I’m in a snarky sort of mood. Not bad snarky, really. More good snarky. Snarky because I’m still finding it hard to believe we’re (here in Florida) finally out from under a bombardment of political campaign ads touting the competition as Satan’s spawn, only worse. And good because I received some really great news from … Read More
Politics, schmolitics.
I’m sick of politics. I’m disgusted by lies told by all sides of the aisle. I just want this latest election cycle to get over with so we can get back to talking about important stuff… Like KITTEHS!
OT: Quilts and afghans for veterans.
(Permission to forward.) Attention quilters, crocheters, and knitters! 🙂 My mom is working with someone from the James A. Haley VA Hospital in Tampa to gather quilts and afghans (up to 4’x6′ for beds), lap robes (no fringe so it doesn’t get caught in wheelchairs), and knitted/crocheted caps for patients. If you’d like to donate … Read More
What’s your spooky story? (Glitches in the Matrix…)
I cannot claim this to be an original idea. I got it from Chuck Wendig’s Terrible Minds blog, and he got it from a Reddit thread. But I really liked it (not to mention was spooked by some of the responses) and decided hmm, I have a pretty wide range of readers. I bet they … Read More
Macy Largo & Tessa Monroe books
I still get comments from readers who don’t realize I’ve been published under more than one pen name. *smile* I’ve been published mostly as Tymber Dalton, but I am also published as Lesli Richardson, Macy Largo, and Tessa Monroe. As Macy Largo, I wrote “Dead Moon Rising” (contemporary, paranormal, mmf) and “Sunset Hearts” (contemporary, suspense, … Read More

What in the world…? Georgia Guidestones (American Stonehenge)
Source: Wikipedia I love watching the History Channel. They have a wide variety of shows. Including one called Ancient Aliens, that while I don’t necessarily subscribe to the theories put forth, it interests me. One site they featured on an episode is the Georgia Guidestones, also known to some as the American Stonehenge. I’d never … Read More

Loooong days, longer nights.
Last week was a difficult week for me. Annie’s funeral was on Thursday, then I got home from that to find out about the piracy of my books. (Yes, the person apologized for it, and yes, I do believe they’re sorry and won’t do it again.) No, not a good day, for sure. I’m not … Read More
Goodreads petition against piracy.
Did you know a Goodreads librarian can upload an e-book file to a book page? I found this out after discovering (thanks to a reader giving me a heads-up) that over a year ago, a Goodreads librarian had illegally uploaded several of my ebook files. Not only did I not know this was possible, I’ve … Read More
Old and new.
I’m not sad to see last year go. My grandfather died, and a good friend of mine found out she had terminal cancer. Since we lost her on New Year’s Day, technically she died this year, but the last two months of last year truly sucked. Her funeral is tomorrow, and Hubby, Sir, and I … Read More

Happy New Year, writing advice
Happy New Year, everyone. I hope you had a safe and happy one. I love Chuck Wendig. His from-the-hip, snarkalicious style is fantastic. As such, I refer you today to his recent post, 25 Things Writers Should Stop Doing.

My favorite thesaurus.
I was reminded yet again today why I luuurrrrve Roget’s and it’s my preferred thesaurus. I have the fourth edition that I always go to, revised by Robert L. Chapman. The one I have has served me since high school. Once you learn how to navigate it, you’ll likely treasure it the way I do.
