So this week’s topic is favorite books. I’ve already had a stern talk with myself about the importance of self-control since I’ve got a massive to-do list and if I don’t rein myself in with this list, ain’t nothin gettin done today. Now, these are in no particular order, because how could I possibly make […]
This week for our Random Wednesday blogging, the topic is “You Couldn’t Pay Me To…” which dovetails really nicely with this picture Corwin, my youngest son just drew for me. (Click to Embiggen.) I’m thinking this has the potential to be a fairly endless post, because there’s a fuck-ton of things you couldn’t pay me […]
This week, the Wednesday Random Bloggers welcome our latest member – the spectacular Gwendolyn Cease! As a lot of you might know, Jess Jarman and Jenny Trout and I have been recapping the BBC TV show, Merlin. What you might not know is I’m an Arthurian lit junkie from way back – pretty much since […]
Sooooooooooooooooo…10 random facts about me. Huh… Let’s see… 1.) Once I stopped wearing nail polish for 23 years because I had to work on a cadaver that was wearing the same color I had on. However, I’m back on the nail polish train, and it careens wildly out of control whenever Ulta has a sale. […]
When I suggested this topic, it sounded like a good idea. I was wrong, dear reader. I feel that a day in my life might bore you to tears. Let me elaborate. 5:40 AM – Alarm clock goes off, husband hits snooze. 5:50 AM – Alarm clock goes off, husband hits snooze.6:00 AM – Alarm […]

So I went on a writing retreat with Jenny Trout, Kris Norris, Kelsey St. James, Jess Jarman, Emily Love, Mia Watts and Anne (an awesome reader) and it was FABULOUS! I got lots of work done, laughed until my face hurt and played Cards Against Humanity and laughed my ass off because I’m a terrible […]
I’m home from vacation, and I’ll admit it. I really want to go back up north. I spent the week with Jen Armintrout, Jessica Jarman, Kris Norris, Mia Watts and our friend Emily. I won’t lie and tell you it was the peace and quiet because there wasn’t a lot of that going on with […]
A couple years ago, I had the great good luck of coming across a story in my inbox at my old day job. It was fantastic, however, it wasn’t what we published, so I made some suggestions about where she might want to send it, and I offered to take a look at whatever else […]
I can’t believe I’ve been home from the Authors After Dark conference for a week and this is the first time I’ve been able to blog. The day job sort of exploded upon my return, so now I’m trying to get time sensitive projects put to bed so I can get back to writing. But, […]
