A Is For Antisocial

Yeah… ummm… okay, I’ve been a bit antisocial lately. But seriously, it’s all me and not you. Let’s take a trip down zombie—I mean, memory lane… Some of you may remember my rants about autoimmune diseases—and my nickname, Zombie Girl, because of one of them. If not you can read about it in Confessions of […]

Makeover Mayhem

It’s been a while since I posted anything about hair and makeup. Not that I haven’t been inspired or had anything to chat about, I’ve just been busy with other things. Then this happened… *cue ominous music* I give you Makeover Mayhem! Long story short, the Breadwinner received a promotion at work—he’s big time management […]

NIBB 2017 or I’m not Rae Matthews…

  Well, I’m back from the North Iowa Book Bash and rested. Okay, not fully recharged yet, that’s going to take at least a week. If you’ve ever attended the immense party, Micki, Rachel, and Lori—with a ‘little’ help from their volunteers—put on, you understand where I’m coming from. Where to start… I wanna fill […]

It All Started With A New Refrigerator…

Where the hell have you been? Are you alive? Are you okay? What happened? You disappeared! Thank you for all the phone calls, texts, messages on social media, and emails. I didn’t realize anyone would even notice my little hiatus, let alone be concerned. We decided to take advantage of the Black Friday sales and […]

Refilling The Creative Well

A lot of writers and other creatives talk about their muse. They can only create when the muse calls. The muse is where they get their ideas, it controls their process and inspiration. If this is your bag and it works, bully for you. Personally, I have issues with relying on a muse to get […]

News, Updates, & Rambling

Wow, another event down for 2016! Read Between The Vines was a blast and I want to thank the Woodward Public Library Foundation for inviting me to participate. Snus Hill Winery was an unusual, yet perfect venue. A very relaxed atmosphere that allowed me to chat with both readers and other writers. There is nothing […]

With the upcoming release of Shadow Play, it was decided a few changes needed to be made. The paperbacks are now mass market, instead of trade sized, hence the […]

Updates & Stuff

Wow, it’s summer already! Where did spring go? This month I was invited back to ERICON and gladly accepted, we all know I have a soft spot for libraries. Last year was good, but this year Matt and the staff of the Ericson Library out did themselves and it will only get better each year. […]

Wizard World Des Moines 2016

I’m still half-asleep as I write this, a long weekend at Wizard World combined with a 6:45 am dental appointment leaves little room for sleep. Bear with me as I chug coffee and attempt to tell the tale of Wizard World 2016. So many exciting things happened, but I’ll hit the highlights. We had so […]
