I have a friend who travels a lot on business. When I asked her if she wanted me to send ebook versions of my novels, she responded with a loving and detailed description of her process for choosing what to read on a plane. It involves walking into the used bookstore...

One thing I’ll say for this hotel — the air conditioning is extra efficient. When it’s 89 F out there, I have to throw a blanket around my shoulders in here. And that’s with the thermostat set to 78. I shudder to think what would happen if I...

So! Phoenix! It’s actually my husband’s doing that we’re here; he’s on a commission, and it’s meeting. I tagged along for the ride. Well, strictly speaking, I tagged along because The Husband got that “can I have a puppy?”...

Ummm. It’s been two months since my last post, hasn’t it? [sheepish look] The short answer: I’ve been rather snowed under with Life, Tolari Space, and Everything. The rather longer answer sits on my hard drive (and backed up in the cloud) at 93,292...

Welcome to the Tolari stop on the blog hop! My offering comes from my upcoming book, The Fall, which will hopefully be out later this year. This tidbit comes toward the end of a scene in which the highly empathic Laura spends all night talking with the man she loves....

Two years ago, I started writing The Marann. Little did I know where that would take me! Currently, I’m revising the third book, The Fall, to reflect the changes I made for the Sky Warrior edition of Daughters of Suralia. It’s a lot more work than I...
