Thanátou and Mörderin (The Blood Witch Saga) out now!
So, November was an interesting month. I chose to focus on The Blood Witch for NaNoWrMo, dedicated my morning makeup routine time to writing, and spent at least four hours every Saturday and Sunday writing. On November 29th, I hit 50K and breathed a sigh of relief. I’m really fond of a lot of what
My weekends are normally pretty domestic. If I can manage to stay in my pajamas the whole weekend, I count it a victory. Some of that is due to the agoraphobia, some of it is just introversion and lack of desire to be among people. Today, I am venturing off toward Fisherman’s Wharf in San
The last three or four nights, I’ve had really segmented sleep that totals to less than five hours per night, most of it in one to one and a half hour increments. I’ve also needed to be in the office and at all day meetings this week, plus had social engagements with coworkers from out
I know it’s cliche to say something about how fast the year is moving, but seriously, how is it June? Granted I lost a few weeks there with dealing with my step-father’s death and the chaos that surrounds an unexpected end, but still! For me, June is a crazy busy month. The kind that makes

I asked myself this morning what it was I wanted to do today. Aside from the obvious answer (writing), I heard myself say “let’s give away some books!” I thought that was an amazing idea! So, let’s do that! Contest opens tomorrow, runs through November 15th. Prize package will include, at minimum, one copy each
I’ve had chronic pain for years (bad knee, bad lower back, carpal tunnel and other hand/arm issues, etc) and some of them are even nerve pain related. For two weeks now I’ve been dealing with a pinched nerve in my neck. If you have never endured this kind of pain, count yourself lucky. I’ve always
Evan Chayton is a Shifter, though he keeps that fact very well guarded. As he first appears in the beginning of In Gathering Shade, only a small group of people know his secret. He is also a military man who is assigned to Adam Darvin’s secretive organization. Raven chooses him to be her handler when Adam
There is a stillness in the woods. It isn’t something you can find in the hustle-bustle of a city. It is something unique to the woods. Step off the paved road and onto a carpet of grass, fallen leaves, pine needles, step between the trees. You don’t have to go far to feel it. Just
I have a form of agoraphobia. I’ve stopped saying “mild agoraphobia” because then it gets dismissed as not a problem and then people don’t understand why I have days like today. Today, I woke up feeling anxious. My heart was beating fast, and when I thought about leaving the house, the beat picked up momentum.
