Do you ever feel like you’ve gotten bogged down in the muck of your reality? When that happens to me I need a little something to spice up my life. Nothing major, just a minute change. Most of the time I direct this ‘change’ to my environment – my home decor. Honestly, I tend to…
The kids may be back at school but the summer sun, the heat, is still going strong; making it a fitting time for crafts and projects. In as little as one day, the daughter and I added a stunning do-it-yourself bird feeder to the yard that is more than just a bird feeder, it’s an…
School is in session! Or, at least, it’s so close I can practically taste the freedom in my nightly sip of wine. Counting the days…counting the days. In all actuality, I may or may not be so anxious to send my kids back into the daily grind, but several hours of uninterrupted, quiet time to…

Do you love playing games? When I was little, my family didn’t often play games. Although an occasional turn at Clue, or when I was younger yet, Mouse Trap, managed to delight us for an hour or so. Games challenge the mind, inspire team work, and rev up one’s desire for accomplishment. All great things.…
How far do you go to research your stories? I’ve flown across the country, walked forever so that I could hike deep into the dark, stalagmite covered caverns inside of a mountain. But those are stories for another time. Today we’re talking about old, abandoned mines. Gold mines. Mercury mines. Coal mines. Becoming: The Balance…
The RT Booklovers Convention was amazing! Fun, educational, and (slightly) overwhelming. Much sleep followed by coffee was needed in my recharge process. But WOW what a week! RT stands for Romantic Times. Books are not restricted to only romance reads, so don’t worry. Six days. That’s some serious time dedicated to being ‘ON’ for an…

Becoming │The Balance Bringer…it’s been a long time in the making. A very long time. I can still recall, with considerable clarity, the moment I knew what the title of this YA fantasy would be. It was 2010. I was driving down a lone stretch of highway through the California desert. It was night, and it…
