LKF #9 - Dragons?
Little Known Fact #9 - Dragons?
The below excerpt is partially based on a real conversation. When I was working at Wally World, I had a conversation with a co-worker about the managers doing something altruistic for the overnight stockers... I think it was something like letting us go home early with pay. I asked my co-worker if there were unicorns in his land of make-believe, referring to the

LKF #8 - Siblings and Sequels
Little Known Fact #8 - Siblings and SequelsEris has three siblings in ERIS (Eternal Truths, Book 1). I already mentioned in LKF #4 that the next Eternal Truths book would not be about Kaylie, Eris's younger sister. I also mentioned in that post, as an aside, that Kaylie would get a book of her own.

LKF #7 - Geek At Heart
Little Known Fact #7 - Geek At Heart
I am a geek at heart. I love playing video games like Age of Empires, Soul Reaver, and Devil May Cry. I have an extensive comic book collection. I used to be a die hard X-Men fan until Marvel married Storm (Ororo Monroe) off to Black Panther (still pisses me off just thinking about it). Nowadays, I collect more manga than comics. I also watch a ton of anime,

LKF #6 - Long Book
Little Known Fact #6 - Long BookAt 160,000 words (504 pages), ERIS (Eternal Truths, Book 1) is not a short book by any stretch of the imagination. I did not originally set out to make it that long. It just happened.
When I finished writing, I tried to find a way to cut the book back. I couldn't find any one scene that was expendable. I would either be cutting the romance or the plot. Either way,

Little Known Fact #5 - Flash Cameo
The below excerpt is the appearance of Stephanie Burke (also known as Flash) in ERIS (Eternal Truths, Book 1). Of course, her last name isn't listed, but rest assured that is her.

Very simple. The Eternal Truths are those principles that exist across every race, religion, and world:
- Chaos
- Order
- Creation
- Destruction
ERIS (Eternal Truths, Book 1) is all about time, also known as order. While some may think the second book in

LKF #3 - The Start
Little Known Fact #3 - The StartOne question I always get asked is how I come up with my plot ideas. Each book has a different story. For ERIS (Eternal Truths, Book 1), I wanted to see what would happen when a black heroine is tossed back in time.
I love Time Travel Romance. Seeing the hero have to deal with, and actually acknowledge, that the heroine is (A) from the future, (B) not a witch, and

One Day at Nationals (NYC Trip Recap)
Okay before anything else distracts me, I need to get this written.
RWA (Romance Writers of America) held their annual conference, called Nationals, in NYC this past 28 June - 01 July 2011 at the Marriott Marquis in Times Square.
