Today, I’ve stopped by Memos from Mimi to talk about Runaway Choices and what it means to me. I hope you will stop by and say hello! In other news, RUNAWAY CHOICES is being received phenomenally well and I’m excited to have some things already cropping up on radar. It’s safe to say I am [...]

It should be amazing and [...]

The time is drawing near for the upcoming release of DRAGONS FOREVER.

But I have a problem that I’d like your help with! See, the series will be named DRAGONS FOREVER… but the first book, needs a name! And not just any name… the name needs to appeal to fourth and fifth graders from the shelf of a library/book store.

The evolution of a manuscript (MS) can be a downright nasty process. Serious though. What starts out as an awesome beyond awesome idea can eventually turn into a great book… it’s the getting to the end that makes it a great book that is a bit nasty. Right now, I am struggling with The Rings of [...]

You’ll can blame @BlanchardAuthor for this one! For the record… I never back down from a challenge, but I know NOTHING about Battlestar Galactica. I know tons about Harry Potter… so maybe this will be mildly entertaining.

Mildly.

But I think my graphic rocks! And yes, that was me that created this graphic… She can write and has mad PhotoShop Skilz… Haha… Ahem…

Maybe if you press it too, the world will stop and all will be well. *cue crickets* Yeah, right. So, have you ever had that moment when everything seems to be going way too fast (for goodness sake, how is it already almost February?!) and you need to hit the “Panic Button” so you can [...]

No worries, I’m not talking infectious diseases here… nor the common cold virus. I’m talking about YOU.

Ask yourself, “Am I contagious?”

Now, ponder what exactly this could mean to you. To me, it means a lot more then one would think. To be contagious… well… is absolutely and completely awesome in this context!

Recently, I was told that my attitude was contagious. This is one of the highest complements I could’ve received, but with it also comes a lot of responsibility. If you’re being happy and excited about something, it’s easy to see the contagious spirit as a complement. However, what happens when I am upset and grumpy? Will that attitude become as contagious as the last? [...read more...]

Welcome George H. Sirois to the Ellipses of Eisley… I hope you won’t trip over them as you walk to your seat.

Let me tell my audience a bit about you before we start… George is the author of Excelsior, a young adult / science-fiction novel. This is his second novel, but Excelsior has been eighteen (18… no I didn’t type that wrong) years in the making! So we are going to dive in and find out a little more about George and about his new novel….
EXCELSIOR.

A lot of people are asking me how I feel about my ipad a week (or more later)… Am I having buyer remorse? Do I wish I would have gone for a cheaper ereader? What are my thoughts.

Well, if you saw my vlog below, you’ll know that I was under a spell. In fact, I’m pretty sure the air in the apple store is tainted with sparkles and dreams… and when you go in, they fill your eyes and well… there is not much hope for your pocketbook.

Note to self: Leave pocketbook at home next time. [...read more...]

Enjoy the show… don’t laugh too hard.

And yes, I am in a t-shirt… don’t judge me.
