Despite early Stray sightings, the official release date is here!!! Okay, technically, it’s June 1st, but I don’t care! It’s out and I’m so excited for her! Check out Rachel Vincent’s debut book. Faythe Sanders likes to pretend she’s a normal college co-ed, but that’s only half the truth. It’s the other half that…

Monday Poetry Train/A Man Like Any Other
A Man Like Any Other He closes eyes made gritty By stolen hours of sleep. He=s solid only–in realms Of shadows and unspoken despair. He blindly reaches out To grasp what he cannot see, To find purchase in another night Spent upright, in a lone kitchen chair. To the outside…
Stray Sighting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My CP’s book, Stray, has been sighted at the local Barnes and Noble!!!! It’s early! Okay, I had a couple of emails asking about this book and I thought I’d chime in with the fact that Rachel and I didn’t work together on this one. I came in on book three in the Werecat series and in the…
Store Snark
Celise asked if I would put the Story design on posters and I thought that was an excellent idea. So, I spent the morning creating some new designs with that inspiring message. TIP:I learned that it’s better to do JPG graphics on these bigger sized images. Had all kinds of trouble trying to create, manipulate…

To those who have been with me since the beginning, this will be familiar. But I’ve always kind of liked this one, so I thought I’d post it again for the Poetry Train passengers. 🙂 Self-Appointed Paragon She lords it over every gathering As if hers is the example to uphold. She speaks with fat…
Who You Lookin’ At?
I’m messing with my theme. No, dirty mind, not that one. Thought I could use a new look–or an old one in this case. And those big eyes? Mine. And yeah, they can see you…
Real Writer
Okay, I’ve gone on and on about how the rewrite stage is my favorite. I’m officially past the halfway mark in my book and my plan is to be done by the end of May. (Not sure why I pick the most difficult kid/school month to do these things, but I never seem to pick…
Random Sharing
I’ve been tagged a few times and while I loved getting the thinking blogger award from Heather, I’m having trouble putting together five of my favorite thinking blogs–simply because most of them have already been tagged. She’s one of them–I love Weekend Zen! 🙂 But I can do this one from Lyn. Eight Random Facts…
