NaNo Wrap-Up
Today is the last day of November and for those participating in NaNoWriMo, it’s the last day to validate their 50K. It’s also time for a NaNo Wrap-Up.
I set out on November 1st to write 90K in a complete rewrite of Amaskan’s War. If you know anything about me, you know I’m both determined and ruthless in my focus, yet November, like most of 2015, didn’t go as expected.

I won’t get into the historical elements of Thanksgiving, but instead would encourage everyone to remember that...

#1 New Release!
There is nothing happier for an author than to see their hard work pay off with good rankings. Joy to the Worlds snuck out the door a bit early, and ended up as an Amazon #1 New Release!
It hit a few Top 100 charts as well, which makes it a happy day!
Yep. I’m doing a Snoopy dance all across the living room, much to the cats’ confusion.

Flashback Friday: Dear America
Dear America,
You’ve probably seen it on social media as it’s making the rounds, but in the early days of World War II, we turned away Jewish refugees seeking asylum in the United States. They were fleeing Hitler and for good reason. In fact, one of those refugee visas we denied was that of Anne Frank.Flashback Friday: Dear America
I remember reading The Diary of a Young Girl in middle school. I remember being baffled at the idea that anyone would want...
