It took me a while, but I managed to gather all of my appearances, mentions, and interviews as I gear up to add a media page to my website.
The last time I was in a bookstore was on my birthday. I walked around and around trying to figure out what I wanted to buy, which is the biggest problem for a bookworm.

A story about the underdog, tinged with amazing friends, mixed with romantic relationships, and doused with tough topics like alcoholism and toxic family.

When the curls make an entrance
As an indie author, I try to lift other indies up as much as I can.
So far, I've:
- Read and reviewed tons of indie books
- Read and offered grammatical/ developmental advice for their work
- Been an ARC reader
- Spotlight Indies in my newsletter each week
- Partner with Indies for audience swaps

#Guilty as ever, the dropped cookie jar shattered at the feet of the kids as their mother stepped in through the door. Glass splayed everywhere as the kids looked on at their mother, hands full of cookies. With a smile and a shake of her head, she took the cookies and usered the two away.

When I began my career as an author, I paid three thousand dollars to publish my book.
This paid for:
- A cover to be made
- A book description
- Editing both grammar and developmental
- Uploading it to Amazon for me
And now, after 11 years and 18 books later, I am so proud of how far I've come.

The #involution is the sword fight clinged metal to metal as the two spiraled around each other and stopped.
"You will not pass betrayer of Glendail!"
"I am not a betrayer! You are betrayer!"
Spiraling back in the opposite directly, the two knights continue to fight over who is the betrayer.
