The Realm Reappears!
The Realm: the Awakening Begins will always be SUPER special to me, like a first born child. It was my first book, my first novel, and something I poured into for eight years before birthing. Eight years?! Yes, eight years of research and growing in my writing skills. I wanted a tale as entertaining as […]

Why Would an Author Start a YouTube Channel?
Why would an author start a YouTube channel?? To read you her book, of course! When I was writing Space, Time & the Shopkeeper, I would sometimes read portions to my friends and family. They loved hearing me read it, and I loved reading it to them. So I got to thinking (a Divine inspiration?), […]

Inspiration for Space, Time & the Shopkeeper
I was deep in the throes of my PhD when inspiration struck. It had nothing to do with my PhD, except maybe offering an opportunity to escape scholarly thinking. I woke up one morning, shuffled into the bathroom, glanced at myself in the mirror…and did a double take. At first glance, it had looked like […]

What’s in a Name?
You may have noticed some changes around here! You may be wondering why some of the books on the books page have KL Glanville as my author name, and some are beginning to show K. Ross. Well…soon they should all show K. Ross! There have been a lot of changes in the last few years […]

Where Has Time Flown?!
It’s been over a year since my last post! Many apologies. My life has been one long transition the past few years. I married my favorite human, moved five houses in two years, started an organization…and the list goes on. But I’ve still been writing…here and there. I THINK I’m staying put for a while…and […]

Changes…and the New!
If you look closely at the dates of previous posts, you’ll notice…it’s been a while! So…what’s been going on? Well, I finished my PhD (Whew! and Finally!!), helped someone edit their book, moved part way across the country (absolutely LOVING Colorado!), have an amazing boyfriend, migrated my website and blog (2x) to a new host […]

Space, Time & Crying?
I really get into my characters—at least the main characters. When I took my first acting class years ago, I was surprised to find that novel writing has a lot in common with acting. You have to get into your character’s backstory (history), figure out what makes them tick, what motivates them, what’s wounded them, […]

How to Break Out Beyond Your Comfort Zone
I had a friend visiting from out of town who had plans to go flyboarding. Flyboarding: The act of strapping your feet into boots that are attached to a board that has water jets underneath…that has the capability to send you flying into the air, ostensibly, to eventually do tricks and have fun…to fly. For […]

Pursuing Dreams and Freaking Out
I have never been accused of dreaming small. In fact I’d have to have you sign an NDA (non-disclosure agreement) if I told you all my dreams…. But how do we actually get there…from dreams to reality? Why do they remain ‘dreams’ for SO long, maybe even forever? I’ll tell you why, it’s flippin’ scary […]
