MY DAD WAS AN ENTREPRENEUR

There’s my dad, looking pretty much like I remember him. First he was a machinist, then a gunsmith. Sure, he worked for people, Boeing, H&H, Westinghouse, but he always had side work on his own, and twice in our lives he had his own shop, and was his own boss. My dad and I were simpatico, a lot of my life, in ways we were not with our other family members. We sometimes went to the movies…

WELCOME TO PRIDE MONTH!

Be an ally, during pride and all life long!

Dave and I agree, our lives would not be as loving, interesting, or rich without the LGBTQ+ people we have been fortunate enough to have in our lives. And certainly not as colorful! Pride Month! We love you. We hope we do a good job of valuing Pride all year! For this year’s Pride I was thinking about probably the first time I ever knew there were people who were gay, when I read Rita Mae…

SO I'M CRYING. SO WHAT?

For better or for worse for Anthony Doyle, I am/was his editor for HIBERNACULUM. I read it when it first came in as a submission, and I read it awhile back, probably pre-2021, and I read it again this year and part of last, as we got it (at long last) ready to go. Anthony is exceedingly kind and patient as we did all our DPP move stuff. And, in this case, I do think it served him as we’re a…

COPYRIGHT LAW (in the USA) EXPLAINED

To visit click the photo or HERE. What a great little resource this is. Isn’t it wonderful how some sites offer so much for no charge at all? We buy copyright for all of our single-book authors, and it is important to have, and our pleasure to provide. As an offshoot of this topic, I am often asked by authors if they can republish with a publisher something they have self-published on the web,…

By the Time You Read This, You May Be Cooking Dinner

"...the wood cylinder moans, the paddles slow, the moon is full, the butter comes."

A photo I took, and then photoshopped a bit, of black radishes. I haven’t tried them yet. They’re as large as beets. Have you tried them? As a human perhaps the toughest task I face is what the heck to feed me, and the spouse and child, each day for dinner. Breakfast everyone is on their own. Daughter, who has a light appetite, has a protein shake. Spouse, who has a sweet tooth, has some sort of…

OMYGOSH! VOTE FOR ANTHONY!

Anthony Doyle’s story is up for story of the year at SPILLWORDS! “Brain in a Jar” is a haunting father-and-son story that deals with who men are, and who they have to prove they are. As you know if you read my blog, Anthony wrote the novel I published, HIBERNACULUM, and it is one of my favorite books. I published it because I was stunned by his story-telling, and I still am. Anthony is an…

A FEW TIMES I ATE THIS KIND A MEAL, AND I KNOW IT'S GOT A LOTTA TASTE APPEAL, 'CAUSE I AM A HASSELBACK GIRL; YES I AM A HASSELBACK GIRL

It’s true: from my title you can tell I’m a dork. But I love that amazing Gwen Stefani song. It’s one of those songs I could sing all day: Gwen Stefani: Hollaback Girl In any case… to return to the point, I am making hasselback eggplant. And, as you could see from photo #1, hasselback really just means sliced, but not all the way through. This is something that I saw on my FB feed once:…

MAKING A LIVING AS A NOVELIST

m

Aside from doing my own writing, and teaching and tutoring, I’m in the publishing biz. And, during my six years doing that I have really been delving into this topic over and over, not even for myself, in all honesty, but for the truly very talented authors I have helped to publish who I think should be making a living from their writing because most authors are not making a living from their…

RIP DEAR, AMAZING, SENATOR FEINSTEIN

I think politics are extremely important, because they determine what rights I have as a woman in the United States, and, over the past few years, I lost the right to my own body because of them. Which is really a sickening thought. I do not own me. And now we lost Senator Feinstein, who worked tirelessly to get me control of my own body, and protect me from gun violence, and tried to help to…
