Movin' On

Reblogged from melinda clayton: Last night, I posted a blog on Goodreads letting any interested parties know that a week ago Monday, I asked my publisher to terminate contracts on all of my books. I think there's a vein running through my family, a need to be in charge of our own destinies. Maybe it […]

Food for thought… from Rachel

Not every book is good. Not every story you’re going to read is going to be good. But everyone has a story worth telling. I personally believe that – that every person has a story. Everyone goes through different things, everyone has their own issues to handle, and everyone reacts to things differently. I always […]

Excerpt from RECYCLED III

Thought I’d just do a brief post today, with another teaser from RECYCLED: Before the sun rose, they had reached the safe house in Elmhurst.

Flooding

No, the bookstore didn’t flood – but our house did! That’s why we closed early yesterday and will be opening late today: at noon. We have a creek in our front yard. We were told that it was a stormwater creek, that MSD had an easement to maintain it. Not that we’ve ever seen them […]
