I’m in desperate spring clean mode at the moment. Last week I ended up going through my den and packed up 9 boxes of books that I took to the fire hall for their annual book drive. I didn’t even shed a tear, which is a tiny bit surprising considering that I apparently collect books [...]

Okay, so I might fudge the timeline a little bit. My brain’s not so sharp these days, oh well. Anyway, here are some things I’ve learned lately that I did not previously know:
- I’m getting brand new covers for a bunch of my Samhain books! Willow Bend, Love’s Evolution and BCPI books 1 through 5. [...]

The Pridelands 6: Achan’s Peace is now available at Changeling Press! I’m pretty excited about this one as I got to revisit some wonderful characters of mine. Those of you familiar with the Pridelands series will know that Achan has been through some difficulties in the past so it’s about time he found a little [...]

I think I’m in the home stretch with Indigo Knights 1: Squire. I’ve got 36K on it already and I’ve passed the big climax. Now I just need to get my heros back into comfy-cozy land and I’ll be done. Woohoo!
Not much else going on. Been trying to piece together the rest of the series [...]

The heroes — and heroines, in straight romance — are larger-than-life and beautiful, the sex (when present) is transcendent, there’s always a happy ending. I don’t necessarily agree with that assessment, but that’s not really what this blog’s [...]

We’re at the halfway point to the Brenda Novak Diabetes Auction so if you haven’t checked it out yet then now’s the time! In the past this auction has donated over $770,611 towards diabetes research and this year Brenda wants to get over that million dollar mark! (On a personal note, my mom is diabetic [...]

And Ron. And a haunted house. Right smack in the middle of writing These Haunted Heights, and trying to make it all fit together without it being either boring or over the top.
Ugh. I hate the middle of the book. Always the hardest part to write. Right now I’m totally having an anxiety attack [...]

Happy Mother’s Day! I’m spending the day with my mom (and my sis and my dad) so I’m pretty excited. We’re going shopping in a really cool neighborhood in Calgary and then going out for dinner so it should be good. Plus, my birthday is coming up on Wednesday so it’s a bit of a [...]
