I'm writing this at the cabin (yay) with a raging headache caused by my own stubborn experimentation* (ugh). Please forgive the general erratic-ness and worse than usual grammar. There is neither rhyme nor reason to anything in this post: it's full of random mess. I'm not sure how summer is half over already, but here… Continue reading Snippets

A Tisket, A Tasket…
A fAngus in a basket… Oh, is this your clean bedding? I had no idea! What’s over there? Is that a ghost in the corner? Just…look away from the cat in the basket, human!
Every Title I’ve Tried for this is Filthy. Also, please ignore our carpet.
This is not a real post because school hasn't ended and things have been just this side of insanely busy for the last howevermany weeks (good Goddess how is it JUNE already? I still have a zillion unintended snapdragons to plant!) and I have three reviews to write. Yes, the run on sentence reflects what's… Continue reading Every Title I’ve Tried for this is Filthy.

Book News
I have a cover!! I love it. I can't wait to do a big cover reveal whenever I'm allowed. I also got to see a draft of the forward, written by an author I had at the top of my "if only" wish list when asked for anyone I'd prefer the publisher ask first. The… Continue reading Book News
A fAngus Follow Up
I'm working on a book review and some other bits of news, but in the meantime Mr. fAngus had a bit of a photo shoot last night that produced some entertaining expressions. He wasn't trying to look like a disdainful supermodel, but that's what ended up happening after Ragnar and Minerva ran by making noise,… Continue reading A fAngus Follow Up
How I Offended fAngus This Week. Also, an Essay Published!
fAngus, who is nearly seven (and no, I don't know how old that makes him in cat years because, unlike dogs, cats don't enthusiastically share their actual age with folk they consider staff) has always been a contrary little dude. He prefers not to snuggle, thank you very much. He spent most of his time… Continue reading How I Offended fAngus This Week. Also, an Essay Published!
Just…Dogs and Dogs Adjacent.
Yesterday was 70 degrees, so I took my laptop on the deck and found this goober on my chair. Please note how she refuses to look AT me, because I'm telling her to get the hell off my spot so I can work. FYI, there's a second chair she could've used. It’s a running joke… Continue reading Just…Dogs and Dogs Adjacent.
Vacation Log: Sunburn Date March somethingth?
Balcony view of the Atlantic Yes I brought my laptop to Cocoa Beach. No, I didn't bring it out ON the beach (good Goddess, no way) like the dude I saw yesterday. He seemed to think his little dome tent and door flap (not euphemisms) would save his laptop as he sat there all day… Continue reading Vacation Log: Sunburn Date March somethingth?
It’s Away!
Four weeks ago, I submitted my manuscript to the publisher (a day early, which I was rather proud of, being a general procrastinator). Two weeks ago, they responded after the team had gone through as a "first pass" with suggested notes. Add a few things here and there, maybe combine a couple chapters, title suggestions:… Continue reading It’s Away!
Not a Master Task Juggler
Happy Valentine's Day to me, from SK. Contrary to rumors started by my new reading glasses stand, I am still here. I started the new job this week on Wednesday, which turned out to be a massively positive move. I was stressed about the change (because even good change is stressful and requires rejiggering of… Continue reading Not a Master Task Juggler
