Hi! Thanks for spending a little time today with me, Caitlin Ricci, and my co-author, Cari Z, as we talk about our new novel, Camellia. Today we wanted to talk a little bit about what dominance means to us since Camellia is a lesbian romance with BDSM aspects and we both feel that the idea … Continue reading BDSM in a Lesbian World #authorcorner with Caitlin Ricci and Cari Z

Updates from the Beyond
Yes, I have noticed that I haven't been around in the last few weeks. It's honestly because I've been so busy, and not busy with fun stuff. My blog posts for my author's corner have dwindled the past three weeks, all failing to be given to me and thus not shared with you. I've been … Continue reading Updates from the Beyond

The Love that Dare Not Write Its Name? #authorcorner Tom Williams
I'm so excited for this guest post today! It's something that I've thought about multiple times, and I would like to add in one aspect that Tom does not mention. I think the scenario is slightly different for f/f books. Please read and comment on this fabulous post about the publishing industry and what it … Continue reading The Love that Dare Not Write Its Name? #authorcorner Tom Williams

Jumping in, two feet forward
I feel as though I'm completely jumping into part of the market world. I've signed and paid for my first ad to be placed (no, I'm not saying where or how much--maybe if it works or does work, there will be another post on that). I've been doing a lot of giveaways with eBooks and … Continue reading Jumping in, two feet forward

Crashing into the atmosphere!
Tomorrow marks the first day of my blog tour for Dying Embers. There will be interviews, excerpts posted and spotlights all over the internet! Well, at least a small portion of the internet. I can't tell you how excited I am for this book to come out (in both senses of that term). Dying Embers … Continue reading Crashing into the atmosphere!
WIPpet Wednesday and NaNoWriMo update! November 6, 2013
Howdy! I have goodies for you! We have a WIPpet excerpt from Fallen from Grace (the one I have been doing), and we have a NaNoWriMo update!! Because the update is quicker, we'll start with that (don't ask me why I'm typing in the plural...I have no clue why). I was off to a slow … Continue reading WIPpet Wednesday and NaNoWriMo update!

Grammar Wednesday: Word Mixups – Faze v Phase
Tricky bugger! You can phase out of something and not have it faze you. That's how this one works. EXAMPLES The star ship phased out of reality and into the third dimension. The captain stared at the view screen, unfazed by what was happening.
Tiaras, crowns and the royal throne!
I thought that I should give you all an update on what's going on book-wise. I've been posting excerpts for awhile now, but I think a succinct post on them all might be helpful. To bring it all down to the basics, I've been editing a lot lately and not writing. This has got to … Continue reading Tiaras, crowns and the royal throne!
Grammar Wednesday: Word Mixups – Reek v Wreak
This is a rather easy one to figure out. One can wreak havoc with things that reek. =P Reek is a smell, nasty, but a smell nonetheless To wreak is a verb; it is something that someone does to something else. It is also not to be confused with "wreck," which I have actually seen … Continue reading Grammar Wednesday: Word Mixups – Reek v Wreak
WIPpet Wednesday!! October 9, 2013
Wow...I really just tried to write July for the date! I will not be joining next week because I will be on a mini getaway with my boyfriend. I so need it. I'm only getting one day off for about 6 weeks straight. Feel free to come kidnap me! So long as fun things happen … Continue reading WIPpet Wednesday!! October 9, 2013
Grammar Wednesday: Word Mixups – Then v Than
These are two that get mixed up ALL the time, and it annoys me to no end. They mean very different things and can completely change the reading of a sentence and what follows. EXAMPLES Rusty, the wonder kitten, scarfed down her food and then vomited it up. Rusty thought it was better to lounge … Continue reading Grammar Wednesday: Word Mixups – Then v Than

WIPpet Wednesday! Sept 11, 2013
So last week, I didn't get many comments. It was suggested that perhaps this was due to the small WIPpet that I posted. This week you'll get more. 20 paragraphs 9 + 11 = 20 of what immediately follows last weeks post. I haven't actually written anything in over a week *head desk* so finding … Continue reading WIPpet Wednesday! Sept 11, 2013
Grammar Wednesday: Word Mixups – Gentle v Genteel v Gentile
Here's a three-fer. Gentle means to be nice, to be kind and soft and comforting. Genteel means to be polite and respectable. Gentile is a person who was not a Jew in Biblical times. Someone who was not of the monotheistic faith. EXAMPLES He was gentle when he brushed the tangles out of his … Continue reading Grammar Wednesday: Word Mixups – Gentle v Genteel v Gentile
Excitement and more!
As most of you know, I spent two weeks traveling around the US from the East Coast to almost the West Coast. What you don't know is that on my way back from Montana to Texas, I had an amazing visit with fellow WIPpeter and friend, Sarah Hart. She met up with me at the … Continue reading Excitement and more!
