It’s been a while since I’ve posted on here, so I wanted to give you all an update on what’s new with me. In April, I met with my endocrinologist and we made some changes to my medication that have helped a lot with controlling my seizures and minimizing the accompanying brain fog. This helped me get out of the slump I’d been stuck in since February—I’ve had a much…

BRACE YOURSELVES.
Okay, everybody! I am finally—finally—ready to share with you all the zany, over-the-top title for my new book… complete with zany, over-the-top cover and synopsis. Are you ready?! I don’t think you are. But here you are anyway! Yes, you read that right. The title of my upcoming f/f sci-fi novel is CHEERLEADERS FROM PLANET X! What the heck kind of title is that? Well, I find that it fits this…

Giving thanks for readers
Thursday was Thanksgiving in the USA, a day for being grateful for everything we have. 2016 was a year of ups and downs, but the one consistently positives thing through the whole year was the wonderful readers I have met in my last year of publishing. I am so grateful for all of you! As you may recall, last month I put two short stories up for free download on InstaFreebie.…

A little about Scylla
So, Different Worlds has been out for a few days and now seems like a good time to talk about something that isn’t really a spoiler but didn’t really make sense to post about without the book being available for people to look at and understand what the heck I’m talking about, and that’s Scylla. It’s been in the works since the get-go that Scylla is aro-ace, but it wasn’t something…

WIP Snippets: Seventh Line
I saw this cool meme floating around, and I knew it was too much fun to skip! The rules were as follows: Go to the seventh line on the seventh page of your WIP and share a little of what you’re working on. Then tag seven writers to spread the fun! So, here are a few paragraphs from my two current WIPs, beginning around the seventh line on the seventh page (since…

Conquering Stress and Getting Organized
I’ve been really struggling with managing stress recently. I’m not going to dwell on this too much here, but I had an MRI last month. The news was not terrible, but it wasn’t good, either—the pituitary tumor I had removed in 2014 has recurred. It is benign, so that’s good news. But if it’s left alone, it can really screw up my endocrine system, my vision, and all sorts of…
