...because you KNOW I don't do these things for myself as an author or even publisher (yet). *gasp* An actual honest-to-goodness author event? Yes, my darling minions.....well, it's called Phoenix Comicon and it is the first weekend in June.

Sneak Peek: ASSASSIN, Take 3
The next night is Girls’ Night Out, and boy do I ever need it. Killian’s not happy that I’m running off with the girls, but he gets it. Sometimes, you just need a night out with your friends. Once the last gal—Lillian—climbs into our rented limo, we’re off, and I sigh heavily because my best… Continue reading Sneak Peek: ASSASSIN, Take 3
Skip a Starbucks Day!
...and yes, we're doing this again because it's a great cause! In November 2010, friend and author CJ Redwine and her husband Clint adopted a beautiful little bundle of joy into their family, and I was happy to participate in their "Skip a Starbucks Day" event then. I held a contest and gave away prizes,… Continue reading Skip a Starbucks Day!
Skin: an Excerpt from Dusk of Death

We have raised generations of girls who think this way, and I'll admit that after being raised on Disney stories about princesses being rescued from whatever fate held them back, I was one of… Continue reading Why Kick-Ass Heroines Need to Exist
It’s a Techie World
...and apparently us techies can't operate a two-way radio.
Let’s Face It…
I suck at blogging. I really, really do. And that's okay. I can admit it. That's a step forward, right? Of course it is because I'm not in denial about it. But this year, I'm making a few changes, mainly because I need to get myself organized again. Let's please not call them New Year's Resolutions. Those are only a To Do list that *may* last a month. The changes I'm talking about are long-term, because that's how I roll.
