The Adaline Pre-Order is open!

I m so excited to announce that as of today, the pre-order for my newest novel is open! This is by far the best book I have written to date and I am really looking forward to getting it out there to readers. Adaline is a great sci-fi story for readers 10 and up, and is the first in what will be a series of books.

Adaline follows the story of a young boy who is raised in an environment completely controlled by machines. Somewhere between Harry Potter and the Matrix, Adaline is a world where individuality is sacrificed for the good of the community. When Boy 1124562 begins to discover hidden talents such as drawing, dreaming and problem solving, a mad doctor tries to erase his abilities and prevent the anomalies from spreading.

Read the book's description and pre-order your copy here.

The best part of the Adaline release? The party of course! Pick up your signed, pre-ordered from Baskin Robbins (Longview, Washington), hear me do my first public reading from Adaline, AND get a free scoop of ice cream. It's going to be a blast for everyone who comes out. Only the first 50 scoops are free, so make sure to come early and hang out with me September 20th from 4pm to 6pm while I sign books, answer questions, and celebrate my third book hitting the market.

True Midnight Ramblings

Ah, July. Normally a time of constant celebration, this month has been especially trying and filled with sleepless nights and wandering days. I am looking forward to August when friends return from far off places, grief will be a little closer to subdued, and life will begin to return to normalcy (I hope). In a fit of sleeplessness spurred from a sorrow filled day on the horizon, a late-night emergency and lots of random thoughts and feelings I decided to hover around the internets a while until my eyes start to feel a little more heavy. I had received a notification that there have been some updates here on Blogger/Blogspot and so I decided to check them out now that I am left with very little to do for the next 8 hours or so. You may notice that this blog, as well as my other two blogs ( A Smaller Bottom and Meet Your Marker ), has received a sudden face-lift. I was really surprised at the new backgrounds and customizations on the templates toolbar, and ha...

Getting Ready...

... for my very first author appearance in November. It's exciting! It's nerve wracking! It's a great opportunity! It's terrifying! It's going to be a great way to kick off the holiday season! I've got some books on order so there will be copies of both Age/Sex/Location: Love is Just a Click Away and A Giraffe In The Room available for sale. This is my first step into taking my writing on the road - maybe 2014 will include a book tour if this goes well...?

Don't Wait

I awoke Friday morning to a message from someone whose name was only vaguely familiar. Laying in bed, scrolling through Facebook on my cell phone, I opened the message. It was a quick note from a woman who was good friends with a woman who I have been close to for over a decade. I read it, and reeled with shock. My friend, a woman who had been with me through the best and worst of times, is gone. Taken from this life because of a driver who didn't stop at a stop sign on a country road. "Accidents happen," many say. It's true, but it isn't right. We never know when our time is going to be up. Today might be your last day, or mine. There's no way of predicting what will happen tomorrow... this evening... fifteen minutes from now. There are many tragedies stemming from this simple accident. First, a mother with fierce love of her two teenage children was stolen from them. A woman who was a pillar of support for so many has fallen from their list of who to cal...
