Goodies came in today! I don't have to spend the rest of the month worrying about my books coming in in time for my official book birthday party on the 24th!

When you dismiss the nice things your friends say about you, you are calling them a liar and a poor judge of character who you are choosing not to believe.

In non-writing related news, I put the finishing touches on my second World of Warcraft house today. I don't think I'll be touching them again until the next big patch. Now to put all that creative energy back into something I can make money on...

For the curious: This is why there's no map in The Godslayer Series. This is the map I have in my notes. The tiny circle is Cairnborough.
scribbled bubbles with the names Aledwyn (elf lands), Kaelwyn, Baelwyn, Ceolwyn, Lorwyn, Verwyn, Eudwyn, and Uriwyn, with one small circle that has something resembling a checkmark or N in the middle and a line vaguely indicating a coastline if you let your imagination run away with you

Refusing to tell someone that a family member has died because they aren't part of your religion, or because they are estranged from their parent who you think should pass that news along, is messed up. My mom was abusive. She was a child molester who married another child molester.

If you call yourself a Christian and believe in the prosperity doctrine, you're probably just a Roman wearing a cross.

we'd all be so much better off if we hadn't decided as a civilization that saying "I don't know" is supposedly a sign of weakness, not of honesty

I went to a friend's book debut party, and it was so fun! Coffee, conchas, and signs to hold up for pictures. Really makes me wish I'd written romance instead of fantasy. She really knows where the marketing is!

My husband and I went out to see Iron Lung for Valentine's Day. Hearts pump lots of blood, Iron Lung has lots of blood, seems like a perfect date movie to me! I'm really glad we were able to see it in the theater. It was beautiful, disturbing, and one of my top favorite horror movies now.

I live in Phoenix, and we're expecting rain. On the fence if I should be running out to stock up on bread and toilet paper. I mean, we've got plenty for now, but it's rain. In Phoenix. Pray for us. I don't know what we'll do when the wet stuff hits. We don't have the infrastructure for this.

Well, I'm on the verge of giving up on my brain. I'm having an impossible time with this book. It's a jumbled mess right now. I wanna write faeries, pirates, and vampires. Not wizards. But I also wanna finish this series. T_T

I threw my hat in the ring and put Everyone Dies Alone up for SPFBO yesterday. I did NOT make the coin flip, which is a little disappointing but fine. I plan on being supportive and excited for others in ways I couldn't if I had skin in the game. This'll be fun!

Happy New Year folks! We survived another trip around the sun, and might make it through this one. May the new year treat you kindly and be full of happy moments and relief from stress and the insanity that seems to have hit so many of us last year. Good luck to us all.

I'm supposed to be at Tales & Tumbleweeds Book Festival today, out in Mesa. Instead my body has betrayed me with weakness and I am glued to the couch. So my husband went in my stead.

Driving to my MIL's house and half way through Alice's Restaurant we realized we forgot to grab the herbals from the fridge. Store or turn around? We turned around. At least we got to hear the whole song.

My birthday yesterday went really well. One thing my husband got me was a few lottery scratchers, and I'm glad I didn't check them until today. Not a single winner among them. It's good I didn't face that disappointment until my birthday was over! 🤣

I actually got a surprise party for my birthday last night. That was pretty awesome! I'm really hopeful that today is nice and quiet, then we can do a small family thing with Thanksgiving, just the way I like.

My birthday is coming up next week, and I am staring at it warily. Birthdays and I don't always get along. It's not the age, I view that as a badge of honor. It's the buildup and inevitable disaster that follows.

Just went through the process of updating all my covers with changes to the title/author fonts effects. Same iconic font, it just looks slightly prettier now (and all volumes will match now instead of The Arcane War being completely different from the rest).

All pumped up and ready to start the week right with putting words on paper. Or computer screen. I should spend time composing music to go with some lyrics I wrote, too. Maybe that's a tomorrow thing, once I set up my keyboard or tune one of my guitars. Getting this book out is priority one.

I was just terribly clever and added something to my novel that I'm proud of. You have to take my word for it, because spoilers, but I'm patting myself on the back SO hard right now.

"It feels like I've been editing for hours" - real time ten minutes "I'll just take a break to refocus for ten minutes" - real time many hours Seriously, the next book will be out soon. Just not as soon as it was supposed to be. (real explanation is on Patreon on a free life update fyi)

I've been included in a Halloween anthology of spooky tales. Taadaa! Or something. I suck at marketing. Just get the book, I promise it's good. Well, I promise my short story is good. I'm pretty sure the others are amazing, too. You should buy a copy and let me know. www.amazon.com/dp/B0FX6Q3DRS

On Discord I found people who are also enjoying Vampires SMP. They're talking about picking which 2-5 POVs they watch each week, and I've watched six today. When special interests collide... ...gonna watch another now.

I am so exhausted. Got home from the hospital yesterday. Finally picked up my new glasses today. Went out for brunch with my mother-in-law. Went from enjoying freedom to done with the world at record speed. Been a zombie since. And now my throat is starting to itch. x_x Do not want.

Oh man do I NOT have time for "I got mine, so everyone else is beneath me" people. I'm more of a "rising tide lifts all boats" person. If you get your first book contract and use that to shame indies, you can crow to someone else, not me.

I braved the outdoors. Our neighbor was flying a drone with his kids and they got it lodged in one of our trees. No worries, got it untangled pretty quick. But then we saw that our tortoise was hanging out in the open which made the oppressive heat worth braving.
The vicious attack tortoise who lives in my backyard, viciously attacking a patch of grass.

If you haven’t heard Hayley Williams new song you really need to take the time to listen to it. open.spotify.com/track/4G1ihd...
"They put up chain-link fences underneath the biggest bridges
They pose in Christmas cards with guns as big as all their children
They say that Jesus is the way but then they gave him a white face
So they don't have to pray to someone
they deem lesser than them
The South will not rise again
Til it's paid for every sin
Strange fruit, hard bargain Till the roots, Southern Gotham"
Hayley williams
