Once upon a time, I finished every book I started. Then, I realized that my time is more precious than that. And once I drop an author mid-book, with very few exceptions, I don’t usually pick them back up again. But here are some ways to lose me as a reader of romance. I’m focusing specifically on […]
I feel like the “why” of this title can best be summed up by potential chapter headings comprised of things I’ve said in text messages. 1.) If I don’t answer for a bit, it’s because I’m driving home from the motherfucking store. 2.) I’d run away and join the circus, but I have no marketable circus […]
I think we all have things we avoid in life–at least, as much as we’re able. Here are a few of mine. 10.) Clowns. (I feel like this is pretty self-explanatory. They’re creepy AF.) 9.) Wet paper. (I don’t know why, but it makes me gag.) 8.) Large warehouse stores like Home Depot, Best […]
I can’t believe it’s the end of February. Though, I probably said that at the end of last month, too. Sigh. Okay, so last month, I said that I wanted to: Continue with whatever’s next on the Organized Home Challenge (Yep.) Finish revising and expanding Mist and Stone. (Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.)

This is not normal. This is what it looks like today. Check out the other bloggers’ posts and see what winter is like […]
It’s time for another Top 10 List! Okay, so like most people, the best way to hook me as a reader is by writing a good book. And when I say a good book, I mean the premise and the actual writing, too–some books are strictly a one or the other kind of thing. I […]
Suggestion: If you’re reading this post and are stressed out by current events, I suggest skipping to the last paragraph where there’s a link to something just weird enough to be distracting and possibly amusing. So, this post…I’ve been thinking about it for a while, and I’ve been having trouble narrowing my focus. Look…I have a […]
Musical Musings is a new feature this year where we’ll blog about some of our favorites and not-so-favorites. This month, the topics are: Song that Makes Me Want to Dance, Song that I Love to Sing Along With, and Favorite Soundtrack. Song that Makes Me Want to Dance – this one is super easy. Rusted Root’s […]
Prompt: S/he showed up at his/her door, soaking wet, bruised and covered in glitter. Alex stood in line of the grocery store clutching the last bouquet of slightly wilted roses they had and red plastic shopping basket filled to the brim with all of Izzy’s favorites. He set the flowers and everything else on the […]
