Thank you Garth Brooks for the fantastic song/blog title. Some of you know that I've been struggling for quite sometime with this new book. It's opening 10k has been re-written four times now because I couldn't find my voice and didn't feel comfortable with the POV. Turns out, it's hard leaving my comfort zone and … Continue reading Friends in low places

Stalky McStalkerson
Welcome to Friday and the ridiculous made up holiday that is Feb 14th. Yeah, I'm not a fan. Been a funny old week, hence the blog title. I'm not going to elaborate but I imagine you can all figure it out. Work started properly on the new book. It has no title. It's a tad … Continue reading Stalky McStalkerson

And you all know the joy when my daughter told me I could have GLITTER on my book covers. 🙂 As it stands now, two of … Continue reading Everything should sparkle
It was Crashbyte …
This morning I opened a file called 'Crashbyte' - that's what Vaporbyte was always supposed to be called. Book 12: Crashbyte. Somewhere as I was following the story, (and it happened pretty fast - two chapters in) I realized Crashbyte wasn't going to be book 12. It may not ever be an anything. That's okay, … Continue reading It was Crashbyte …
