State of the Writer, January 2017
Time for the annual look-back and look-forward game… 2016 was an interesting year for me, writing wise—I feel like I spent so much time editing that I didn’t get as much writing done as I wanted, but in terms … Continue reading
Twice Shy… it’s out!
Twice Shy, the third book in the Shelter series, is out. As usual, I’m not really doing any promo for it, so… sales will be what sales will be. I’m planning to do a mini-blitz when the fourth and final … Continue reading

Gearing up for a new release!
I don’t know why I keep playing with self-publishing – I really don’t like any part of the process other than writing the books! But for this series, I wanted to have more flexibility to write short stories, novellas, little … Continue reading
Themes in Writing
When I was reorganizing my website(s) recently I used it as a chance to look over my books as a sort of body of work, rather than individual stories. (Does “body of work” sound a bit pompous? Oh well!) It … Continue reading
