A Tale of Two Series: How Readers Connect… Or Not
If you’ve been following me for a while, you know I have authored and continue to work on two series. I started Our Cyber World over a year ago. Four titles into it, an idea for a very different series emerged, and Tracking Jane was born. As I watch my two series develop and elicit […]

The Villain Inside the Protagonist
How do you feel about a story with yet another snarling, darker than evil villains? Or what about stories with villains showing a little good, just enough for us to feel sorry for them for about five seconds, going against protagonists whose flaws make us cringe for another five seconds before we go back to […]

Why I write, my [revised] answer
Why do I write? Or more pressing, perhaps, why must I write. A recent blog post by Jeff Goins caused me to revisit this question. If you read Jeff’s post, you’ll see how he answered this question. While I like what he said, I had to mull it over and put it in my own […]

Review: Pixie Tamer – Megan Haskell’s Invitation to a New World
If you’ve been following me for a while, you know I don’t talk much about fantasy. I don’t read it much, and I certainly don’t (can’t!) write it. My entire fantasy literature experience sums up in two titles: Lord of the Rings by Tolkien and Fire and Ice by GRR Martin. In reading Megan Haskell‘s […]

An Author’s Musings Turned Into Sayings

Other times I share them as standalone thoughts and quotes on social media, sometimes tagged as a #foodforthought #quote. After collecting these for a while, I thought I’d share some of my favorites […]
