I realized this weekend that it’s now officially been six months since we moved in – and two months since we added a dervish of a puppy to our household. We’ve created a whole new world for ourselves in just half a year. It’s remarkable if you frame it that way. Animals are known to … Creating a New World

Presenting… the cover of book 3 of my Planet Seekers series. I finally have some confidence that I’ll have the energy and time to write the story that concludes this arc, so I”m happy to share the excellent work my cover artist at Sleepy Fox Studio produced for me… last year. As per my previous … Cover Reveal: Planet Seekers: Team Shifter

The release of Team TaoRuti marked the completion of my 12th book, as well as my 13th release. It’s the second book in an SFR series, my first new (story) release in nearly two years, and reflected a decent amount of the collective trauma we’ve lived through in Our Year of COVID. It was hard … That’s It?

This week hubs and I celebrate 23 years of marriage, so it is fitting that I should run across an article describing six distinct types of love.

I’d just started a new position on a new project at the day job, so it probably wasn’t realistic to expect to complete the story then. But I would … NaNoWriMo or Bust

Days have a way of catching us between their teeth and grinding us down with their unrelenting sameness at the moment. I was deeply upset when the writers’ retreat cruise Gayla and I had planned to attend at the end of this month was cancelled, and any alternate plans made untenable by the persisting state … Daily Blessings

Another month has flown by. The days melt into each other with little distinction, and we see far too many viral videos about humans lashing out and beating each other up as they fight the nebulous fear of a virus that is still rampaging across the planet. I’m unbelievably lucky that my job was easy … Viral

It’s been about a month since my last post, and in that time life in America has come to the kind of grinding halt very few could have anticipated. I’m one of the lucky few who has a job that I can do entirely from home–though I do worry for my younger colleagues who have … Introverted, Isolated, or Quarantined?

Quick update to let you know I’m participating in C.L. Cannon’s virtual Fantasy and Sci-Fi Book Fair for the next month. My books The Builders and Planet Seekers: Team Alpha are both half off in honor of this event. For the moment, this is about as creative as I’m able to be, as my day … Fantasy and Sci-Fi Virtual Book Fair
