March Wrap-Up & April Goals
I’m having one of those awkward moments where I feel like I got absolutely nothing accomplished all month, even though I still managed a lot. Perhaps it’s because everything that did happen was all toward the first 2/3 of the month (such as trips to Ohio for Cleveland ConCoction and New York City for the…

Where can you find me the next few months? I’ve updated my Events page with my confirmed events for the rest of 2017. I’m always happy to attend conventions as a panelist, so if you know of any that might like to have me on programming, please let me know!

Review: DAILY GRIND (Takeover #4) by Anna Zabo
Disclaimer: I consider the author a friend and have promoted her projects on my blog. However, I purchased this ebook for full price. This novel was sweeter than the others in the series, but certainly no less hot for it. Brian and Rob go through a much more traditional meet-cute and love story, with the…

Review: DUE DILIGENCE (Takeover #3) by Anna Zabo
Disclaimer: I consider the author a friend and have promoted her projects on my blog. However, I purchased this ebook for full price. This next novel ties into the Takeover series by featuring one of the engineers in Sam’s new consulting firm. While it was lovely to be reunited with Eli as a secondary character,…

Review: PRISON MADE OF MIRRORS by Jennifer Loring
If that author’s name sounds familiar, it’s because I interviewed her yesterday about a completely different project! Jennifer is one of the most prolific authors I know, and I was honored to receive an advanced copy of her latest fantasy novella to review. This story debuts today, and I highly recommend snagging a copy of…

Review: JUST BUSINESS (Takeover #2) by Anna Zabo
Disclaimer: I consider the author a friend and have promoted her projects on my blog. However, I purchased this ebook for full price. Probably the best praise I can give this novel is that I meant to read a chapter or two before bed and when I looked up, my Kindle read 100% and it…

Review: TAKEOVER by Anna Zabo
Disclaimer: I consider the author a friend and have promoted her projects on my blog. However, I purchased this ebook for full price. I’ve had this book on my Kindle forever, and while had previously read and greatly enjoyed another novel by Zabo, I wasn’t sure whether my love of her urban fantasy would translate…

February Wrap-Up & March Goals
Whew, this month flew by (and not just because February is a short month). While things continue to be rough and stressful in the larger scheme of things, I’m pleased with what I accomplished in my own small corner of the world, and I’m looking forward to whatever is next. I’d also like to take…

Review: THE EIGHTH by Stephanie M. Wytovich
Disclaimer: The author and I share a publisher for her poetry collections and I consider her a friend. However, I purchased a hardcopy version of this novel for full price. I hate starting reviews with “I don’t usually read this genre, but…” In this case, however, it’s 100% true. I’m not a horror reader (or…

Review: “28 Teeth Later” (a PRISON DAD short) by Cristin Kist & Jeffrey Gritman
Disclaimer: I am friends with the authors of this short story. However, I purchased the ebook version for full price. I have not yet had a chance to read either of the Prison Dad collections that I own, but this short story was a delightful introduction to the world. I was promised ridiculousness, speculative fiction references,…

Holiday Romance Special Part 2: Victory & Mikelos
As promised, the husband and I shared a delicious meal of Indian food in front of the TV last night to celebrate Valentine’s Day. We watched another few episodes of The Grand Tour and then went to bed early. Today actually marks 8 years since we officially started dating! Not because of the holiday, but…

Holiday Romance Special Part 1: Kane & Archer
I’ve been happily married for a few years, and while I could wax poetic about my amazing husband, when it comes to real life, we’re not the most romantic couple. He doesn’t work on Mondays, so our Valentine’s Day plan is to get some take-out Indian food and catch up on the DVR tonight. Honestly,…

Con Report: AWP 2017
I had a great time yesterday spending the day at the Raw Dog Screaming Press booth at AWP 2017 in Washington, DC. While my official book signing time was from 1-3 PM, I ended up enjoying a full day chatting with people who stopped by, answering questions about the press, and talking about my books and…

Review: “When A Child is Born” (Chronicles of St. Mary’s #2.5) by Jodi Taylor
This short story set in the Chronicles of St. Mary’s universe is a great way for a new reader to dip their toe into the series without committing to a full novel. It highlights my favorite trio of time travelers (Max, Peterson, and Markham — with bonus Maj. Guthrie) on a relatively simple mission that…

Review: A THEFT OF MAGIC (Fay of Skye #2) by Cara McKinnon
Disclaimer: I consider the author a friend, and the two of us have worked together to help promote each other’s work as nontraditional authors. I won a hardcopy version of this novel from the author in a random giveaway drawing during a social media launch event. I would absolutely have purchased this novel anyway. Romantic…
