Hello everyone, First of all, I apologize for not responding to all the comments from the last Insecure Writer’s Support Group post yet. It’s been quite the month. Attempting to deliver an in-class experience to my students online has been challenging, and...

This month’s Insecure Writer’s Support Group question will be a loaded one for many of us: with everything that’s happening due to the coronavirus, how are things in your world? Sometimes it seems to me like the world has turned into a Charles...

Today’s the day: Dragonfly Summer is now available. If you already have an Audible subscription, it’s included, and if not, you can listen to it through their free trial. It’s hard to believe that this is my tenth published book. It doesn’t...

So, it’s February again already. How did that happen? It’s also Black History Month. And, unless you’re a part of the horror writing/reviewing/blogging community, you may not know that it’s also Women in Horror Month (WIHM). To be honest, I...

Well, I did it. I survived the craziest week of all time. (Note: I do not own a vehicle and rely on public transportation, which makes all this “rushing” a lot more…um, interesting.) Monday, Oct 28: In the studio by 7 am with Drew and Karly at the...

Please welcome my multi-talented author friend, Damyanti Biswas, as she shares this chilling true story of one of India’s mysterious places. Delhi is a sprawling modern metropolis, and its urban jungle of steel and glass looks unlikely to be haunted, but as I...

So it’s October. Officially spooky season in my neck o’ the woods, which means it’s time to break out the spiderweb earrings, haunted house dress, and Ouija board skirt, (and pretend I don’t wear these things year round). Halloween is a great...
