I haven’t posted any excerpts in a longish time, and since Oz is the popular book, and I just got some copies in, here’s a little taste.   You see, when Tinna said the City of Shattered Opals was not so very far, she was going by a dim memory of her own experience, andContinue reading “Some Undead Oz”

Small life update. Collar City Carnival was a fun little event, and I’d love to do more like it.  Unlike Reverbicon, which was just too loud to really work for vending, this was a little softer, but still cool music, and a building that is fantastic architecturally (I don’t know if that’s a word, butContinue reading “Slacker Me!”

If you know me, or follow me on Facebook, you know I don’t cook.  My cat Spirit is my chef.  And for a cat, he’s pretty skilled.  And his big dream is to beat Bobby Flay.  (I did offer to look into a MasterChef cruise for him, but the whole cat and water thing…no.) SoContinue reading “Why Spirit Can Beat Bobby Flay”

Upcoming as to where I’ll be, not a lot of dates yet.  I am easing off this year, since last year was such a bust, especially for shows that involved travel. So, of course, Saratoga Comic Con is a favorite.   Look forward to seeing Jason Mewes there, too!  Apparently, the new con in town, EmpireContinue reading “The Dates”

Wow, I’ve been gone a while.  Well, things are very hard at work these days, and I come home too exhausted to even bother with writing.  But current events and a quiet anger bring me back.  Be warned, though: in anger, a lot of vulgarity may ensue. Mass shootings.  The cycle goes on.  And asContinue reading “So….Guns.”

I seldom get political.  Inasmuch as I hate politics, now more than ever, I do have opinions.  But I hate the pigeonholing.  Am I conservative?  Am I a snowflake or a libtard?  I honestly feel there are very few absolutes, and there are a million shades in between.  And I’ve yet to see an argumentContinue reading “Minor Political Rant”

This is sort of born from a rant on work, but its a basic tenet I live by and I thought, well, a new year, a fresh start, people making resolutions?  Give them something to think on. Think about how you treat people. I won’t say where I work (ok, so a few of youContinue reading “Think on This for 2018”

I’m so lazy lately.  My job is leaving me utterly exhausted, so half of me wants to do all these cool things, and half of me (which is usually the half that wins) wants to go to bed at 8pm.  The other thing that influences the latter is that if I do go do something,Continue reading “Interim Catch Up”

Because I haven’t in a while, and this site really is about selling my books and art, right?  Christmas is around the corner (and not hiding all that well) so maybe put the first two books of a four-part series under that book lover’s tree.   He gave a delicate cough.  “Ah, right to theContinue reading “Quick Excerpt from “Scale””

Not like, from a disease or anything.  Nope.  From a vacation.  A most wondrous Halloween against spent in Vegas.  No one does decorations like the folks in Henderson’s infamous Halloween Street! Certainly doesn’t hurt to be in a place where the temps are averaging 80+, either.  Easy for me to recharge in the sun andContinue reading “Recovery”
