While I'm writing, there are always a ton of questions that I HAVE to get answers for, so I go on a research spree, finding resources that will hopefully give me more to work with. Even if I don't end up using whatever I learn (and that happens a lot) the process of learning and seeking is a ton of fun. (less)

One of my favorite things to do, in fact, is to sit in a coffeeshop with my pens and notebook and just write. Sometimes I need to write about my life - the things that are frustrating, irritating, annoying, etc. I just have to get it off my chest so I can free my mind for the good stuff. But when I don't know what to write next, I go to the paper pages and figure out what the questions are so I can start to answer them. (less)

National Novel Writing Month – NaNoWriMo

Thank you so much for joining me for the journey to publishing the Blazekeeper of Bowmore House, coming out March 24, 2026, published by Sea Crow Press. I wrote the first draft of the book that would become The Blazekeeper of Bowmore House in November 2018 as part of a program called NaNoWriMo. The program in that form is no longer around, but back in the day, it was the gold standard of a really Read more of this blog post »
