Please welcome Darlene to the blog! Before I came up with the horror-movie loving heroine in my paranormal mystery serial, all I knew about Bruce Campbell was that he was a cult film actor who has a thing for the word groovy. Seriously. His Twitter handle is @GroovyBruce. I took my daughter’s sage […]

Irene Preston: Gratuitous Sex, Quantum Entanglement, and My Love Affair with Jack White
Please welcome Irene Preston to the blog! Gratuitous Sex, Quantum Entanglement, and My Love Affair with Jack White Think those are just random words I used to lure you in? Wrong! I’m going to discuss all of them. And they will all be relevant (I hope). Let’s start with the gratuitous sex bit. […]
From screenplay to novel: Aaron de Orive on the creation of Bladesinger.
I want to talk about three of my favorite works of fiction. The first one is my favorite children’s book, The Wizard of Oz. Now like most kids, I saw the movie with Judy Garland before I read the book. It’s one of my favorite films as well. In fact, one of my earliest […]
Up to the Bedroom Door: Richard Preston on Sex in YA/NA (and a free book giveaway!)
Please welcome Richard Preston to the blog! Sex as a HOT topic? Always. Sex as a topic in YA and NA? A controversial topic, perhaps, especially in the YA realm. My steampunk adventure series, The Chronicles of the Pneumatic Zeppelin, is a fun, swashbuckling, old Saturday-afternoon-matinee kind of story and is handled as Young Adult (YA)/New Adult […]
There’s nothing like a Cowboy! Jodi Linton tells us why Cowboys are special
Please welcome Jodi Linton to the blog! “Courage is being scared to death, and still saddling up anyways”-John Wayne This is such good advice, and not just for cowboys. It applies to the ups and downs of being a writer. Tired minds, sore fingers won’t stop a writer. We put our chins up and we […]
Sylvia McDaniel on Why Love Isn’t Only For The Young (plus a giveaway!)
Please Welcome Sylvia McDaniel to the blog! I’m in the final editing stages of my new Christmas novella. This one is a little different. I went back to my best-selling western series, The Burnett Brides that I had written years ago. The series set in the old west is about a mother who has three […]
Lyndi Lamont on Our Continuing Fascination with Pirates
Please welcome Lyndi Lamont to the blog! Pirate Rules What accounts for our fascination with pirates? I’m talking about the 16th & 17th century variety. Is it the clothing? Knee boots and tight breeches and the white shirts with billowing sleeves. Or is the swagger of a man with a sword in his belt and […]
MJ Fredrick On Her Love for Post-apocalyptic Entertainment
Please welcome MJ Fredrick to the blog! My husband and I LOVE entertainment with post-apocalyptic themes. I think the first book we both fell in love with in the genre was The Stand, which remains my favorite Stephen King book. Good vs. Evil, man vs. man, though there are supernatural elements at play. We’re mad […]
It’s All about the Guys by Natalie J. Damschroder
Please welcome Natalie J. Damschroder to the blog! Before LOST came on the air, I watched hardly any TV at all. Since then, however, I’ve become a true couch potato. And while I’ve loved (and devoured) female-driven shows like Gilmore Girls, Veronica Mars, and Revenge, when a show grabs me—really grabs me, so that I’m […]
Finding Inspiration and Pyramids in Belize by Loucinda McGary (and a free book giveaway!)
Please welcome Loucinda McGary to the blog! Where do you get your ideas? This is a question I’m asked quite often, and I always answer honestly, “Everywhere.” In truth, I never know what might turn into a story idea. I might be inspired by a piece of music, a picture, a scrap of conversation, just […]
