Cover Reveal: Owned by the Alpha

I've written before about how I enjoy anthology calls, and when the most recent call came out from Evernight Publishing, I jumped at the chance. It's my first paranormal and I have to confess to being a little nervous about it, but I was thrilled when it was accepted. And then I found out some of the other amazing authors who I'll be sharing book space with and I was floored! I'm so honoured to be part of this terrific group. So without further ado, I give you a cover!

2017 can only be better, right?


We're on the cusp of a new year and looking back, 2016 had its ups and downs, though it frequently seemed that there were more downs than ups. That means, though, that next year will be better. And I'm going to do the best I can to make it better.

I've talked about New Year's Resolutions before and if you're anything like me, they barely make it into the second week of January before something happens to throw them off. For example, I sat down at the computer tonight intending to transcribe so...

Productive Procrastination

Image from chibird.com

So right now, I have an important thing to do for the EDJ. And instead, I'm feeling the urgent need to catch up on Facebook and Twitter, check out new types of swag to giveaway, and blog. In short, I'm procrastinating.

The lovely cartoon above sums me up perfectly. I start with the best intentions, but somewhere along the way my plans get derailed.

I've always known I was a procrastinator, but I still struggle to understand why. With this particular report I have to do, I'...

Revitalization



When an urban area becomes old and run down, nobody wants to go there. Residents and businesses leave, and shadier characters begin to move in. Buildings fall into disrepair from neglect. Kind of like my writing career.

But if some enterprising souls come along and begin to work on the area again -- slowly, one project at a time -- it breathes new life into the community. As more improvements are made, more people return to the area and soon it's a vibrant destination rather than something to...

The Joys (and Pains) of Pets

You don't really need to see that screen in front of you.
Having a pet is a wonderful thing. They don't care if you've put on extra weight or complain that the dishes aren't done or bitch at you for getting the wrong type of cereal. As long as you feed them and take care of their poop, they'll love you unconditionally.

I prefer my pets cuddly. We tried fish once but that was a disaster (other than providing inspiration for my first book). Give me a dog or cat any day. I love it when the cat cur...

Meanwhile, In the Wilds of Ontario...


This blog post is brought to you from the wilds of northern Ontario. No, not really. Thank God for scheduling blog posts!

As this post goes live, I will be with hubby and the family visiting friends at their cottage. There is no internet, wi-fi, or even electricity. I'll let you know if I survive.

Ever tried to unplug for a while? I hate not having a device in my hands, even if I'm only playing a game or reading. I don't have to be online, but the thought of no power is freaky. It's been a long...

Just Keep Writing



I had to hang my head in shame when I realized it's been more than six months since I updated my blog. Yikes!

I'm happy to say that while I didn't have a great start to the year, I've been writing more consistently since April. My alter ego had a story accepted to an anthology which was exciting since it's been a long time since I had a release.

I decided to really examine my goals and see if I can take my career in a different direction. As a result, I've been querying editors and agents. I've...
