I met Tamsin Silver at my first DragonCon and she and I became fast friends immediately. I’ve read sections of this book in different formats. Heard parts of it in various readings, and talked about it with her over the years. This three part series is a labor of love and it is my extreme…
Lucienne Diver’s DISAPPEARED
I asked Lucienne Diver to write about what drove her to write her new YA thriller, Disappeared, and what she learned writing it. This book is already receiving wide acclaim with none other than Jonathan Maberry saying, ““DISAPPEARED is a wonderfully creepy read! Full of devious twists and filled with characters who are so real you genuinely…
3 Things I Have Learned During This Pandemic (and a freebie)
During this pandemic, I have learned 3 things. I shall now bestow my wisdom. People are stupid. This isn’t a new revelation for me. This is obviously something I have noticed before, but every once in a while it hits me in the head like a two-by-four, and this time it slammed into me like…
Pluck & Cover…Sneak Peek
Available March 5 on Amazon I couldn’t find my penis. I’d last seen it on the nightstand next to my walk-in freezer, but when I emerged in the morning, it wasn’t there. I didn’t need a penis, but I’d had twenty human years with one and I’d gotten used to it. “Mrs. Ross? Are you…
Ghost Money is Worth Your Money
Stephen Blackmoore is a master of noir, and a magician at paranormal noir. His Eric Carter series just keeps getting better and better, and I recommend the series from the first book, Dead Things, to the latest, Ghost Money. One of the things I like most about Eric is that he is a fully realized…
EXCLUSIVE! Interview with Patricia Briggs from DragonCon 2019
New Hints about Sherwood’s Identity! I had the rare and utterly fabulous opportunity to meet with Patty and her equally wonderful trusty assistant Ann during DragonCon. We had a lovely breakfast together and I got to ask some questions. I worked hard to not fangirl. I failed. (Rubs hands together maniacally.) Hey. Whatsup with Sherwood?…

Shattered Bonds Shattered My Heart
Shattered Bonds by Faith Hunter just about shattered my heart. Jane and Bruiser’s relationship morphs beyond sexy into something deep and lasting. Eli, the ever present body guard/warrior/brother is constant and true. (I want to marry Eli when I grow up.) Molly is a soul sister, as we already knew, and Jane’s love for her…

If Buffy Had Married Riley and Had Three Kids, She’d Be Jess Friedman, or, Why I Did My Own Audiobook?
Narrating you own audiobook is such a stupid, egomaniacal, crazy, insane thought that anyone who even considers it should be slapped silly. At least twice. Audiobooks are performances, not recitations. Reclusive pen monkeys dance to the tune of the characters in their heads but we rarely hear the voices out loud. We need actors to…
