The adorableness of a child’s logic…
So the other day, my mom directed my attention to this ridiculously adorable moment on this author's Facebook page that she follows...the conversation went as follows...Breeana Puttroff:My daughter, finder of plot holes at age five: Little Goose: "I'm thinking of putting Lilly in a class where she can learn how to speak."

Blog Hop 2013
So I've heard about this thing going around called a Blog Hop. I look at it as sort of an interview about a work in progress that you're working on.

I was unexpectedly able to go see The Hobbit premiere due to a friend of mine having an extra ticket (in 3D) and they really didn't want it to go to waste. I haven't gotten around to reading the books yet, but I definitely will now. I was… Continue reading Calling all fantasy lovers…

Since the month is winding down now, I guess I'll share how my month's been. I attempted National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) for the second time this year. Last year I didn't have a clue of what I was doing, and yet somehow managed to pull just over 20,000 words out of the air. This… Continue reading NaNoWriMo 2012
Random Celebratory Post!!
Ok, so this isn't exactly random. I have a point to make here. I have somehow seriously underestimated any number of potential fans of my writing. I know that because this morning, I am transferring some stories from an old writing account to the new one. On the portfolio page, it has your story's title,… Continue reading Random Celebratory Post!!
