For those of you who were unaware, my darling son brought me a present from school. He wrapped it up in hugs and presented it to me in kisses. And I’ve been battling enjoying this damn lovely virus ever since. On a high note, I think I’m almost better. And really, other than the fact […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
No. I need a Time-Turner. Sadly, all my pleas to JK Rowling have gone unanswered. You see, for those who didn’t know, there are two of me: the YA-writer me and the adult-writer me. It isn’t a secret, but I do try to keep the two separate as much as possible. Basically, I don’t want […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
No, I’m not here to talk about the military and that stupid-ass policy. Rather, I want to discuss an issue that was brought to my attention by a member of my online writing group. She sent me an off-board message asking if I thought being digitally published hurt my chances of signing with an agent. […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Today’s the day that parents either approach with intense excitement or tremor-inducing dread. It’s the day our baby goes out into the big bad world. In this case, the baby in question is Pretty Souls. Sure, she went to college (publishing) and got her degree. She even went out for job interviews (reviews) and took […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Actually, long story short, I got sick in November and just this week had a doctor finally say “Okay, here’s some drugs that should kick it.” It got bad. […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Once again, I’m insanely sorry for the lack of blog posts lately. Life and the holidays have taken over. And tomorrow starts the mad, crazy family time, which means I’m going to be even busier the next week. For the next three days, I get to hang with my family where I will eat and […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Ah I remember it like it was just last year… Because it was. November 3, 2009, I was working on this crazy space western for NaNoWriMo and wondering if I could pull it off. At the same time, I was biting my nails waiting to hear back from agents about Pretty Souls. It didn’t take […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Some of you have been around this blog for a while. A few of you even poked around the PRT website when I first designed it. So for those of you who have been along for the ride since the beginning–huge thanks for all your support. To the people who have discovered the blog in […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I’m not sure how many of you that read this remember the PRT. You know, the group that gave the blog its original URL? Elle? Cass? That crew? Yeah. Those crazy teenagers. Hear the sh-sh-sh-sh-sh sound coming from my computer? Well that’s me dusting. A couple years worth of growth and learning are about to […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
It’s been October for a week already, and it just really hit me what all that means: 1) I have not one, but two holiday stories to get finished, polished and submitted (as the other me) 2) I have Halloween costumes to put together for the kids 3) My mother-in-law is coming to visit in […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
