I started this month with a plan; a plan to write a NEW and exciting novel! Yes! I am participating in NaNoWriMo again this year–and I am NOT going rebel again! I’m writing something NEW! That plan did NOT include dislocating my shoulder–or all of the difficulties that go along with barely being able to use my … More NaNoWriMo 2017!
Recently I posted on Facebook about characters who have a mind of their own… Part of this question came from the fact that my mother and my son have a very sharp (sometimes frighteningly so) wit and I do not.

Ironically enough, though I had just finished writing an entire series that was set in a dystopian-esque world with a strong steam theme, … More So… who is really the weird one here?
I was scrolling through Pinterest the other day, giggling over the memes on what Star Wars might have been if Anakin had never gone to the Dark Side. And a strange thought came to me… What if our reluctant assassin had not been so reluctant? What if Kayden had not fallen in love with the … More What if a reluctant assassin – had not been quite so reluctant . . .
READER QUESTION: Obviously, the nature of Kayden’s character is to be secretive, but is there any insight you could give us about her? Actually it’s interesting you should ask. Recently, my children and I were watching one of our new favorite movies and that topic came up. This answer is going to be tricky since – … More Who is Kayden | Part 1
