Misunderstood

So, how was your weekend?
The weather could've been better around here, but we still got a chance to go for our daily walks, which is always cool.
Sigh.
Some days are better than others. And although I had an awesome weekend with hubby, daughter and kitty--hubby actually had the whole weekend off this time, yay--the weekend ended on a bit of a sour note. Sometimes, speaking up just doesn't pay off...
Anyway. I don't want to go into it. I actually want to concentrate on the fact that it's a new w...

DEMON BOUND by Caitlin Kittredge

Thirteen years ago, Jack Winter lay dying in a graveyard. Jack called upon a demon and traded his soul for his life… and now the demon is back to collect its due. But Jack has finally found something to live for. Her name is Pete Caldecott, and because of her, Jack's not going to Hell without a fight. Pete doesn't know about Jack's bargain, but she does know that something bigger and far more dangerous than Jack's demon is growing in the Black. Old gods are stirring and spirits are...

Last day of the week!

This week has become a blur of words, trouble, and constant thinking about my current WIP. Yikes! It's totally consuming my mind. Which is actually a great thing. :)
I love getting so wrapped up in a story that the characters constantly whisper inside my head, and new scenes, conversations, as well as twists keep popping into my brain when I least expect it.
Yesterday, while I was walking with MCR plugged into my ears, the end of the book played out inside my head. Awesome! 
Actually, the...

Didn't mean to stay away for so long...

But I've been super busy... writing!
Yeah, Sierra Fox #2 is really pouring out of me at the moment. It's such an awesome feeling, so I hope it continues. The story's coming very quickly, everything's fitting in together very nicely, and a few surprising things are popping up too. I mean, I've had the basic outline for this book written down for a while now, but when I actually sit down and write, it's a whole different story. lol.

It's like a movie's constantly running through my head and I...

Hello!

Wow, I didn't realise I hadn't popped in here for days. But things have been super busy this week.
Remember how I mentioned we were going to see Oh, and if you go to watch it, make sure you stay until the very end. I mean, don't move until the credits are done, because...

Happy August!

Yikes. Can you believe it's the eighth month already? The year sure is going fast. As they always do.
Well, we had a great weekend. We went on some cool walks, had some lovely meals, hung out together, and caught up on our favourite shows. :) Which is always a cool thing. Now, if we could only do the same for BURN NOTICE! :/ I love that show, but we're a season behind.
Anyway. Since it's not only a new week, but also a new month... I've decided to start writing a new novel. It's the second...

THREE DAYS TO DEAD by Kelly Meding

They'll never see her coming. . . .
When Evangeline Stone wakes up naked and bruised on a cold slab at the morgue—in a stranger's body, with no memory of who she is and how she got there—her troubles are only just beginning. Before that night she and the two other members of her Triad were the city's star bounty hunters, mercilessly cleansing the city of the murderous creatures living in the shadows, from vampires to shape-shifters to trolls. Then something terrible happened that not only...

It's still cold...

...but now that the sun's back, it makes everything better. :)
Besides, as my daughter reminded me this morning, we only have one more month of winter left. Yay. Something to be excited about. Soon, the days will start to get longer, and the chill in the air will only make an appearance early in the morning and at night. Yeah, something to look forward to.
Anyway. Yesterday, I finished the second round (which also happened to be the errata stage) of edits for IRIS . Sure, I ended up finding...
