Memes, Dean Winchester, and coffee spark joy.

I disappeared for a bit to reorganize my life. It's February and I still have my Christmas tree up, for what it's worth.

Just kidding. I never took it down from last year.

Currently working on finishing up the Solitary series with two more installments. I'll have more updates soon.

I'm happy to start reviewing for romance authors again, though I may be slow to start as I catch up on everything. If I've reviewed for you before and you have new work you'd like reviewed, shoot me a message.

Distinguishing yourself in any genre these days can be tricky, because of the many changes to the publishing world and the ways we access it. For my part, I write romantic suspense with a strong and fairly aggressive woman, which is an uphill battle in a sea of alpha male stories that dominate (teehee) the market right now. My approach thus far has been to appeal to those who might be looking for something a little different!

In that regard, Goodreads is an excellent place to find or further define your market and get to know your readers. As an indie author, I would go so far as to say Goodreads has been the best place for me to meet other authors and bloggers, get valuable reader feedback, and make new friends! Hope this is helpful.

Best,

Review: Crow (Boston Underworld #1) by A. Zavarelli

Crow (Boston Underworld, #1) Crow by A. Zavarelli

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


This book. Gaah.

It’s true what I saw on another review: I started reading it and I. Couldn’t. Stop. I couldn’t even tell you what happened around me in the 6 hours I was reading it. Hopefully nothing crucial?


Lachlan Crow is a potential heir to the throne of the Irish mafia in Boston. He’s described as quiet and reserved, but make no mistake-he’s calcu Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by Melissa Copeland  (?)

This is how you get yourself killed, my brain chastised. Keep hanging around with killers drinking booze.

Still, it beat being sober with them.”
Melissa Copeland, Solitary

“I reached out tentatively and shook her hand. “Sorry I pointed a gun at your brother,” I started, trying hard to sound sincere. “...Ah...nope, I can’t say that with a straight face.”
Melissa Copeland, Solitary

“Every time you get mad you go stomping off like an angry child. Afraid to lose an argument?” he accused, invading my space so that we were toe-to-toe.

“I didn’t lose anything,” I seethed. His chest was nearly touching mine, eyes blazing with the very same anger that I felt. There was no reason for him to be so upset with me. Other than when I’d punched him.

Okay, that was probably a reasonable source of anger.”
Melissa Copeland, Solitary

“Early religions were like muddy ponds with lots of foliage. Concealed there, the fish of the soul could splash and feed. Eventually, however, religions became aquariums. Then hatcheries. From farm fingerling to frozen fish stick is a short swim.”
Tom Robbins, Skinny Legs and All

“Pity is an emotion that can get you killed. The only thing more dangerous is blind hate, and maybe love.”
Laurell K. Hamilton, Guilty Pleasures

“Dip a slice of bread in batter. That's September: yellow, gold, soft and sticky. Fry the bread. Now you have October: chewier, drier, streaked with browns. The day in question fell somewhere in the middle of the french toast process.”
Tom Robbins, Skinny Legs and All

“Stupidity isn't punishable by death. If it was, there would be a hell of a population drop.”
Laurell K. Hamilton, The Laughing Corpse

“i am mine.
before i am ever anyone else's.”
