I’m feeling mildly better–but the only–and I mean ONLY thing I did over the last two days was pack, edit, and finish Mate’s sweater. Now, Friday night I read at the Lavender Library, and Saturday morning I had a chapter meeting where I got to see Anna J. Stewart and hear Sheryl Lister’s rather amazing… Read More

So, Squish and Mate have been sick ALL WEEK, and they’ve shared. Last night I started taking Zicam and Motrin and spiking a fever and I’m EXHAUSTED but I can’t sleep and I have a reading tomorrow and a meeting on Saturday and I need to fold clothes and pack in the meantime. *sniffle* I’ll… Read More

So, Mate and I were watching TV tonight and I had a sudden urge to talk about a book I turned in a month ago. Yeah, right? I don’t do this often, because as proud of I am of what I do for a living, I also tend not to inflict my imaginary people on… Read More

Okay– you have to click the link. THIS LINK HERE.  DO YOU SEE THAT? Like, OMG– it’s a baby jacket made in two pieces. By crocheting a SIX-SIDED SQUARE, each side with a right angle. Which is like… you know, WAY TOO MANY ANGLES. So, when you fold this six-sided thing, something magical happens. Something… Read More

So, was GOING to spend all day working on the Shitty Craft Book– spent it working on swag instead. The good news is, part of my swag is Suitcase Sachets, made wit Scentsy– and it smelled REALLY good.

Off duty, they were friends. They’d tried dating–once–but both had agreed that… Read More

So, it’s been raining here pretty steadily all day. Chicken and I went to take the dogs to the park and found that all the walkways near the little stream were flooded–as Chicken told the dogs, “It’s a Chihuahua death trap there, guys, and we want you to live!” So, super short walkies, obviously no… Read More

 So, tomorrow is the release day of Familiar Demon, and I have to say– I was SO DAMNED EXCITED to go back to my old stomping grounds of paranormal romance and urban fantasy. The first book– Familiar Angel-–was about Harry and Suriel, and I wanted it to be a cross between Hawaii 5-0 and Romeo and… Read More

10–You stop needing your nap and time becomes relative. 9–Second dinner becomes a thing, but it’s eaten standing up in front of the pantry as you imagine what you were doing. 8–WHO STOLE MY GLASS OF WATER? Oh. Just empty. I’ll get it in a minute. (One Hour Later…) WHO STOLE MY GLASS OF WATER??… Read More

I literally forgot to blog last night. See, what happened there was this… I spent all day in second revisions for the Shitty Craft Book and saved the evening after the family went to bed to do some serious writing on Fish. And then, at 11:30 pm, I stopped what I was doing and said,… Read More
