What’s hotter than sexy accents, BDSM, and a bit of rope? Not much. I’m happy to report that The Professor’s Student, the third book in my and Jess Jarman’s Bound series is available now! But before we get to the blurb and cover art and excerpt and stuff, I’d like you to meet my inspiration for […]
It’s time for another favorite things post. And this month? Beauty products! Okay, I admit, I’m constantly looking for the Holy Grail of mascara and hair conditioner. It’s an unending battle. Oh, and also the perfect scent. But I’ll share a few of my favorites with you. Also, I apologize for all the wonky spacing […]
What the hell was I doing? Standing outside the blue double doors, I double checked the address scrawled on the back of an old, Victorian style calling card. It was yellowed with age, but the creepy disembodied hand holding a bouquet of brightly colored roses was still visible. On the back of the card, someone […]
There’s that old writers’ adage: write what you know. I have mixed feelings about this advice. It’s true, I set a lot of stories in Michigan, because I know the area fairly well, and it means that I’ll be less likely to screw up certain things. But, I’ve also set stories in the UK. I […]
This should be interesting. I can’t wait to see what people who aren’t me spend too much time doing. In the meanwhile, I’ll post my list. And be sure to share some of the things you spend too much time doing, too. Playing around on social media sites. It’s rarely ever hopping from site to […]
So…this is a continuation of the last flash fiction, and it’s inspired by the Death Cab for Cutie song, I Will Possess Your Heart. “Show time,” I whispered. Harper stiffened slightly in my arms and shifted her grip on the wooden stake in her hand. I hated to let her go, I like having […]
I can’t believe this is the last Merlin Club post. Seriously. How did that even happen!? The two-part series finale opens with Morgana testing her Magic Hoovering Slug on some poor, but powerful, unsuspecting druid dude. Ones she proves that the man’s magic can be sucked clean out of him, she has someone sneak the Magic […]
It’s time for another Five Words or Less post. This month, we’re talking our blogs, our fiction, and our creative process. My Blog – haven’t missed post since 1/14 My Fiction – quirky characters, emotional, natural dialogue (I hope) My Creative Process – shower faery, trust the story I’m excited to read the other […]
So, this week, the assignment was to write a thank you note to something that makes our life better. My choice, as you will see, was pretty obvious. Dear Adderall, Let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, I was super distracted all the time, but I managed okay. I parented some great […]
Elliot glowered at me, but I ignored him as best I could. It wasn’t easy since we were currently facing each other in the middle of a moonlit path and staring romantically into each other’s eyes.
