I say pseudo-fanfic because while all of the characters who appear in the story are of my own creation, and are considered part of shall we say the "established extended universe" of kinda-canon, this is not my setting. (Also, a character mentioned is not mine.) But the author enjoys seeing me poke in her world, … Continue reading Writing Excerpt: Pseudo-Fanfiction

I was provided a copy of this book free of charge from the author in exchange for my honest review. I will admit, Marvel and Tom Hiddleston have made me perk up and pay attention when Loki's name is mentioned around me. Even apart from the Avengers movies, I've enjoyed learning more about the original … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: LOKI BOUND by Charity Ayres
I'm jumping back into a topic I was talking a lot about earlier, but it's been a while, so now you've forgotten how manically I was posting about Pokémon there for a while. ...no? You didn't forget? Well poop. Sorry? In any event, this is something I came across back when I was relaunched into … Continue reading Memory vs. Reality, IRL Edition
I've always liked the idea of a day planner, but I've never been very good at keeping one. Even when I was in high school and they gave you one every year to track your assignments, I did the bare minimum with it, and always wanted to do more and didn't manage to do it. … Continue reading Finding a Method for My Madness
I picked this book up (I'm pretty sure from BookBub) for free sometime recently. I'm not surprised, honestly. Some of these books I look at the cover and I have no memory of the plot summary or why I decided it was a good idea to get it. I really do try not to just … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: ROYAL by Winter Renshaw
I don't have any of the original posts or quotes that went with this, but this has been bouncing around my brain and my Facebook for a while now, and I CANNOT LET IT GO UNDEFENDED. I CAN'T. So one of my friends on Facebook said (or shared someone who said, I can't remember) that … Continue reading Until the Very End, Always
I'm fairly certain I picked this up as a freebie somewhere along the line, though I don't remember where or when. (This happens to me a lot. It's what I get for randomly downloading free books constantly.) Despite the market being super saturated with young adult dystopian stories, I'm still game to read most of … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: THE INSTITUTE by Kayla Howarth
So in my quest to be a more-published author, I routinely wander off and look for places accepting submissions. I'm not fantastic at short stories, but I've gotten a bit better and it's easier to find places accepting those than trying to find somewhere your little niche book will fit in. But here is the … Continue reading Chasing the Elusive “Idea”
I can't recall when I picked up this book, but reading the description as a refresher told me why I would have clicked a download link. Chastity O'Neill has grown up in a family of strong men, her father and four brothers all volunteer firefighters. (And really, any wife/mother in that situation is just as … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: ONE OF THE GUYS by Kristan Higgins
(Author's note: I'm writing this just before I leave on my weekend trip, and I'm on very little sleep and only have half of an idea of what I was thinking when I started this post. Sorry if it loses focus!) One of the more commonly asked questions I see floating around the writing community … Continue reading Background Music
