Going to try this later on, but with peaches.

Goblin Castle

I woke up uber cranky today. For some reason, coffee wouldn’t do it for me. The goblins have been crazy since they woke up, doing crazy things, climbing things, calling me “Mom” and what have you. You’d think a morning of coffee and The Walking Dead would be a good foundation for a calm, collected woman but, alas, the goblins had their diabolical plans instead.

So, what to do when your calm is taken and thrust into the chasm of “pare...

Things we go through, do they prepare us for what may come?

I’m a constant thinker, I ponder, I delve deep into what happens to us as individuals, as people, as humans. I know I’m a deep thinker and that most may not have things cross their mind like I do, but I can’t help it: I’m curious. I wonder, I dream, I think. I’m not ordinary. I accept that.

Lately it’s been occurring to me that maybe that age old statement, everything happens for a reason, really is true in many ways. Not as a mystical saying, but more so that every life experience we have, e...

Free Photo Sites, fonts, and video

If you’re a writer, blogger, or otherwise, finding a FREE photo to use commercially and any ol’ way you please is very difficult. I’m gonna start this list so that others can benefit from it. I usually save the info in my email or I bookmark it. That way I can find them easily. Making this list will also help me get my own bootum organized. If a link quits working, or they change their policies and are no longer free, I’ll update this. If you notice something wrong that I haven’t gotten to, l...

I see you

David, David, David where are you David.

Don’t ask me where that came from. I’m also tapping out the tune for Peter and the Wolf as I search images to represent this guy. This tune. I loved listening to Peter and the Wolf as a child, but really don’t know why lately it’s been in my tapping routine. I tap the keys on my keyboard or my nails on the desk.

Also another random sidenote: did you know that DAVID is actually one of my favorite male names? Yuppers. This is why I’m not changing my character’s name. I did consider not using it...

Celebratory post

Since this is a big milestone for Mila, I thought I would brag on her here. I plan to post it on the forum I’m on too for Dobers, but here first. Why is this picture below such a big deal? Because she is STANDING by the vacuum as it’s running! Woohoo!!

[image error]

My apologies for the blur and weirdness, the vacuum was running and I was attempting to do the shot quickly. I didn’t even plan to take one, but I thought instead of just SAYING she was able to be around the vacuum, walk around it, and not si...

Dane – Alpha Lycaen – Verrick’s Pack

Since I was writing a scene with Dane the other day, I shared this image I used to inspire Dane for me. I’d been watching Into The Badlands when I came up with this character and Daniel Wu was most prominent. Here is the image that really spoke of Dane for me.

Dane runs with Verrick’s Pack. Verrick is the leader, but they are all alpha males. And it takes a supreme alpha mal...

What do you want?

I’ve been chatting with my editor this morning about short stories. And missing scenes, things I haven’t included in my Dark Moon Dynasty Universe world. I really would like to have more short stories and share missing scenes, but there is so much in my head that it’s hard to really work out. My editor put it best in her text to me this morning. It’s difficult when you have a vast world with a lot going on. It should be easy to find something because there is a lot there. But it’s not because...

Life & Death

There is life.

There is death.

Some survive, while others don’t.

There is no real mystical reason, but maybe there is. Who am I to say?

Life takes. Life gives.

One plant dies so another can grow in its place. You lose so you can grow. It’s nothing but a cycle. A renewal. A pattern.

It’s painful for us to lose someone or something because we are faced with our mortality. Forced to see life does not last. We realize then that we can suffer loss. There is no permanence in life. How else would we...
