I recently mentioned how easy it was to use Scrivener to create the ebook files for The Demon You Know, and several folks asked me to go into more detail. I am nothing if not cooperative 🙂 So here, for your viewing pleasure, is a video I made of how to set up Scrivener to […]

Tattoos and flaws and anorexia, oh my!
I’m thinking about flaws today. It’s one of the things that I’m having fun with as I go back and look at some of my backlist books. I’m not revising heavily, but it’s fun to be able to fix a few of the flaws that maybe made it through the copyediting/galley process. But what about […]
I'm a publisher! THE DEMON YOU KNOW is up at Amazon!
Faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than electrons on speed…it’s digital publishing! All kidding aside, I had no idea that the short story I posted yesterday would go up so quickly! But I’m so very glad it did. So here’s what I learned since my last post: 1) Amazon processes its content fast. Best […]
Short Stories … Gotta love 'em!
I confess that I wasn’t always a fan of the short story; once I got to know characters I wanted to spend TIME with them. But with age brings wisdom (not that I’m old enough to be that wise) and I’ve developed a love for the shorter format. And I’m so psyched to be part […]

First up, we’re going to do some tweaking to the script for a super-short, ultra low-budget movie (as in, if we break $50 I’ll be […]
The Hunger Games…not so satiating
Over the last couple of days, I’ve finally experienced two things that I’d been anticipating. One, my husband’s birthday dinner at the Brazilian style restaurant, Fogo de Chao. We ate at a similar restaurant in China when we adopted Isabella (where they have a huge salad bar and bring a never-ending stream of meats to […]
Would You Survive The Hunger Games?
I’ve been re-watching Lost lately (I think I mentioned that in a recent blog post), and it’s a lot of fun. But there’s one big problem, and it’s the same problem I run across as I read The Hunger Games with my eldest kiddo (we need to finish this week in time to see the […]
