Toss a coin to your author!

I have three books available now. A Farscapesque space opera, and a fantasy crime duology.

My stories have snarky found families and deep character moments, humor and action, and an easy reading style.

Please support indie this holiday season!

This vanilla protein shake tastes like melted ice cream.

Unpopular writing/reading opinion:

I like starting a story by reading about someone being forcibly ejected from nappy time. It matches my confusion about what the hell is going on.

Sitting at work on a Monday morning.

I’d much rather be filling out equipment prices in a spreadsheet for DnD. Or building an entire merchant’s guild and a gaggle of shops. Or laying out an easier way to price magic items on the fly for DMs.

I just spent way too much time figuring out how big a gold coin would be in 5e DnD.

PHB says 50 coins = 1 lb
Gold = 1206 lb/cuft

So the volume of a gold coin is roughly .028 cubic inches, and a penny is .026

Gold coins in DnD are the size of pennies. I’m not sure why this disappoints me so much.

I am so impatient to see the first draft of my cover for Once Upon A Wizard’s Curse…. I keep checking my emails hoping it comes through. 😅

Sent the request off for the cover design for Once Upon A Wizard’s Curse! Now I just have to wait………. Patiently…………

Oh here’s the blurb!

What does it say about me that I feel like fighting a battle against werewolves in the rain at night is cozy fantasy?

If you read *this* article: reactormag.com/star-treks-u... and thought, "man, I wish I could read it again, but as Sapphic body horror", boy, have I got a book for you.

I may have lost my mind. If you see it, please give it water and a hug and mail it to the fae realm. Or at least a big old forest somewhere.

Coming up with a good title is hard. Maybe I should do like all the anime do now. 😅

An Archeology Professor Finds Out He’s A Wizard And Now A Secret Society Is Out To Kill Him

There. Done. That’s a great title right?
February 4, 2026 at 6:31 PM
It is ready.

It’s as edited as it will get, and it’s ready to be dressed up for the world to read.

Now I just need a proper title. And a cover. And a blurb… omg all the really hard stuff is left.

Let’s play another round of What’s My Genre!

Archeology professor/hot cinnamon roll wizard who’s friends with a group of werewolves in a sleepy college town in the Midwest has to discover why a secret anti-wizard group is trying to kill him.

Urban Fantasy?
Paranormal Fantasy?
Contemporary Fantasy?

I just spent almost five hours creating a physical recruitment pamphlet for the DnD dungeon crawl campaign I’m building. What a lovely way to waste a Saturday. 😅

It’s the weekend of Imbolc and I’ve felt the urge to play with plants. Set out some dirt pots so the creepers on my Fantasy Fern can root, and made a little makeshift greenhouse for the cuttings from my Rabbits Foot Fern. Soon I will have ferns to give away to friends. 🪴

Why does my cat look at me in absolute horror when I sneeze? Like what does he think just happened? It’s not like my face just opened up into an eldritch maw full of waving tentacles. But by the way this little demon reacts it totally did just that.

The world is bullshit. Sit down with a fun book about a snarky thief who hates the ruling class and has PTSD about eldritch monsters and magic. books2read.com/u/mZ6Znl

It would be a great time to have Scanners powers.

We call him Cat Soup because he just flows into whatever place he settles down. He is fast asleep in this picture.

Ah yes. The mighty Norwegian Groundhound. Trying to deepen his hellpit even when it’s -10F outside.

I’ve decided I’m going to start calling my Friday night in person DnD session a “dinner party” when I talk to normies. Considering we cook a huge meal to eat before/during the session, I think that’s fair. Then they ascribe the appropriate amount of effort to prep for this thing.

It’s been A Day™️ and I just want to sit on the couch with a strawberry cake and a tub of ice cream and cry while I watch Critical Role do ridiculous shit. Is that so bad?

I just can’t today. Where’s the reset button for *gestures vaguely at everything*

Today’s t-shirt: You can agree with me or you can be wrong

It’s so freaking weird when she stands up wearing the t-shirt. It’s like she’s a toddler. 😅
