Hey y'all! Happy Valentine's Day!  I'm not a huge fan of how this holiday's gone, but I am an enormous fan of showing care and appreciation to the people in my world--you all rock!  So, I've set up a book giveaway, because SHARING IS CARING. And I care 500%. Because I care 500%, you can … Continue reading New Goodreads Giveaway!

It's Super Bowl Sunday! I hope your team wins, your half-time show has better sharks, and your commercials are worth the wait! Also, that you get lots of bad-for-you delicious things to eat.   I don't have a full/interesting post for you today, so here are the highlights: Feeding Frenzy is selling in fits and … Continue reading Life As Usual

That's not true, actually.  Not where I'm concerned.  You should all tell me your bad puns whenever they cross your mind.  Seriously, they are my delight.  I can't help it.  I've got amazing taste. For example, while writing a fairly intense scene today, the word "banhammer" got stuck in my head.  In internet communities, the … Continue reading Bad Puns Get You Banned

Publishing was a process, let me tell you. I actually hit the button Wednesday in case it would take a couple … Continue reading Published! And Exhausted!

I am freaking out over here.  The cover is ready.

Y'all. It's done.*  I've edited this thing so hard that I know what sort of things cryptographers would find, if my book was used as a cipher.  I've got the map plotted for if the clues left in the creases of the pages were somehow turned into a DaVinci Code style mystery.  I've counted every single … Continue reading That’s a Wrap

In my head, art is magic.  You concentrate really hard at a computer or canvas or piece of wood and then it miraculously becomes a finished product.  It turns out that real life isn't quite like that.  My friend  and cover designer David Berg has had to explain physics to me about eight times since November.  He's … Continue reading How to Make Your Illustrator Cry (And why you shouldn’t)

A happy unbirthday to us all!  This is my first blog post ever, which seems bizarre because I'm pretty sure you need to have published an op ed or rant or book review online now in order to graduate high school, and I don't feel that much older than I did in high school.  Ergo, I … Continue reading A Happy Unbirthday to Us!
