I’m back, my friends, and with less … force than my last post. As the title suggests, it hasn’t just been raining, it has been pouring. Both literally and figuratively. Literally because yesterday we went from weather so dry my yard is crunchy to a true all-day rainy day. While we definitely needed it, thatContinue reading “On Raining and Pouring”

As the Dust Settles
The Black Feather Press crew has another event down and my head is still spinning a little. Not in a bad way. The Merritt Square Mall Con was certainly an experience. I’m extremely grateful for the attention we received and the connections we made. Sales weren’t as good as for the book fest but IContinue reading “As the Dust Settles”
When the Nerves Hit All at Once
I really thought I wasn’t going to get nervous about my second in-person book event. Wrong. So wrong. All the nerves hit me yesterday and persist today. I’m attempting to convert it into kinetic energy and make absolutely sure the Black Feather Press team is ready for the Merritt Square Mall Con tomorrow. I haveContinue reading “When the Nerves Hit All at Once”
Success and Gratitude
I woke up today still riding an almost indescribable high from my first in-person book event yesterday. I went into it not knowing what to expect and came out of it absolutely floored at the great response patrons had to my table. I made back the book fest registration fee in the first half-hour. EvenContinue reading “Success and Gratitude”

If you’ve stopped by here before, you may have seen me mention a mysterious “novella project” that has been running in the background of all my other books and releases. Now, I know industry dictates that one should wait until release time and do title reveals andContinue reading “The Sevina Gate project”
Black Feather Press LLC
My friends, I am extremely proud to be making this post. When I was young, I insisted that I didn’t write for exposure. I had no intentions of publishing or even finding readers. The older I got and the more I just kept writing anyway … it became clear that it wasn’t true. I didContinue reading “Black Feather Press LLC”
Mercury Retrograde Blues?
It’s coming, my friends. I don’t know about you, but I know I’m already feeling the push-back and we don’t actually hit Retro until the 14th. Over the years, I have learned to identify the pre-shadow time leading into Mercury Retrograde as a tendency to socially retreat and find comfort in my writing. I tendContinue reading “Mercury Retrograde Blues?”
