Horrorstör by Grady Hendrix My rating: 5 of 5 stars I've wanted to read this book since the moment I found out about it. When I found out my local library had it, I put it on hold. And it arrived this week, so I couldn't wait to get stuck into this story. Orsk is a furnitur…
I really have. :/ I think it's because of Twitter. Yeah, let's blame Twitter. LOL. I usually post there throughout the day and before I realise it, another day is done and I still haven't blogged. Really need to change that, because I actually like to blog. It&…

That's right! After figuring out how to scramble my novel--because for some reason the website no longer tells you how, just sends you to some website to do it--I validated my story. Yay. The second Sierra Fox spin-off is now done. Well, the first draft is done and …

Yep. That's right. The first draft of Willow's story is done & done . (As Homer Simpson would say, LOL.) I'll probably start writing down bits and pieces that I want to add--because that always happens when I finish writing a story--but for now: the FIRST…
