Beneath the Stain

on August 29, 2014

Description: In a town as small as Tyson, CA, everybody knew the four brothers with the four different fathers– and their penchant for making good music when they weren’t getting into trouble.

Okay– at the bottom of the page, I’m going to have blog tour information for Beneath the Stain, so don’t just tune out when I start blathering, kk? So, in yarn news, it’s been sort of a big week– for one, I finished a project, and I really love it.  It’s going to Mary-my-Mary, because… Read More

*kermit flail Monday*– August

on August 4, 2014

Heh heh– can you tell I have fun with the formatting of this feature?  You should– because I really like to make everybody’s titles pop.  I know when I have a new release, it sort of consumes me.  I great about it for weeks, and every bit of feedback, good and bad, just sort of… Read More
