The Blog is NOT Dead.

Despite rumors to the contrary (oh, wait, there weren’t any? Oh well, that’s embarrassing.)this blog is not dead. Life has taken over and it’s been difficult to keep up. But, a quick update!

Everything is moving along nicely with A CURSE OF ASH AND IRON. I’ve turned in two rounds of edits, and the manuscript is off to the copy editor for proofing. I imagine that at some point in the near future I’ll get work that I need to turn in my cover art survey, so we can start working on that.

Curiosity...

The big announcement–take two!! Vlog!

We’ve gotten the go ahead to let everyone know what’s going on with A CURSE OF ASH AND IRON, the book that is like a phoenix and has risen from the ashes.

Today is the day. September 2. The dayA Curse of Ash and Ironwas supposed to release from Strange Chemistry.

I look back and wonder how different my summer would have been if SC hadn’t folded. I would have been busy with blog tours and interviews and all kinds of other stuff.

I had a GREAT launch party idea in my head, and I had just started to make arrangements....

Word Crimes

Just because it’s been a bit since I’ve posted, I thought I’d plunk this down. You’ve probably already seen it, but watch it again anyway. I am such a word geek, a grammar nazi, that this song makes me squee with joy. I may actually play it for my older students in the Fall, (have to double check the lyrics, but I think it’s okay).

Enjoy!
