Women and Storytelling (and TV, I suppose)
There’s not much to report on the writing front over here, and then when I decided to check in and write a blog post anyway, I was having issues with Blogger loading. I know, excuses, excuses. So I figured I might as well grab some of my tags to use as a title and ramble […]

The Name Game, Part 1
Since I got the contract for Out of Orbit sooner than expected, my writing fingers are already starting to get itchy. I read the two books I wanted to read, and for whatever reason, video games are not calling to me right now, so I’ve already started outlining for my next WIP. I’ll go into […]

Promo – What You Crave, by Landra Graf
Today, I’m thrilled to host Landra Graf, who’s here to promote her new 1Night Stand book, What You Crave. We’re going to take a walk on the wild side as she talks about her BDSM books (the writing of which I’ve dabbled in slightly, but have yet to fully jump into). Take it away, Landra! […]

Meet the Team – Dr. Karin Cassels
Ready for some fun? My good buddy Boobulon has made me some nifty book-related artwork again to celebrate The Fall of the Midnight Scorpions. Now that the book is finally out, I’m ready to present them in profiles of the six main characters. I’ll include some backstory that didn’t make it into the final book, […]

Jumping on a Bandwagon
Heyo! I’m alive, the babies are wonderful, but blogging and writing has taken a bit of a backseat, as I expected. Also, I am apparently a masochist, since I let myself be talked into doing some work from home earlier than I expected. Meh, I might have gone back for a few days this summer […]

Take Notes, This is How It’s Done
Dragon Age: Inquisition arrived at my house almost two weeks ago, and I’ve been playing it non-stop since then. (The game is MASSIVE, and I know I still have a ways to go. At least I’m getting my money’s worth! Writing can wait.) I’ll reserve my final judgment for when I finish my first playthrough, […]

(Or something? Yeah, I screwed that title up.) Not every character in a story is going to have a starring role. One aspect of writing that’s frequently on my mind is how to flesh out the minor characters and bring them to life, ranging from the secondary characters who tag along with the main group […]

Strong Women
I have plenty of thoughts about the topic that gives this post its title, enough that I may have to revisit it from time to time. I like to think as myself as a strong, competent, capable woman, and I like to read about the same. After all, don’t we try to identify with the […]
