Once again, I found myself tumbling into a curious reading theme in July. This time many of the books I picked up had troublesome buildings playing a key role in the story. From the possessed printing office of The Stranger Times to the dark demons haunting Gil's All-Fright Diner to the tragic event outside The Dakota in The Final Days … Continue reading July’s Reading Round-up: Location, Location, Location
“Did You Get the Email!?”
Hello Bloglandia! Bit of an odd (in a weird way) title there, but it was also an odd (in a funny way) phone call when that line was spoken. A little background about parental support regarding my creative endeavors first. My mom has always been super supportive of my writing without being shy to say, … Continue reading “Did You Get the Email!?”
Go on, read my books for free! No, really.
Hello Book Lovers of Bloglandia! That post title is no joke. There's a new way you can read my books for free. Well, okay, I better clarify this. I'm not dropping the price of all my books to zero cents. What kind of loony bird do you think I am. Wait, don't answer that. See, … Continue reading Go on, read my books for free! No, really.
June’s Writing Round-up
Hello Bloglandia! So June was an amazing month in my writing world. Unfortunately the month had to end with The Horrible Heat Wave That Proves the Evils of 2020 Aren't Done With Us Yet. Not to load you down with a lengthy weather report, but here in Portland we're normally in the high 70s at … Continue reading June’s Writing Round-up
Oh No! I’ve Become a Pantser.
Hello Bloglandia! How's your June going? Any plans for summer (or for winter, if you're on the upside-down part of the globe)? My June, so far, has been going swimmingly...and not just because we FINALLY got some rain here in Portland. See, I kind of, sort of wrote a book. Okay, a first draft of … Continue reading Oh No! I’ve Become a Pantser.
The Marvelous Bookstore Makeover (with Celebratory Discount)
Hello Bloglandia! (Note: I also ramble on about this in my latest Video Update at about the 8:45 mark, if you're interested in watching me get all giddy about shiny new things). If you ever visited my Payhip Bookstore, you might remember it as looking a bit...well, hideous. See, Payhip didn't make it easy to arrange … Continue reading The Marvelous Bookstore Makeover (with Celebratory Discount)
Take That, Neil! (May’s Writing Round-up)
Hello Bloglandia! Egad! I blinked and May disappeared. Anyone else experience this blinky-time warp phenomenon? I guess that means I need to make the most of June...or just never blink again. I better put in an order for a case of eye drops. Anyway...if you're not in the mood for reading today, you'll get a … Continue reading Take That, Neil! (May’s Writing Round-up)
Bribes, Bananas, and a Book Release Party (with Video)
Hello Cassie Black Fans of Bloglandia! Okay, I lied. There's no bananas in this email. I just couldn't resist the alliteration. But there is a bribe and it really is another release day. And I promise this will be the last one for a little while because this release brings the exciting conclusion of the … Continue reading Bribes, Bananas, and a Book Release Party (with Video)
Book Review: D (A Tale of Two Worlds by Michel Faber)
Hello Bloglandia! So back in late March/early April, I kind of sort of promised I'd start doing some video book reviews. Um...I did one (which you can see HERE, by the way). As I said in my latest writing update, April was a very weird month, so some plans got a bit waylaid. But, I'm … Continue reading Book Review: D (A Tale of Two Worlds by Michel Faber)
