National Author’s Day: November 1, 2024

Happy National Author’s Day to all my fellow writers out there. I hope you celebrate by being productive and creative in the best way you know how. Today, I am working on my new WIP Terra Firma. Terra Firma is a found family/adoptive father-daughter story. It’s very different from my other stories, but it’s coming along nicely and I am proud of it. What are you working on?

Happy Halloween! Let’s Celebrate with my Favorite Poe Story

I hope it’s a productive and creative one. For Halloween, I would like to share my favorite Edgar Allan Poe story, The Black Cat. It’s lush, descriptive, and chilling. Please enjoy this classic tale in its entirety below.

The Black Cat by Edgar Allan Poe

FOR the most wild, yet most homely narrative which I am about to pen, I neither expect nor solicit belief. Mad indeed would I be to expect it, in a case where my very senses reject their own evidence. Yet, mad am I not — and very surely d...

Barnes and Noble Book Signing a Great Success

The book signing today at Barnes and Noble in Spanish Fort, AL was a wonderful day for all involved. Brandi Clark (aka Jessahme Wren) met writers and readers and signed books for close to three hours Sunday. She was also asked back at the beginning of the year.

Exclusive: Forged By Fire Cover Reveal and Blurb

The cover for my new novel Forged by Fire is now complete…and I would like to share it with all of you! . The blurb for the back:

“Galactic Civil War. A war-torn moon and a conflict that has spread throughout the galaxy. Two factions, the Black Tide and the First Front, battle for what’s left of their home world.

Out of the ashes comes two warriors. Neel was destined to fight; carnage is his inheritance, mayhem his birthright. Freya has no such pedigree. Although dedicated, she was abandon...

St. Lake City, Utah

Salt Lake City, Utah

Zoe stripped a long, taut line of packing tape along the seam of a cardboard box, smoothing out the creases just so.  She stood, cracking her back, and took a look around her near-empty apartment.

Most of her furniture was gone, en route to Salt Lake City.  The couch remained, her bed, and a few of her most precious items that she preferred to pack herself.  The movers were coming back tomorrow.  Charlie was coming over to help put away the last of her memories.
