Man I hate it when this happens. For the past few weeks I’ve been trollin’ around stock photo sites trying to pick a cover image for my upcoming novella release. (Eee! It’s getting closer! CLOSER! Soon I’ll be doing reveals!) It’s been tough. At first I thought I found the perfect image somewhere. The models,…
“Share A Saturday” is a weekly chance for you, yes YOU, to come on my blog and talk about whatever you want, so long as it’s related to writing/books. For more information, such as if you’d like to “share a Saturday” with me, please see below! In her teens and young adult years, Lorelei has…
I can’t believe I posted this. A couple days ago I proclaimed that I was going to write another 25k in February, in a desperate attempt to get this draft I’m working on mostly written so I can get back to concentrating on editing. I still intend to do that. I just don’t think I’m…
I’m the type of person who cares a lot about logical placement. Even when I was a kid watching sitcoms on TV I always wondered how those bedrooms managed to logically fit in those house facades…then I learned that they were all TV sets, and oh. I spend hours planning out my action scenes to…

All of this is true. Well, not the dress. Or the hair. Over at Published In A Year, “The East Coaster” wrote an entry about how she gets to know her characters. I of course chimed in with a comment and, being me, attempted to write a freakin’ dissertation because my process is as weird…
Are you SURE this isn’t in Oregon? One of the great things about being networked with other writers is that…well, you can use them. Shamelessly. And rip them off. Shamelessly. I’m in a small, annoying pickle, readers. A pickle of my own creation but a pickle nonetheless. You see, I need to come up with…
Dead @ “militarily” Quiet week from me, thanks to yet another six-day day-job work week aaaaand lots and lots of gaming! Teehee~. Oh well, girl’s gotta do what she’s gotta do to stay out of a nervous breakdown, right? Of course, there was editing. A lot of editing. Every night editing! But nothing exciting, just…
