Fantasy and horror books and blogposts
Friends, Romans, countrymen....we are back in the USA, and back at home! Which means I have so many things to tell you about, because I was gone for two weeks which is literally forever. Coming back this week has been crazy hard, what with getting back into the swing of things, and the next few... Continue Reading →
What a weekend. So I want to start off with some background, here, before I talk about selling books and such. I came into this weekend a bit like a jetplane making an emergency aquatic landing. That is to say, I belly-flopped right into RAI because I was straight up out of fuel and had... Continue Reading →
Recently, a friend and I were discussing trends in storytelling. We were talking about how, for a while, zombies were the "it" thing to write or make shows and movies about. She argued that now, the "it" thing was exemplified by shows like Westworld. I'll admit that I haven't watched Westworld yet, but I'll take her... Continue Reading →
Early post this week to update you on some upcoming events! And while we're here, some discussion of what's been going on in my life! You'll get a regular post on Friday about some fun Daughter of Madness inspiration, but stop in with me for a moment to get up to date. This weekend I will be... Continue Reading →
It's a new year - indeed, it's been a new year for about a week now. That newness has a lot of worry and strangeness caught up in it for me and mine, but also a lot of excitement and forward-looking hopefulness. There is the prospect of marriage, of maybe moving, of traveling. There is no... Continue Reading →
Happy Holidays to one and all! No matter what you celebrate, I hope you have a great time this year. Heavens knows we need it. One of the things I want to talk about with this post is the importance of making space for yourself, of making time to be quiet and small in vastness,... Continue Reading →
The other day, a friend and I were discussing the movie The Fifth Element. My S.O. loves that movie. It is ironically one of the only science fiction movies that he enjoys. I chalk this up to nostalgia - not that I don't enjoy the movie, the opposite, but it's not really his kind of science... Continue Reading →
I promised you a Thanksgiving post so here we are! My friends and I got together last Sunday to make some scrumptious things, as we do every year, and here is the menu list, with occasional pictures. Plus what I made for my family's Thanksgiving! Recipe links, discussion of adaptations, and general cookery follow. Feel free... Continue Reading →
I love October. What's not to love? The weather breaks, the long, slow, syrupy summer finally drawing to a close. Sweaters come out. Leaves die, turning the world all shades of orange and red and yellow and bronze. It's pretty cool. October is a month that teaches us about death. We all know that living... Continue Reading →
So I have a problem called spin-too-many-plates syndrome. Meaning I like to constantly be juggling a lot of stuff. "Like" may not be the best word, actually. Perhaps it would be better to say that I pathologically over-stuff my plate. Or that I get bored easily. Or that I am overly ambitious. Or am violently... Continue Reading →
