  • A Year in Reading: 2023

    Once again, I set my Goodreads annual reading challenge goal at 50 books. And once again, I blew past that number sometime in March. Here’s the final total: A slight decline from last year, and definitely not the insanity that was 2021, but that’s because I’m back to hitting a balance between reading and writing.…

  • Con Report: Indies Invade Philly 2023

But two years ago, I discovered a certain author, binge-read the majority of…

    Since I finally wrote “the end” on Earth & Water on August 1, the rest of the month was focused on the boring admin side of officially launching myself in the self-publishing world. Most of it isn’t very fancy, beyond being able to say I am officially a Maryland small business owner, but I am…
