Okay, I'm going to start off by saying this morning's post is late because WP decided, much like FB, to "improve" things. That meant changing the entire frigging posting interface. Fortunately, I'm a stubborn woman and I kept checking various menus, options, etc., until I found the old interface. That is a big sigh, as... Continue Reading →
What Would You Do?
No, I'm not talking about the ABC program. Although, now that I think about it, the premise of the program sort of fits here. We're all living a scenario that most of us would never have considered trying to write six months ago. A "pandemic" that really isn't. (Yes, I know. Covid-19 is real and... Continue Reading →
New Developments at Amazon
Let's get a couple of things out of the way first. Every indie author out there owes Amazon a thank you. The company took a risk on us when no other major platform would. It wasn't altruism that motivated them. It was profit. The corporate gurus knew there were readers out there who would pay... Continue Reading →
Adventures in Publishing
The last six weeks or so, I've been butt in chair and fingers on keyboard. Lots of words have been written. More important in some ways, new print versions of all my books are in the pipeline. It's amazing how much work that entails. It is the sort of busy work I hate doing even... Continue Reading →
Reality vs Perception
This isn't the post I planned on writing this morning. But there are times when you have to throw plans out the window and adapt. This is one of those times and you can blame Sarah for lighting the fire. You see, she left me a message after I turned off the computer last night... Continue Reading →
Knowing Your Genre
Years ago, Sarah somehow got me to admit I wrote stories. I'm still not sure how she managed it. It's a special talent of hers, something she's used on others besides me. Not only did she get me to admit I wrote stories and had for years, she managed to pry a chapter out of... Continue Reading →

Promo Post Redux
I'll admit it. I'm head down, fingers on keyboard and pushing through a major rewrite on the work-in-progress. That means my brain isn't allowing me to come up for air, much less to think about anything to blog about. So, here is a promo post for some of the titles your resident mad geniuses (genii?)...

Promo Post
Brad got hijacked by real life this morning and wasn't able to post. So here's a new promo post for your Mad Geniuses (Genii?), Enjoy. Tom by Dave Freer Tom is a cat in trouble. The worst possible kind of trouble: he’s been turned into a human. Transformed by an irascible old magician in need... Continue Reading →
An old snip, some promo and an achy shoulder
I hope everyone has had a wonderful -- and safe -- holiday season so far. I'll admit that I'm going to wimp out on the blog today. Part of the reason is I have a promo going on and today is the last day for it. Part is the injured shoulder is making it more... Continue Reading →
