I love storms, but I freaking HATE spring storms in Oklahoma. I’m not good with tornado warnings and anyone who has read this blog for a while, knows it. See attached post at bottom. <g> So, I’m into my fourth obsessive hour watching the colorful, creeping blobs onscreen when the newscaster says everything is calming. Doesn’t sound…

Rogue Has Arrived and Writerly Happenings
Rogue is on the shelves! Okay, so cats don’t always land on their feetI know that better than most. Since rejoining the Pride, I’ve made big decisions and even bigger mistakes: the kind paid for with innocent lives. As the first and only female enforcer, I have plenty to prove to my father, the Pride,…
No One Heard Her Scream by Jordan Dane
A friend and fellow OKRWA member’s debut novel is due out tomorrow!!!!!!! There is a ton of buzz about this book and she has back to back releases for books two and three, so I wouldn’t want anyone to miss out. Check out everything about Jordan Dane HERE. Doesn’t this sound incredible? No One Heard…
Off and Running!
It’s a holiday and I have a lot of family coming over today. They plan to celebrate this new success in my writer’s journey and okay, there’s the birthday thing tomorrow. My agent (And yes, I’m sooo getting off on saying that!) is already proving to be the go-getter I knew she was. She…
NEWS!!
There’s a reason I haven’t been sleeping well. I’m going to share a quick story. I issued a challenge on this blog and had two winners. One gave me the Norse Gods at Starbucks challenge and one gave me this one. “Write about someone finding a way to track down serial porn spammers and exacting revenge.” Neither were…
Counting Sheep Doesn’t Work
Ever have one of those nights when your mind is spinning like a turbo engine and you simply can’t shut it off? You’re supposed to get out of bed instead of tossing and turning. So, I did. Watched TV, then crawled back into bed in the early hours only to experience maximum takeoff thrust! I could…
Networking Among Friends
Had a full weekend and I’m a little tired, but I’m working. The weekend fired me up. So, I’ve been outlining my three Nocturne Bites ideas then tonight I plan to jump back into BOAA–the second in my UF series. I really feel this book is going to flow faster and better than the…
Weekend Quote Early
“We must have courage to bet on our ideas, to take the calculated risk, and to act. Everyday living requires courage if life is to be effective and bring happiness.” Unknown. I’m giving you the weekend stuff early because OKRWA has a special event planned. They’re flying in an editor and agent for a little one on…
Rinda-Pitt Edited!
So, Heather had this goofy hair mixer thing on her blog and I jotted over to play a minute. I did it ALL WRONG. However, I did make Gena Showalter spew and got asked out on a date after sharing with Heather–so it wasn’t a waste of time. 😉 BTW, uh Gena’s blog should come with…
So… Which One?
The idea for a very creepy and stomach churning story has been bothering me for quite a while now. Today, I sat down and pounded out 1500 words on it. Had planned to work on BOAA, but I’m also wanting to do more in the short story markets again. There is something to be said…
