The first time itContinue reading “Free Book Friday Feb 3: Brrr…”
Free Book Friday Jan 27: Review copies are free books, right?
Why are there no new promos this week? If you are a reader, you might be asking that. Well, not that there is any reason behind it, but most month long promos start on, well, the beginning of the month, so, yeah, I guess that it a good reason.

Terse Verse Tuesday: Poems and Tirades
I like the convenience of eBooks, but they sure do mess up poetry, especially if you want to place pictures along with them. Formatting poetry is difficult enough in a word document. Often each page needs to be made into a new section if you want the text to be in a different configuration, butContinue reading “Terse Verse Tuesday: Poems and Tirades”

Terse Verse Tuesday: Poems and Tears
I made my beta readers cry. When I wrote the final two chapters of my trilogy, I admit I did tear up a bit. Chalk it up to investing two years with my characters and trying to come up with a fitting ending to a story that creates a satisfying conclusion. When I received theContinue reading “Terse Verse Tuesday: Poems and Tears”
Music Monday Jan. 9: Me
There is a radio show on CBC here in Canada that occasionally does a feature called SYNTH: Songs You Need To Hear. Now, I can’t say to someone, “You’ll like this song” (or book for that matter) because I can’t presume that others will share my taste in music (or books), so it is saferContinue reading “Music Monday Jan. 9: Me”
