Since the pandemic hit our area in mid-March 2020, the hubby and my son and I have pretty much hardly left our house. Since we can both work 100% from home now, and our son has started virtual schooling... well, we just don't have much reason to get out. Ever. But after nearly 6 months of this... we were FED UP. We needed a change of scenery... while still being as safe as possible. (None of us want to catch covid, no matter what the chances are of it being a severe case vs a mild case, just ... View Post

Another Camp NaNo in the books! (and update on Bastard of Blessing)
I "won" Camp NaNoWriMo! Set a goal of 20k words for the month of April. Wrote 21,683. This is the 7th Camp NaNo I've "won". I've discovered over the last few years that writing 15-20k words a month is pretty much my comfortable, average pace. I don't have to try very hard to hit that number. Now, the 50k required for REAL NaNoWriMo in November... those I have to struggle for. I feel I have finally settled into a good place as a writer now... only 23 years after writing my first novel. :) ... View Post
These are the journeys of the starship DEFIANT (civilian class): An Unplanned Launch
Day 1 Well, we're off. In a manner of speaking. Our launch date was moved up a bit because of some irresponsible dock manager over-booking the berths, so several ships had to skedaddle out of here ahead of schedule in order to make room for the incoming supply ships. Ugh. Of course. The little people are always booted out of the way for the big coorporations. Sure, they offered us a free two-week docking pass next time we came back here... but... well, we're not planning to come ... View Post
Sorry (not sorry!)… no choices for you!
Choose your own path... orrrr maybe not...So I told you all this next book series, The Legacy of Lucky Logan, first began when I wanted to explore more the idea behind an outlaw falling in love with a law-abiding woman, inspired by Mary Linton and Arthur Morgan's relationship in Red Dead Redemption 2. Well, after I mulled around that idea a bit, I thought it would be super fun to write a Choose-Your-Own-Path-style novel, where the reader could choose whether they wanted to stay an outlaw or ...

How Mary Linton inspired a whole book series…
You can get book ideas from anywhere and everywhere... But usually the book that ends up being written is nothing like the original idea! I'm currently writing a 6-8 book series that now has two spin-off series of its own... and it all started with Mary Linton... But some of you may be asking: Who in the hell is Mary Linton!?!? Well, I'm glad you asked! Mary Linton is a side character in the videogame Red Dead Redemption 2. Matter of fact, Mary Linton is the former lover of ... View Post
