New backsplash! I love how it turned out.

Giving the house a bit of a moody glow-up. First step? Kitchen floor.

I had a chance to meet Sam Witwer today at LVL Up Expo in Vegas. Y'all, he was so nice. I stumbled all over my words, and he handled me being starstruck with such grace.

My advice? Banned books are usually some of the best books out there & more people should read them.

The first bloom of the year has arrived in Alabama! A tiny but mighty reminder that warmer days are ahead. What’s blooming in your area? #AlabamaSpring #FirstBloom #NatureLover #SpringVibes #SouthernGardening

✨ Meet the Author Monday! ✨

Fun facts about me:

I'm an Army veteran based in Alabama, but I’d love to make Salem, MA my home.
I’m an introvert who loves fan cons.
I love tattoos and the show Supernatural.
My writing is dark suspense, not romance.

One of the highlights of going to conventions is meeting all of the sweet animals!

Last year, my world looked so different: a big tree, a bigger house, and an intact marriage. Now, my Halloween tree stands as my Christmas tree, and it’s just me and my son in a smaller, older home.

Life doesn’t always go as planned, but there are always things to be grateful for.

Nosferatu at Christmas.

Four years ago, I hit "publish" on Amazon and started my indie author journey. I was terrified. I did no advertising--I was sure it would be a disaster. Then, I started getting feedback. It was a hit! (A small one, but a hit nonetheless.) It is still one of my best selling books. #IndieAuthor

Well, my goal was to read 50 books this year, and I only read 44. Given that my life pretty much imploded this year, I'm calling that a win.

Think anyone will pick up on the subtle nod to Shelley Duvall in The Shining?
