Book Quote Wednesday
This week’s #bookqw tweets are all about The Binding, since it releases in a week! Turns out I still like the format Canva suggests. Maybe I need a shorter quote? I did find the perfect cave image on Canva! ~~~ The #bookqw is the brainchild of paranormal author Mindy Klasky. If you’d like to […]
The Binding is almost here!
I’m excited, in that *Kermit flail* kind of way. The third book and conclusion of my fantasy story is set to release, and it looks like…THIS! I love it and urge you to get carried away with me and do a Pre-order with 1-click for the ebook even if you haven’t read the first two […]
Book Quote Wednesday
A few weeks ago I started sharing in a Wednesday tweet tagged #bookqw. Each week a new word is highlighted, and authors choose a book excerpt that includes that word. Authors are coming up with some nice graphics, so after just posting text quotes the first two weeks, I had to up my game. This […]

Nature Quotes on Canva
I’ve completed my edits on The Binding and have dove into a completely different type of creativity–Canva. LOL. Came out like a hand-knit scarf, a friend told me. But a new upload of my photo put those threads in place. I got the bug to match my nature photographs with nature quotes I’ve always liked […]
Where am I with the next book?
While researching website themes, I ran across an excellent set of pointers for authors from the coder at Nose Graze Limited: 5 Things I Like to See on an Author’s Website. Please visit the site, and read the comments, too, which detail more must-haves for authors. The item that wouldn’t leave my subconscious is under […]
The Derbyshire Mill
Last year, after my first Luminated Threads novel came out, I was describing the setting of Derbyshire, England to my eighty-eight-year-old aunt. She knew immediately where I had placed my story: “The Midlands! David Winter as a collection set there.” My aunt collected David Winter cottages through the 1980s and 90s. I’d always thought they […]
RavenCon follow-up late & I’ve disappeared
Perhaps writers ought to announce their pending disappearances when they are about to do it, but frankly, we get our heads so deep into the story problems that we rarely come up for air. Until guilt takes over. Guilt has arrived. I did go to RavenCon2016! I had a good time. Because I’m a newbie, […]
My ‘chapter booklets’ arrived! Squee!
Who knew seeing your cover in a new way could be just as exciting as seeing the real book? I printed these ‘chapter booklets’ of The Unraveling to give away at my author reading this weekend at RavenCon 2016. Into 12 text pages, we squeezed both chapter 1 & 3 to give readers a taste […]
