I'm an author. This means I sit down at my computer day after day, week after week until the book is done. Then I get to go back through it 2 or 3 times to proofread and edit it. Depending on the book, the author, time constraints, etc., it could take months to write, edit,…
My Months – PTSD Edition
I'm sitting at my computer writing this hopped-up on caffeine and carbs. Not healthy, you say? I don't care. They're the only reason I'm awake, not in a fitful slumber of runaway recriminations and flashbacks. I tried to get some sleep last night, but as soon as I started to drift off my mind reminded…
Is Good Really Good?
The battle between good and evil has been raging in one form or another for millennia. Or, if you believe the Bible, since Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. If you follow my blog, you'll know I'm a nerd for this stuff. I've talked about the War in Heaven in another blog (Dragons,…
Haze by Rebecca Crunden
Haze by Rebecca Crunden is a delicious and dark novel. I enjoyed reading it, and will likely reread it in the future. The story isn't a typical story, even for a dark novel. It was different, and I appreciated that. All too often we find books that are just recycled storylines with slight differences. Haze…
I’m Not That Fast!
If you're a book nerd or an author like me, you've seen them. Book reels. On Instagram, TikTok, or even Facebook. They're a great way to create interest in a book. With just a little playing around with different sources, websites, or apps, you can create a truly eye-catching book reel. I use Pixabay and…
Dress Codes and Double Standards
Apparently, I'm having an 'I'm technologically challenged' day today, so the pics I wanted aren't uploaded. Yet. I'll figure it out when my brain starts to function again. Stupid brain fog. So, the blog. I've seen this debate multiple times on both Instagram and Twitter, and frankly, I don't understand why this is even a…
Deadly Illusion by Kathy Lockheart
I adored this book. It was well written, I loved the storyline, (well, most of it), and where can I order a Damian of my own? Because hello... holy hotness. But be ready with an unopened box of tissues, because I promise you will need them all. You. Will. Ugly. Sob. (You will not cry.…
You Left Me Behind
Apparently, WordPress has made a change so pics and links cannot be added to blogs without having some weird grey bar show up in the blog in random places. What that's about, I don't know. So if anyone has an easy tech-for-dummies solution to this, please let me know in the comments. I'm beyond aggravated.…
Truth in Fiction
If you Google the definition of fiction, this is what you find: literature in the form of prose, especially short stories and novels, that describes imaginary events and people. Imaginary events and people. I would add, also potentially imaginary worlds, as in the case of paranormal, fantasy, or sci-fi. Fiction isn't real life. For many,…
Vlad Dracul: Vampire or… Dragon?
Halloween is just over 3 weeks away, so I thought I'd tackle a fitting topic. One which just so happens to align with my obsession with origins. (Yes, I know I'm a nerd. No need to tell me, and stop snickering, lol.) I've discussed (sort of) the history of vampires in another blog, found here:…
