To the person who posted the Yip Yip pattern on my FB group–Parker Williams, you know who you are… First off, I would like to say, I had a handle on my Christmas crafting. I swear I did. I was going to make three of these things here: And then I thought, “But that went… Read More

Okay– so a super short bit today. Paint it Black is getting ready to be finished, and it’s nearly 100K and yes, I know that’s too many words, I don’t know what to tell you. Also, it needs another sex scene. Anyway– the following happened today: Took Johnnie to the vet, where I had to… Read More

So I shit you not. The license plate of that vintage automobile driven by that charming elderly couple wearing very distinctive holiday costumes is GNGL BLZ. It’s enough to look for signs of Christmas cheer. Such as… *  The Lego Advent Calendar is opened and pillaged and fought over * Strange packages arrive that Mom… Read More

So, the kids and I got haircuts today–and I forgot to get a picture of Squish, but I have to tell you, she was adorable. ZoomBoy and I took selfies to, because I bobbed mine right below my ears. Looks… well, whatever. Looks like hair. I don’t have to brush it anymore, that’s the thing…. Read More

 So, super quick reminder tonight! The first thing is that I’ve released this story–which was previously in the Grand Adventures anthology–as a freebie on what is now Prolific Works. You can claim your copy here-– it’s a teeny tiny feel good vignette, so enjoy! Here’s the blurb! A Gentle Shove of Human Kindness by Amy Lane… Read More

YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!! So two things happened yesterday! One was J.P. Barnaby tagged me and said, “Is it too late for Kermit Flail?” And I went “I’m so sorry!!!!” And she said, “That’s okay– you can do it next month!” and I’m SO EXCITED that she’s writing again and we SHARE A RELEASE DATE that I thought….

YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!! Wow–Happy Holidays you guys, whether it be Hanukah (which starts this evening) or Christmas or Yule or the winter holiday of your choice. Here’s hoping it’s a good one–because we have got some stunning choices at Kermit Flail and I can’t hardly believe I get to pimp them all! I want to start with… Read More

Okay–so our winters here are usually pretty temperate–I admit that. But we do live within 45 minutes of the Sierra Nevadas, and the snow line. In fact, Foresthill, where Green’s Hill is fictionally located, is RIGHT ON the snow line. So, Squish had three games there this weekend, in all flavors of winter. There was… Read More

So, I’ll be honest. I gave up with the GIANT CHRISTMAS KNITTING QUEUE about six years ago. The people I love get knitwear when they ask for it, I’m always working on something and I’ll give it to them when I’m done. But as this Christmas approached I had… urges. Unholy, unhealthy, inescapable urges. I… Read More

Oh God the laundry… I can get to it… but my characters… but I’m writing. The kids are talking in the car and I don’t hear them. I’m writing. That e-mail is pretty important… that newsletter… that blog post… I’m writing. But shouldn’t you be planning dinner? Christmas? Oh my God, have you even thought… Read More
