For an author, does life exist outside of writing? That’s the topic this week in the MFRA 52-week blog challenge. As much as I love writing, my answer is a definite yes, there is life outside of writing. Writing is one of the most important parts of my life, though not as important as my…

Family – Fangs and Fists: Haylen #weekendwritingwarriors #8sunday #paranormalromance
The WeWriWa blog hop encourages writers to share 8-10 sentences from one of their stories. I’ve been posting excerpts from my paranormal romance Fangs and Fists: Haylen. Last week I left off with Haylen and the witch Maddy on the run from the demon masters who have taken over Detroit. This week I skip ahead…
Who’s Worth it? #MFRWauthor
Who would you kill or die to have dinner with? That is the question this week on the MFRA 52 Week Blog Challenge. For me, this one is short and simple. Other than possibly a deceased loved one, I truly can’t think of anyone I would kill or die to have dinner with. How about…
Bucket Lists, Goals, or Everyday Living? #MFRWauthor

The Shower System #MFRWauthor

No Reminder Required – Fangs and Fists: Haylen #weekendwritingwarriors #8sunday #paranormalromance
In the WeWriWa blog hop, writers post 8-10 sentences from one of their stories. This week, I’m sharing another snippet from Fangs and Fists: Haylen. Last week, Haylen awoke after surgery that relieved him of a tracker implanted physically and magically in his spine by the demon masters. The witch, Maddy, helped him through the…
Put Yourself in the Story by Becoming Someone Else #MFRWauthor
Writing a story is sort of like being one actor in a play with many characters. You have to put yourself in the story by becoming each character. Often that means placing aside your personal beliefs and emotions so that you can think like characters who are completely different than yourself. If every character was…
