Okay– I admit it. Today is all about Squish. It’s going to be short because we’re going to the zoo in San Francisco tomorrow (okay, why it’s tomorrow and not on Friday, when we had a monsoon until 11 a.m. but blue skies after that is sort of a story in it’s own, one in… Read More

Okay, so I spent the day with my kids, + two–and yes, I borrowed them from the neighbor. Poor baby– everyone send good thoughts to her, she’s having one motherfucker of a pregnancy. She can’t keep shit down, barely gets out of bed–anyway, she’s got a nine year old who was being home schooled, and… Read More

I was sitting here, answering a friend’s e-mail, when suddenly my strong, beautiful, Chicken hauls off and whacks my shoulder with all of her considerable strength. “What in the FUCK?” “It was the world’s ugliest bug, mom! I had to kill it!” Now neither of us are usually the squeally girl type, but suddenly, she… Read More

SERIOUSLY nothing to report here, except it’s raining. It’s raining, and that gazunga car bill did NOT go toward fixing our air conditioner, which means there’s no defrog, and every trip I take in the car is a nightmare of wiping off the inside windshield and trying to put together the road in front of… Read More

My current songworm is posted below– it’s called Mordred’s Lullaby and it’s by Heather Dale, and I used the Prince Nuada clip just because it’s really frickin’ creepy. Anyway, the song is about how Morgause shaped her son (and pretty much ruined him) from birth by whispering terrible, insidious things to him as he slept…. Read More

So, business first, Truth in the Dark was awarded that purty little button fromJoyfully Reviewed — I’m so very proud! And, I’m not sure I posted these here–I put them up on Facebook, but not here: These are from Love Romance Cafe for Keeping Promise Rock–the Runner Up is for best contemporary, and the Winner… Read More

Okay—so Yearning is available today and I’m really sort of nervous. See, the thing is, the cover SAYS it’s Book 1 of the Green’s Hill Werewolves. (Yay!) But everyone’s going to think that makes it, you know, Book the First. And it is. But it’s not. And that’s where things get tricky. Seven years ago… Read More

I’ve said it before, Zoomboy is such an odd little duckling, that sometime he just about breaks my heart. Last night, after an OMG *exhausting* day that involved two trips to the pharmacy, $1200 worth of bad car news, and a meeting with my son’s teacher that I’d forgotten about twice and that STILL didn’t… Read More

Zoomboy is assigned 20 minutes of reading every day. He’s supposed to read to us, but seriously? Twenty minutes of quiet in our house? When Mom’s not making dinner, coaching teenagers, or out buying snack? So we told him to read to his sister. And she sits there and listens. So what are they reading… Read More

I’m so depressed! I actually had a real picture– a GOOD one… one of the cat laying on Squish who was laying on Chicken–it was awesome and precious and now I can’t find my phone. *grumble* Frickin’ technology. Sometimes me hates it. Anyway… next week, we’re going to be neck deep in the cover picture… Read More
