Jody Wallace DREAMWALKERS Turns the Tables on Veronica

Veronica: I invited Jody to be my guest today since her DREAMWALKERS series is currently on sale. She turned the tables and wanted me to be the subject of the interview, so here goes!

Jody: The premise of the Dreamwalkers series is that certain human brains are so vivid that their nightmares can come to life and eat people. The heroes and heroines (so far) are the folks who fight these monsters and hide their existence from the rest of the world. Oftentimes these nightmares take the shape of...

6 Reasons to Love a Cyborg from Cara Bristol

Veronica: I’m very pleased to have Cara Bristol as my guest today, celebrating the eagerly anticipated release of her newest book MATED WITH A CYBORG, the second book in this terrific series. Take it away, Cara!

CB: One of the things I’ve been asked about Cy-Ops Sci-fi Romance series is why I chose to write about cyborgs. Why not aliens? Why not androids? Here are six reasons:

Cyborgs are human—modified and enhanced—but human. If you find it hard to fall for a six-eyed, blue-skinned tentacle...

A Fond Look Back at Andre Norton’s Witch World

The last few weeks have been a bit up and down for me and so I wanted to lose myself in some other author’s well realized, complex world. I decided Andre Norton’s Witch World was just the thing I needed. I’ve mentioned before that Year of the Unicorn is my absolute favorite novel in the series and I’ve reread that many a time. I haven’t revisited the other books in decades so I dug ALL of them out of the bookcase and sat down to start at the beginning, with Simon Tregarth’s journey in Witch W...

Red Panda Dragon Christmas

Had a really nice Christmas with my family, hosted at my younger daughter’s. Much enjoyment was had by all…well, maybe not her two cats, Carrot and Orly, who took a lonnggggg time to warm up to the new people under their roof. Never mind they’ve seen us all before! They used to live with me and I fed them twice a day but alas, cat memories are short (in this case anyway). This is Carrot, in his kitchen lair, supervising my son-in-law while he cooked dinner for all of us.

If what I received ha...

Dogs of the Christmas Village

Since I did a post last week with our cat ornaments and holiday figurines, I figured I should give the dogs equal time this week. We’re pretty much a cat family – nothing against dogs! We just never adopted any. I only had two dogs as a child – Teddy, who loved to chase cars, so we won’t say any more about him – and Sara, who was wonderful but when we moved from upstate NY to Alabama we had to leave her behind. We gave her to the son of one of our neighbors (I had a HUGE crush on him!) and fr...
