I saw this link to Witty Comics on PBW’s site and thought it looked like fun. I decided to check in on Red and the gang to see what they were up to now. I call it, “Red’s Dead World Reality”. Spoilers exist in the comic, so if you haven’t read CRIMSON you may want to...

I snuck in a reread of Eternal Nights this week. While I do reread my stories when they first come out (or when I get ARCs), it's rare for me to reread an older book unless I need a specific bit of information from it. I had to scan through both EN and Ravyn's Flight real quickly before writing...

I hereby declare this a brand new holiday. Welcome to FRUSTRATION DAY 2009. It comes right between major holidays but you don't get it off. Most offices, however, are closed, or working with skeleton crews, so you can't get anything much done, but at the same time you have all of the year end ...

At one of the Romance Writer of America (RWA) conferences, I heard a luncheon speaker say something along the lines of most people want to win the lottery and quit their jobs to have fun, but writers want to win the lottery so they can quit their jobs and have more time to write. I'm afraid that...

We went out bright and early on Christmas morning to catch Sherlock Holmes at the theater. It’s the movie that I’ve been really looking forward to seeing. I quite enjoyed the interaction between Jude Law and Robert Downey Jr. Their bantering was hilarious. The movie itself is enjoyabl...

I mentioned before Thanksgiving that my family watches movies on the holidays and that I was going with Disney classics since those are about the only films we can all watch together. I like action and adventure and my parents don't. On Thanksgiving, we watched The Boatniks and that was a huge ...

We just returned from seeing Avatar. I admit that I wasn’t as excited to see this film as dh. He’s been looking forward to the movie for quite a while. (I’m really looking forward to Sherlock Holmes.) The special effects definitely live up to all the hype. It’s hard to spo...

Over the weekend, I felt a driving urge to read In the Darkest Night, my April 2010 book, and revisit Kel and his heroine. I don't know why since since I've had the Advanced Reading Copies (ARCs) of this book for a couple of weeks now, but I couldn't resist. So Friday night while I was doing la...

Okay, I go through stages. In fact, being the observant types you are, you probably have noticed it.1. Exhausted and/or ill. (Frequently following a heavy push to complete a book on deadline.) Depressed. Practically incapable of coherent thought. I not only don't have ideas, I don't know if...

Didn't get another blog posted last week here on my own blog. I had two last Thursday in other places. I blogged at Whipped Out about making salsa from scratch (or from tomatoes, onions & peppers, if you can't get any scratch (Ba-dum-ching!)), and I also blogged at To Be Read the same day. So...

Okay, today is a little less weepy, although still a bit stressed. You see, the kitties were "too old" and "too shy" so they're back in my yard. But healthy, with their shots and tests done. And I will get them spayed/neutered in the next few weeks as well because I ...SOOOOOO do not need more fe...

Dh and I made a whirlwind trip out to California this weekend to attend a Christmas Party. It was a very long eight hour drive each way, but it was worth it because we arrived at the Bacara Resort. It sits on seventy something acres of ocean front property. Understated luxury coupled with fabulou...
