I wear a dark, oversized bathrobe, and the kids’ humidifier looks like a little frog. Basically, it looks like a dementor delivering … Continue reading "Dementors, Cough Drops, and a Book Update"

Perspectives on Fantasy and Horror

Happy 2018, one and all! For those who are curious, we celebrated the new year by putting the kids to bed and then playing a couple board games. We like to party pretty hard, obviously. The other night we had an incident in our home, which made me consider what the differences are between horror … Continue reading "Perspectives on Fantasy and Horror"

Color Photos with Explanations

Okay, as promised, here are the color versions of those same pictures from yesterday’s post, along with an explanation for why I chose them. These pictures each reveal something about me, but taken altogether, they reveal that my photography skills are not fully developed. I chose a picture of our Christmas tree because I love … Continue reading "Color Photos with Explanations"

Seven Day Black & White Photo Challenge – Modified

Yesterday, the wonderful Sophie Li challenged me to do the Seven Day Black & White Photo Challenge, and I accepted… sort of. Here are the rules, as posted by Sophie (who did not create the challenge, it should be noted. I’m not hunting down where it originated, though): “Seven days. Seven black and white photos of … Continue reading "Seven Day Black & White Photo Challenge – Modified"
