Running on Empty, Fuzzy Brain in Tow, but Still Moving Forward🪫
Hello and Happy Sunday! I’m so glad Sunday is here, even if I do seem to be in a tad bit of a grumpy mood — only a teeny tiny hint of one though. Any who, yesterday I gave my speech on suicide, and it went well even though I was up until 2:00 a.m. […]
A Little Late but Plenty Ahead
Catching up on blogs, chasing new ideas, and sharing what’s next. Well… as you can tell, I missed posting yesterday.I haven’t even written my speech for Saturday.

Happy Thursday! I know I’m a day late in writing and posting.Yesterday, my friend and I were on the road for the majority of the day, so I didn’t really get a chance to do much writing. Once we made it to the hotel, we were tired—I was actually that “slap-happy” kind of tired. There […]

I’m working on Dating Die-Sasters again and I’ve been rewriting some of my characters. I’ve started with some of the death scenes. Some of you may remember […]
Organized Chaos: Momentum in the Making
Before It Begins – Again😎 Happy Sunday! Today is kind of a down day for me. On Friday, I actually sent an email and an NDA for upcoming projects, along with three chapters of Dangerous Desires, to a publishing company (fingers crossed). I would love to have an agent and publisher for all of my […]
Turning the Page: What’s Next on My Writing Journey
What’s Next! Dangerous Desires is officially out and available on Amazon (paperback and Kindle)! The Southern Festival of Books this past Sunday was okay, but I think the weather played a big part in keeping people away. One of the nearby booths even closed up hours early.

Publishing Pains to Fulfillment: When Everything Goes Wrong but Turns Out Right

First, my book finally went live yesterday on Amazon — both the eBook and paperback! Getting this one published was one of the most frustrating experiences I’ve ever dealt with.
