I say this because this blog has become huge with a certain group of people lately: people who are searching for asymmetrical bobs. Although definitely a fan of the A-bob, (it’s good for thick, thin, straight or curly hair! It’s always in style! It rocks in the summer!) I can’t really help you. Except to say [...]

A Very Perkifying Email
Posted in Writing on April 28, 2009 | 3 Comments »
Oh, something cool happened the other day! I received an email from Suzanne Vincent of Flash Fiction Online. She said that she was teaching a workshop on writing sci-fi and fantasy for the flash fiction market at a local Con. She asked if she could use “Ray the Vampire” as an example. A good example, [...]

I did it! I booked my first Cup of Comfort for Parents of Children with Special Needs book signing! It’s in my home town during the fair. I’m excited because it was a Big Scary Step and I took it. I also have a few other things in the works, so we’ll see. Anyway, I [...]
A Las Vegas Conversation

Me: What’s with the police? I passed six cop cars on the way to your house. Mason: There was a murder at the convenience store. *points* We all heard it. They still haven’t caught the guy. Let’s talk about books! Let’s talk about books, indeed. I finished reading his, and it was incredible. There were [...]
In Which Phones Are Abhored

I’ve been dragging my feet long enough. Starting in May, I have three months to promote my story in the Cup of Comfort series. I’m torn. I donwanna. But really, I wanna. It feels arrogant and vulnerable to say, “Hi, hello, do you want to interview me? Would you like me to come do a [...]
An asymmetrical bob, people.

Thank goodness that I didn’t Google “asymmetrical bob with bangs” because there would have been gleeful, rolling-on-the-ground hysterics!

Cassiopeia Supernova at www.hubblesite.org. There’s a story by…Ray Bradbury, I think. I read it years ago, and the premise is that when it reaches a certain temperature, people basically go nuts and kill each other. It’s not quite that hot yet, but it’s getting there. You don’t want to be within smacking distance of me [...]

Dolce and Gabbana and the Apocalypse

So family came a-visitin’, and when that happens…we shop. And eat at delicious restaurants. And then shop some more. Not saying that I mind, because that certainly isn’t the case. But let’s get real, people. Something you’ll hear out of my mouth, usually in a joking manner, is, “When the Apocalypse comes…” When the Apocalypse comes, [...]
Today I sang at a funeral.

Because I do things like that. I even did a nice, sweet, funeraly song instead of something haunting and creepy. You’re welcome. I have also been playing Indigo Prophecy today. “I need to hide the body! I need to mop up all of this blood! Augh, however shall I escape the police?!” I have realized [...]
