I’ve been watching a show based on a series of books. Perhaps you’ve heard of…THE WITCHER? Magic and medieval-ish costumes and monsters and a brooding hero equals fun, albeit some nudity, sex, adult language, and a very confusing timeline. Really confusing. Like, it took me three episodes to figure out that we’re moving back… Continue reading Watching THE WITCHER

What I’m Listening to: January 2020
Right now, I’m working on the first draft of book three of The Goblets Immortal series. While I write, I’ve been listening to some pretty awesome music that I thought I should give a mention.

What I’m Reading: January 2020

Mental Illness and the Holidays
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanza, the New Year, Festivus (my spell check recognizes that word, huzzah.)

OCD + clinical depression +… Continue reading Mental Illness and the Holidays
Christmas Movie Bingo
Hey, everyone! I've been thinking about all of the Christmas movies I have watched throughout the years, and was wondering: who else has seen what I've seen?
