W-wait! Did You Hear Something?

...I think it came from the boiler room! Okay, enough teasing/weirding around. The anthology my story's in is available for pre-order from Amazon: Tales From the Boiler Room. That's the e-book version. Print should be available soon as well 🙂 There are eight horror/weird fantasy/dark fantasy stories by different authors--all with touches of humor.

Tea and Book Pairings

THE NIGHT CIRCUS could be paired with a caramel-flavored tea (perhaps Tazo's vanilla caramel chai for a bit of a kick.) A good combination for a cool, crisp evening, both book and tea evoke a sense of richness and well-being. A STUDY IN CHARLOTTE would go nicely with a cuppa English breakfast. Both are a… Continue reading Tea and Book Pairings

And I know how you all hate Mondays. *insert collective groan here* Here's a lame-butt attempt at a drawing to cheer us all up: *insert collective screams here* Yeah. Nothing done for Camp NaNowriMo.… Continue reading Monday Disguised as Friday
