Look at what my lovely daughter, Holly, bought me as a "love you and thinking of you" gift. You all know I am a huge Snoopy fan, and these will look lovely on my tree this year. So... when is the acceptable time to put up the Christmas tree? (Asking for a friend :) )

#TinyTeaser - my new release this month is Devon's story from the Assassin's Alley series. If you remember from the epilogue of book 2, he got a disturbing message from his online friend. Finding him wasn't going to be easy, thanks to online anonymity. Here's a wee snippet - sorry, not so wee,

Months ago I backed a Kickstarter for the artist Slew - he runs a non-profit art studio in NYC. I could never hope to visit, but I did purchase his Primordial book through the Kickstarter. It arrived. I'm so happy with it. If you're keen on learning more about him,

#ThrowbackThursday - As you know by now I'm writing Apollo's story for the Gods series - it will be my December release. But as I'm writing it, I keep remembering little story snippets from the other Gods stories. When I originally wrote Madison's story, the only reason I did that was because

November Freebie - Hi my lovely friends, as Devon and Wren's story will be my November release, I thought it was only fair to offer book one as my freebie for November. If you haven't read the Assassin's Alley series yet, then this is where it all began.

Halloween isn't as much of a big deal here in NZ as it is overseas. Did you decorate? Do you have costumes? What did you do for the spooky season?

I havent' spent a whole day reading for the longest time, but this past weekend, I felt I really needed it. I was re-reading some of my old favorites from Jon's Downright Ridiculous Shooting Case by @AJSherwood and Whyborne and Griffin by @JordanLHawk. What have you been reading recently?

#TinyTeaser - a huge thank you to all my lovely readers who have sent me messages or commented about how much they are enjoying Pointy Ears and Purple Glitter. It did seem that the inevitable happened, and Sparky was definitely a scene stealer, but

#ThrowbackThursday - I got the idea for Catching Damont, purely and simply from this image in my head that wouldn't leave me alone. It was of a Dodo... running. A little cartoon Dodo running as fast as his little legs could carry him, and that was all I could think of.

Whenever I feel down, I create something with a whole heap of color - it always makes me smile. What made you smile today my friends?

Sometimes the rabbit hole I fall down is sooo deep, and yet I never thought it would be. All I was doing was planning a road trip for Apollo and his mate along the main highway from Buffalo to Denver, with a possible extension to Texas. My lovely Patreons gave me so many ideas and

I did it!!!!!! That Tentacle Book is finished and off to the editors, yay!!! There were a lot of late nights involved in getting this one done, but I really needed to get it finished. Now off to see what Apollo and his mate have been doing while I've been busy with the tentacle story, lol.

I've been making a small art set of prints entitled "First Hugs" trying to lean more into cartoony style so I don't have to concentrate on getting facial features completely photo accurate lol - this is the first two which I thought came out quite well.

#TinyTeaser - Malik and Tynan's story was meant to be a Quirk of Fates short, but it turned out to be over 60,000 words. But then these two had a lot going on. Out now, I do hope you enjoy this one.

#ThrowbackThursday - I was thinking back this morning about some of the titles I've written that I initially struggled with - either because of other things going on in my life at the time, or when I knew I wanted to write the story, but I just couldn't get my words to fit with my vision.

One of the positives about writing kraken shifters is that you can make up their lore and how they do things, like claim their mates. Although I did have an interesting afternoon researching how octopus and squid have little ones -

I do love making backgrounds in my art journal - although making this one resulted in me then spending more than half an hour scrubbing that lovely blue off the garage wall lol.

#WritingQuestion - I'm trying to find a word for a fear of paranormals. So far the best Google can offer is Phasmophobia, which is more related to a fear of ghosts, Daemonophobia, clearly the fear of demons and then Teraphobia - monsters and mythical creatures.

My new release is due out tomorrow - yay!!!! Here's a wee teaser between the two secondary characters that really came across on the page - Ian, Malik's mechanic, and Sparky who is Tynan's talking raven.
“It’s nice to meet you, Ian.” Tynan extended his hand, which Ian shook vigorously, leaving

My wonderful grandperson visited again today - you have no idea how messy my material storage and this closet was, but now I can see what I've got. Three huge rubbish bags later - there was so much we needed help to get it all in the trash bins.

I wanted to make some resin blanks so my son Peter could have a go at turning them. My only problem is that I don't have a pressure pot - watching this anxiously to see if it will flash cure, lol.
