Danger! Danger! Preorder Ahead!
That’s right, folks… I’m back and ready to do some more damage! Thankfully my publisher tolerates me more than he should, which means brand new words for all you lovely humans (or whatever you happen to be lurking out there in the ether…I’m not picky.). #3 in the Shadow Council Archives series is almost here! … Continue reading Danger!

The Return of #FoodPorn: Friday Night Dinner!
So we all know that dinner is hard work, particularly when you’ve been ultra-busy, you’ve gotten home late, and you’re feeding a family of five. It can get hectic, ’cause everybody is HANGRY and they don’t want to wait. The first option is to go to boxed foods — quick to prepare, marginally decent taste, … Continue reading The Return of #FoodPorn: Friday Night Dinner!

Dear People Without Kids…
You know, it truly amazes me the things I hear while out in the wild. Humanity never ceases to astound me with its unintentional ignorance, cluelessness, and constant comic relief. In the wake of another holiday season gone, I find myself reflecting on the utter insanity I’ve witnessed in the last ten or so days. … Continue reading Dear People Without Kids…

#Romance Writers are Not Beneath You
Of all the things I have in mind to write about now that I’m reviving the blog, this one got shoved to the forefront. A comment was made in a writing group on Facebook the week before last that nearly set my hair on fire. Someone asked a question about why it takes so long … Continue reading #Romance Writers are Not Beneath You

In Memoriam
Last week, the world lost a truly special soul. I had the good fortune to have Brenda in my life for fourteen years. My only regret is that we didn’t become such good friends sooner than we did. She had the biggest heart, and I am so very honored to be able to call her … Continue reading In Memoriam

Rethinking the Thinking
So I tried to mothball this thing awhile back and if we’re perfectly honest, it didn’t work. I have too many thinks and logging into the website is too exhaustive a process. That means I’m just going to start talking here again. I know…you missed me and you’re thrilled. Right? Advertisements

The End of an Era
Hey, y’all… So you know how sometimes people hit a wall? I’ve done that. For the last six years, I’ve been moonlighting as two different people, not that any of you weren’t already aware of that. The problem with that, however, is that I’m splitting my attention too many different ways, and it’s not healthy, […]

In the Shadow of Death: A #HoldOntoTheLight Post
Last year, I told a very painful story, one I wish for the whole world to read, then read again. It’s hard, so please forgive me if this post carries all the tact and diplomacy of a sledgehammer through a plate-glass window. I’m still hurt, still angry. Still seeking vengeance. Still praying that by shoving […]
