Let’s Talk About Plagiarism

...because you know it's out there and happens more frequently than you could possibly realize. Plagiarism. It's a dirty little word, one that people frequently misspell and can't quite grasp its meaning. They ask, "Well, what is plagiarism exactly?" Really? I'll tell you exactly what plagiarism is.... Plagiarism is, in the scholarly realm, writing 3-4 words… Continue reading Let’s Talk About Plagiarism

Book Review: Ninety-Eight by Shannon Mayer

Pain. Heartache. Tears. All of these things are associated with love. That's right, L-O-V-E. Since I was the copy editor on Shannon Mayer's newest contemporary romance Ninety-Eight, I can't exactly review it on Amazon, but I can here on my website. The reason I'm doing this is because you have to read this book. I'm not kidding. In fact, I'm demanding you read this book. I have never before had a book pull so much emotion out of me. It's sweet, funny, heart-wrenching, warm, and soul searching. And it has one helluva plot twist that I will absolutely not give away, but trust me, you'll want to wring the author's neck. I *almost* bought a ticket to Canada.
