I began writing fiction in 2000 when I decided that H.P. Lovecraft's character Herbert West needed a life story. The result was a series of four books, all available as ebooks and in print.
She Who Comes Forth is a sequel to the series. Tales from the Annexe is a collection of short stories. Both books are available in both print and ebook form. Four of the stories in the collection were originally published as separate ebooks, which are no longer available.
When I'm not writing, I am wrestling with plants on a 50 x 120 foot patch of ground in Victoria, British Columbia.

Tulips in February?

I don’t think I have ever had tulips in full bloom in February (which is when the featured image photo and the one below were taken).

Chateau Clare by C. Litka
"This book was what I needed these days, though it’s not an easy one to describe. It struck me somehow as both futuristic and steampunkish in a cozy fantasy kind of way.
