Life Right Now

Between work, kids, husband, dog, house, birthday parties.... (neverending list) ... I have roughly 1-2 hours a day for my writing.

I use 30-45 minutes on promoting my most recent novel, THE TANGIBLES. I was blessed to have my debut this year in the traditional publishing world, but the world of marketing is a tough field. I reach out to readers every day for reviews/feedback, as reviews are essen Read more of this blog post »

I read this book very quickly, like most of Colleen’s books. It definitely was a page turner once we met Saint. I thought the beginning was a little slow and a lot of venting. A lot of surprises and a lot of crazy things happened. I kept reading, won ...more

Neighborhood Watch by Britney King

I normally need several days to read a psychological thriller, but this one kept me on the edge from start to finish. Nora was a very likable protagonist and the whole HOA vibe was very believable. I was very satisfied with the ending.

Slow beginning. The middle of this book was the best and got me flipping pages to find out the truth. But I was ultimately I let down by the ending except for what happened to Dex. Glad he got that ending. The writing was very descriptive and the ove ...more

The beginning of this book read like a psychological thriller. An unreliable MC trying to determine if she's losing her mind or something more sinister is at work. Once the mother showed up, I knew it was more than just her brain, and something horri ...more

"This is NOT a picture book!" was thoroughly entertaining and more stimulating than some picture books with actual pictures. The different fonts, lightning effects, and rhyme made it fun and unpredictable. I can definitely see first-graders being par ...more

Serum was a fun and adventurous story. As a fan of superhero and serum stories, I was immediately drawn in, especially because of the high stakes. Whenever the story focused on Mia, I was deeply interested and rooting for her. The chapters that cente ...more

“More and more, she had difficulty enduring people who denied the simple fact that yes, some days were to be seized, to be won, to be lived to the fullest, days like the opening miles of a marathon, where one was filled with gusto and energy and the early, jittery stages of possibility, of believing one could simply run forever, but that in all reality, more days were like the middle miles, strenuous but more tedious, more foot-to-pavement repetition of the same, always the same, or those days, especially as one aged, that resembled the final miles, the body fatigue, the mental weariness, the fight for enough air, the desire, ultimately, to grit one’s teeth and just get through it, to just reach the finish line.”
