Today, June 13th, I reached Level 50 in this biological game of Life. As a punk from the 80s, I didn't think I'd make it this far*, and twenty years ago, I nearly took my own life. I certainly didn't think I'd be alone and childless in this journey, but here I am, doing my… Continue reading Achievement Unlocked: Demigod – Year 50

A Drop in Time
Hey. I know. I've been quiet. I've had a lot going on in my life. I'll eventually get to the point in which I'll share it with the world, but for now, I need quiet. I need distance. I need solitude. I need peace. I haven't forgotten about you, though. I see you from afar.… Continue reading A Drop in Time
Out of the Black
So my dearest friend and soul sister, Kitty, decided to turn her playlist into a poem today. I have to admit, it's pretty stunning. Thusly, I have been challenged, along with the tagged group of fine writerly types. So here goes. Note: it's a little creepy, yet frighteningly accurate. Song titles in boldface. *ahem* Out… Continue reading Out of the Black
Exhaustion
One of the things about working full time at my age with everything I have to deal with on a health level on top of Umi's health crises is that trying to promote anything regarding my books is daunting. It doesn't help that I've been on medications that affect the way I think for so long that… Continue reading Exhaustion
The Secret Life of Jinxie G: Part IV
....you want me to go out? Social Anxiety! ACK! Yeah, it's a problem I have. I want to go hang out with friends, yet I don't because Oh My Fuck, I have to interact with people (strangers) and what if I say or do something stupid. I mean, I have no problem laughing at myself, but… Continue reading The Secret Life of Jinxie G: Part IV

I even left you a nice little link directly to the book on Amazon. I'm nice like… Continue reading Cover Reveal: Born of Magic
The Secret Life of Jinxie G: Part III
I'd started this post last week, but then it became entirely too personal. Depression had reared its ever-so-ugly head yet again, but I've got a handle on it now and can write somewhat sanely about it. You know that edge of depression, where you're fucking teetering, about to lose your balance and fall over? I'd passed… Continue reading The Secret Life of Jinxie G: Part III
Adventures in Comiconland
...when I'm not actually working the event. Phoenix Comicon was the last weekend in May this year and I had a blast, even though my body was basically all "fuck you" after walking for two days straight. Originally, I was only supposed to go for one day, but my friend Gary Wilson over at Nightstalker… Continue reading Adventures in Comiconland
Grind
The me that you know smiles and laughs when deep inside she feels nothing tick tick tick The me that you know functions through life when deep within she’s falling apart screech The me that you know fights every day through a pain most cannot fathom grind The me that you know has become a… Continue reading Grind
Happy Holidays!
...and I've missed an entire week of these, haven't I? Oh wait, I did one on Monday. Never mind. So Christmas has arrived and I don't know what the rest of you got for gifts, but you can't top a dragon! That's right, I got a dragon. I'm now the Mother of Dragons. Okay, his… Continue reading Happy Holidays!
