Ohmy Ima Beta
My First Experience as a Beta Reader The term ‘beta reader‘ is completely new to me. All I knew about “beta” was the fish and beta testing video games and computer programs. I am published through a small press with two internal editors. Until very recently, I hadn’t realized there were different kinds of editors: […]
Halloween Thrills
Happy Halloween Halloween on a Wednesday doesn’t lend its self to a big night of hell-raising. (I’ve got work the next day.) But you can still carve a pumpkin, hand out some candy, watch a scary movie or ready a short disturbing tale. I have posted my submission to the GoodReads Paranormal & Horror Lovers […]
National Novel Writing Month…am I brave enough?

Thrush, is of a completely different vein than my […]

You Look Fetching in Chain Mail
(I swear I am not starting a Kristen Stewart blog ) ‘Snow White and the Huntsman‘ is amazing. It may seem silly, but going to the movies is a big deal to me. Ticket prices are high and run times are long. A movie has to look spectacular for me to want to watch it […]
