Updates and Stuff

I’ve been getting a constant stream of emails (and vague, but semi-hilarious death threats, on where I am in NSI and how soon we can expect it. I thought I’d give a little update and, I dunno, dash hopes or give hope? Not sure which this is going to do. I’m sure you’ll tell me(…)

By Leaps and Bounds We Move Forward

Yes, I do mean our election in the USA–gay marriage, gay congress members, gay senate members(OMG I’m proud of my country!)–but I also mean the LGBT-reading community.

Say no to Doxxing

I’m going to make this really short and sweet. Remember when The Site That Shall Not Be Named started posting personal information about reviewers, including their pictures etc?

You’ll recognize him from both Chris’s stumblingoverchaos blog (check out the naughty santa section for covers) and many of the covers of various novels. I’d call him the Fabio of this decade, but he’s way more than a gorgeous face and stunning physique. Mr.(…)

It’s Friday the 13th of July and I Have Bad News

There is no delicate way to say this, so I’ll be hiding under my desk after you read it. I just threw out my entire progress on Not So Innocent. 60k words and I couldn’t do it. This, ultimately, means that I have to push back the date of release. But it also means that(…)

Notes of the Kindred–A Request From Laddie

Laddie from Scent Pig Fame has asked me to post this here. As a writer with a character with bipolar and over the course of my interviews and research with people dealing with bipolar, I was excited and honored to post this request. I hope many of you will share your stories.  Project Notes of(…)

Fat-hate, Fiction, and Silencing–A Guest Post by Emma

Another Installment of the Reader Guest Blog Posts. Welcome Emma! Recently another Goodreads member, whom I’ll call Q, raised some interesting issues around my condemnation of author Scott Sherman because of the fat-hating language in First You Fall (2008).
