My brother and I are driving from North Carolina to Maine with his two cats. I'm going to document the 💩 out of our journey. There will be so much cat content. Follow along!

My phone charger glitched out, so I wasn't able to post while on the road yesterday in order to conserve the battery. This was taken Sunday night at the pet-friendly hotel in NY. Mac was the first to explore.

After some drama that left my brother looking like he went a round with Edward Scissorhands, we got the cats loaded and hit the road.
The cats are now free to roam about the cabin.

Let's talk about book marketing!

Authors, what's working for you? What's not?

Readers, how do you find new books/authors, and how do you engage with authors?

Inquiring minds want to know! 😀 Please share your insights in the comments.

HAPPY INDIE PUBLISHER DAY! 🎉

I knew when I made this graphic that I was going to forget presses and I can't believe I didn't mention @sleyhouseeditor.bsky.social, @neonhemlock.bsky.social and @nefariousbatpress.bsky.social! They should be in here. Consider picking up some indie books today!

A grad student. A green card. A two-page memo. That’s all it took. Marco Rubio, Trump’s Sec. of State, used a 1952 law to deport Khalil for defending Palestinians. No crime. No trial. Just speech. This isn’t security—it’s censorship. Who’s next? Full article: www.facebook.com/share/p/19M7...

Psst...cover and blurb for Loyalty & Lies to be revealed soon! This is book one of the New L.A. Mafia duet, and a spin-off of The New Mafia Trilogy. :)

Please Read:

If you live in district 24 (parts of east side of Bangor, Veazie and Orono), there is a special House election today at the Cross Center. Democrat Sean Faircloth could use your vote. Democrats hold a slim majority in the Maine House and we need to keep every seat we can!

I'm proud of my governor! I've had the privilege of meeting Janet Mills several times (pictured here with her & my parents at The Blaine House). More people in leadership positions need to follow her lead & stand up/push back. As Maine goes, so goes the nation.

Every winter, I ask for a flamethrower to deal with the ice and snow, and my ask keeps getting denied by the hubs. WTF? What happened to "happy wife, happy life"? #winterinmaine

I contracted to write a short story for an anthology, and in true slacker and pantser fashion, wrote the story at the 11th hour. Thanks to my amazing Alpha readers, they proofread and provided valuable edits/feedback in less than 48-hours. ❤️ Story was submitted a day before deadline. #writerslife
