Sheepsquatch

Publishing day came and went. Succubus had a better opening day than anything else, which is gratifying. Building an audience takes time, but I think I’m actually doing it. So now my attention switches to Sheepsquatch A ‘real’ cryptid from West Virginia. I took some liberties, because I do, but I choose this monster because […]

We be live!

It’s September 8th and that means publishing day! The Steel City has never been colder for Rick and Mina. On the rebound, they’ve spent the last three months doing nothing but sparring and killing monsters. In an attempt to break out of their rut, they decide to spend the night dancing and boozing at a […]

You know what?

September should not be the hottest part of the damn year. I should be looking at  hoodies not tank tops.  Yeah, I’m sweating over here. This is no fun. Regardless, I need a project. I’m never happier than when I’m drafting something new. With any luck, I’ll have an idea in the next few days. […]

Gearing up

I’m getting back on the publishing train. And I do like Amazon pre-order. Sure I kind of wish there was some sort of preview beyond the book cover, but people can see exactly when things are coming out! And I have deadlines that I have to keep! I like deadlines! So my busy time is a […]

Sleep! I got some!

Not a ton, but more than I have been the past few weeks. Tonight, I’ll be putting the finishing touches on Succubus, which is nerve wracking as hell. I normally LIKE waiting until the last possible second to catch typos and missing words. However, the pre-order system on Amazon wants some reassurances, so I have […]

Word Tics

Every writer has them. Words and phrases you use over and over. And as soon as you catch one and destroy it another one pops up. Yes, I spent last night writing sentences to get rid of one of my word tics. But Succubus is better for it and much closer to being ready for […]

New week, new worries

My husband is out of town for next few days. So I am or may not get more writing done. On the one hand, it’s just me and the kids. On the other hand, they have to start practicing going to bed early and getting up and ready to start their days (no more lounging […]

Master Procrastinator

I am amazing at procrastinating. I know most people would consider writing my daily blog the night before the opposite of procrastinating.  The kicker is that it’s supposed to be a daily exercise. Now granted, I give myself one day off a week, but I’m also digressing to make a point. I don’t want to proofread. […]

Good Morning!

And I can actually say that for once. My insomnia has finally passed. Twelve hours of sleep later, I feel chipper. Seriously. And some good news! Amazon now has a pre-order option for indie publishers! So TA-DA!   You can pre-order Succubus! The Steel City has never been colder for Rick and Mina. On the […]

Still not sleeping, still writing

Yeah, I’m still staying up  until 4 or 5. Last night I really thought I’d be asleep by 10, but no  such luck. At the kids like having mom catnap on the couch in the morning. They are quiet they can get an extra 30 minutes of video games. On the writing front, I’m still […]
