Soundtrack Monday: Wondering Where the Lions Are
Just what do you play to get into the mood when you’re writing a were-wolverine? For me, it was Bruce Cockburn’s Wondering Where the Lions Are, which I played somewhat obsessively while writing Taken. Longtime Readers will remember Taken‘s working title was Weasel Boy, since Zach (the hero-of-sorts) travels with his very small family of …

When They’re Not Serving
I’ve got a survey out to my serial subscribers, asking if they want to go to Season Three of HOOD when Season Two ends. Season Three is the payoff, but from what I can tell, plenty of people are getting bored with Season Two. I don’t take it personally–serials, especially long-running ones, are difficult, and …

Deeper Levels
I just had to laugh. Dear gods, Astrology App, do you think I do anything else? I have to say, the notifications from this particular app have made me break down laughing on a regular basis. It’s been sorely needed merriment, indeed. Here’s to having a good weekend, my friends–and to giving as much access …

Monster Wish-Fulfillment Hooky
So Incorruptible is out, and I’m aching to get back into the swing of things after the usual release day nerves. You’d think after however-many books out, I’d be almost blasé about a release day. But that’s not what happens. I still get just as nervous-anxious-upset, each damn time. It’s like the speed of light, …

Soundtrack Monday: Out of My Mind
One of the things about Selene is that we never see inside Nikolai. We don’t see how similar to Selene he really was, as a paranormal trapped by Grigori. In his mind, he’s much better than Grigori ever could be, because he allows Selene a few choices. You become what you despise, you become the …

Time It Right
I’ve only twenty minutes before I have to shove the icepack back into the freezer and hop in the shower. I don’t care if my plantar fascia hurts, I have to run. I have been going mad with the enforced rest, and tomorrow is a release day. That’s right, tomorrow, Incorruptible is released to the …

Deepest Violet
I wouldn’t have morning glories in my yard (mostly because I spent too long with toddlers roaming around) but fortunately, some of my neighbors do, and I get to admire them. Especially when the color is so achingly vibrant. Sometimes the smallest beautiful thing can save an entire day, week, month, year. Never underestimate the …

Stubbornness and Experience
Just a short note today, since I am so close to the end of Damage I can almost taste a few days off. Usually I have a long doldrums in the center third to four-fifth of a book before lunging to the end; this particular story began gathering steam at the halfway point and is …

Only Moderate Pain
It’s a dark morning, a nice thick cloud layer shielding us. The rain has brought greening at the bottom of summer-yellowed grass and the trees are lifting their arms again, turgor pressure rising. Miss B is philosophical–her coat is wash and wear, and she’s a fan of chilly temperatures. Boxnoggin, however, is from the South, …
