Free book this coming weekend!!

From time to time, I offer one of my books for free in eBook format. Since Scion is set to be released next month….. I figured I would offer one of my books for free again! This weekend, from Thursday 28 August 2025, 12:00 AM PDT until Monday 1 September 2025, 11:59 PM PDT, the […]

Languages

Those of you who have actually read my Portals Series will know that I have a love for languages. After all, the Portal Seeker, imbued with the magic of Wisdom, has the ability to learn to speak in almost any language of the Portals. Others become multi-lingual as well, learning them in a variety of […]

Blessed are….

In my fantastical adventurous Portals Series, there is an enemy to magic. It is not dark magic, for even sorcery has a place in my fictionalized world of portals and realms even as some look down their nose at it. It is rather an ideal, an entity called evil. Evil is twisted, created from the […]

Iowa Nice

As a Southern California transplant to the Midwest almost seventeen years ago, I had to become accustomed to the idea that perfect strangers here in Iowa seem to go out of their way to help others. My first year here, my car had broken down on the side of the road and a man whose name […]

Persist

Anyone who knows me knows that I wear several bracelets. It’s something I started doing a few years ago, mainly because I wanted to express myself, but also because some have words I wanted to focus on. I’ve mentioned them in a few blogs posts here as well. One of the words I have on […]

Free Ebook This Weekend

I have the Portals Series, which follows the seekers of magic, otherwise known as the portal seekers, from the Realm of Original Magic as they travel the realms in search of magic. The first portal seeker […]

Keeper of Stories

I haven’t written about one of my novellas in a bit. In fact, it was way back in February that I wrote the blog post about Child of the Sage, when I offered that one for free (HEY-if you downloaded it, read it – I could use some more reviews!). And since I am at […]

Recharge

Yesterday, I was so over being around people. I was exhausted beyond measure because I have been pushing myself to do more and more and haven’t had time to decompress. The introvert within me needed some moments without pressure. Despite my exhaustion, I knew I had to find solitude. I needed to recharge my soul. […]

For the Love of Fellowship

If you are reading this, do me a favor. Reach out your hand as far as it will go. How far can you reach? Can you touch a person near you? Can you reach it out to help someone or some thing? You probably aren’t much all by yourself. Imagine what would happen if we […]

Child of the Sage

I figured that since I am currently offering the novella for free, I should probably share the story of how Child of the Sage came to be. After I finished writing Portal Seeker in the early summer of 2021, I thought I was done with my series. After all, I had three loose stories that […]
