Can You Say Trust Issues?
Maybe it’s just me, but I wonder if other authors experience this conundrum.
When experiencing the labor pains of getting a new story sorted before I can even begin writing, I do a few things. I write characters sketches, take a lot of random notes, and write about the setting, or anything else that is rolling around in my head. Sometimes I let that all marinate for days/weeks/months, and other times I just start writing.
For those moments I need to give the flavors time to soak in, I often fin...

Writing Because of Tears
The last time I absolutely had to write or else my brain would explode was in June. I’d watched something and I truly needed to write about it in order to process it. Let me put it this way, someone died in a horrific way. I watched this show on a Sunday night, and then all day Monday, I took my mom to many doctor appointments. We ended up at the hospital for her final appointment. We’d taken the shuttle over and had some time to kill, and she was excited to look around the gift shop.
See, her...

My Fiction Nook: Review of Spark
My Fiction Nook: ARC Review: Spark by Posy Roberts.
“The use of the flashbacks, especially considering how well they fit into the overall flow, is what made this book special. They give a full picture of the history, with a ton of sweet moments and even a bit of heartache and angst, but explain the connection between the men. This allowed me to really feel as if I knew them, and made me cheer for them to find their way to a life together, despite the many obstacles they have to face.”

Bi Pride
Charley Descoteaux allowed me to play on her blog. Play might not be the best word considering I wrote about dispelling myths that are readily spread about bisexuals.
Come on and read what happened after I came out as bi to my husband after we’d been married for fifteen years. We both learned a lot in the last several years.

Everyday Heros
I enjoy writing stories about ordinary people living through real life trials. I may never write about people narrowly escaping exploding buildings or being held captive in a creepy crawl space. I do write about how people survive those scary things that we all have the possibility of facing ourselves: disease, death, bullying, not being accepted. I enjoy watching how people live and shine through those moments.
Since I was a child, I have been dealing with chronic illness. I used to be rushed...

Blog Tour Stop – P.D. Singer – Trilogy?
The decision to write a trilogy had less to do with me, and more to do with what North Star demanded. Sparkeven needed to be told in a specific way. Come read all about it.
