Hey guys, After tearing off the bandaid yesterday, I might as well tear off another one. Though, in fairness, this one’s healed up pretty good. In fact, the event inspiring this poem set off an eye-opening snowball effect. Here goes: Betrayed me the moment you had the chance to..never to turn back to me….Am I… Read more

Hey everybody! Hope you all made it safely into the new year, survive the holiday dramas and are able to stick to those resolutions! Here’s hoping I do… So, a few weeks ago, I had a crazy idea. Yes, one of many. (Diana… ssshhhh) As those that follow my madness, boring as it is, know… Read more

We’ve all been there. It’s the holidays. You’re lazy. Wish you could stay in bed and cuddle with a good book and tub of ice cream instead of dressing up, going out, and dealing with… humans. Because let’s face it, we’re old enough to have learned the perfect Christmas, or any holiday exists only in… Read more

Hey guys! Everyone all set for the holidays? To be honest, I’m not in a festive mood right now. Not that we ever celebrate at home. Even so, you get sucked in by the atmosphere surrounding you. This year… not so much, though. That said, I did get gifts for some friends. And I’m going… Read more

Hey guys! It’s finally finished! The piece I commissioned is ready! AND I created a new page to show it – and others – as well as post excerpts from my books! Ugh, I know, I know, enough with exclamations already. But… but… butT, I’m EXCITED!! Okay, I swear, I’m done now. Go, check it… Read more

I’m back! Did you miss me? (Don’t blame me, I watched Sherlock last night!) Now, here’s the thing: I got infected. That’s right, the monster that is the common cold has sunk its claws into me. Hurray…. BUT! Not why I’m writing this post. The reason for that is simple. Diana Ferris finally is reading… Read more

Hey guys, Thought I’d let you all know, I’m working on a few short stories. A few of which may or may not be added to the prequel once I’m done. Not sure yet, since they’ll be mostly character development and add little to nothing to the overall plot. Why am I working on something… Read more

All right, guys. Here’s the thing: most of you might have already noticed: I’m a huge nerd. Huge! I love Movies, Music, TV Shows. I go berserk over gemstones, and I can research until my fingers bleed. I can gush over God knows whatever strikes me at that moment for hours on end. That said:… Read more

What’s up, Doc? Yeah, I’m not done yet! Like I said, making up for being gone. And thus begins author bashing, ahem – I meant – promoting take two. Like reading romance? Enjoy funny characters? Or, plots that dig into the darkest parts of human nature? Are you a Heavy Metal fan? Boy, have I… Read more

Hello Nerds! Sick of me yet? No? Good! Because I’m not done nerding out for the day just yet! What more is there? Weeell… One of my fellow authors, of course! The one and only T.E. Hodden. Now, I’ll be the first to admit: it’s fun to think of writing in different genres, it really… Read more

Hey everybody! Sorry, I know it’s been a few days. I wasn’t feeling too good. Today is the first day that I’m actually feeling not weighed down! Honestly, the flu is going around, but that’s not what hit me. I’ve had this weird headache, that switches between intense pain and fuzzy nothingness. Like my brain’s… Read more

Hear ye, hear ye. Bookworms of all walks of life, I have an announcement to make! In my last post, I told you all about Emmie’s book coming out on the 30th of November, remember? Did you mark your calendars? Yeah? Well, here’s the thing: self-publishing can be kinda a pain in the rear, and… Read more

Hello, bookish peeps! Yup, me again! Do you love romance? Do you love contemporary romance? Do you have a secret – not so secret – crush on your boss? Want to read a book that’ll make you laugh? Or more in the mood to cry? Want something that’ll put you through the wringer, only to… Read more

Right on the heels of my last post: speaking of secrets… I should’ve kept my mouth shut! Honestly… Didn’t I just say there were things … nah, you know what? This is on me. My big mouth ran away with me, and I sent Diana my poems, from back in the day. Now, I’ve got… Read more

Hey guys! First off, a word of warning: this post will be a giant brag, and the ultimate fangirl gone wild kinda thing. Yes, it’s dedicated to one of my crazy friends: Diana Ferris. You guessed it, the one I already gushed about in my Force of Nature ramblings. Remember I told you guys the… Read more

All right, time for some serious tough love talk. First off, I have to say: without this woman I would’ve stopped writing a long time ago. That said, fair warning: she’s a hard-ass. Who am I talking about? That’s easy: my editor, Katie-bree Reeves. Woman saved me more times than I can count, but don’t… Read more

Let’s see here … Oh, you stuck around? YAY! Well, I say that’s earned me bragging rights. And the first victim of my gloating? The one and only: Diana Ferris.  Check it out: https://dailyshenanigansbuzz.wordpress.com/2019/10/23/the-tales-of-an-internet-ghost/?fbclid=IwAR0a9jOqNJAzKHiX6JZcT-klWprivXC5xsvEgx5dCsdTn7MiWjG4ZTDqIhI  Not only did she publish a short story entitled “Finding Pride”, the sweet and heart-wrenching story of the girl scared to… Read more

Here goes … I’ve decided to kick things off with a little time travel. So, buckle up and make sure you have a baggy ready in case the nausea hits!  Sidestepping the boring recap, I’ll just say this: if you have jumped right to my blog, it might be best to take a little detour… Read more

Hi everyone!  I know, it’s been a while, but… life happens… and not in a fun way!  ANYWAY!  I’m back with a review!  So, here’s the thing, my editor recommended this box set to me. Which I couldn’t get my hands on because Amazon loathes me (nothing new, it’s a long story that I will… Read more

Hey Folks! I figured it was about time to give you all an update. So, here goes: I ended up adding a TON! Honestly; I hadn’t intended for it to be this extensive, but it makes sense. For one, it negates the need to scrap one of the POVs like my last editor suggested. Another… Read more
