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

Mary (who loves me more than I could possibly deserve but I’m not complaining!) sent me a Wiccan desk calendar for 2011, and I’m loving it very very much. One of the interesting things that I noticed is that yesterday was Imbolc. It was also Groundhog Day and St. Brigid’s day, but since Groundhog Day… Read More

OKay, this is weird–it’s only happened to me a couple of times. It’s what I call “complete blankout” and it’s the reason that, not once but TWICE during college, I sat through an entire conversation in which someone broke up with me and still imagined that we were together. (Fortunately, not much time had been… Read More

So, I’ve been lucky enough to be home this last month, and the subject of ‘word count’ came up. How many words can you write in a certain space of time. Well, I was appalled, because novel wise, I’d only written around 55K–and usually, even with the EDJ and soccer/dance/karate oh-my, my word count is… Read More

Jack and Teague (& Katy’s) first story officially HAS COVER ART! Okay–I hadn’t expected to be quite so excited about this but I AM. Remember, I started these stories about three years ago, and they took me, one installment at a time, about two years to finish. Suddenly, they have a cover, and they’re going… Read More

I admit– I’m a rank novice at this whole enterprise, and that’s one of the most enchanting things about it. Our tarot cards have arrived, and I am utterly beguiled. This image is taken from my deck, Fenestra, and the art boggles me– just the fact that what you read into the card is influenced… Read More

* Good news on the picture front–I’ve talked Mate into a small camera, for me, because I’m tired of doing this shit on the blog. *woot* I’d love real pictures of the kids growing up again. (Yes, I know, this means I’m carrying around a phone, an iPod and a camera. That’s not the point…. Read More
