Hot Alberta Summer and Sphinx's Heart Update
It’s hot! And an update on progress for The Sphinx’s Heart.
Remembering Me
“Do you remember who I am?” Mom asks.
I don’t bother asking Grandma if she remembers me. She hasn’t recognized me as her granddaughter for years.
I Made it Through the Fire Swamp... Okay, close.
After many moons of silence, I recap why it’s been so quiet here for the last six months: my journey through burnout.

The Year of Playing with Words and Yarn
This year, I'm taking my knitting business in a slightly new direction, one designed to respark my joy, to borrow an overused trending phrase. I have decided to take a year off of publishing new patterns, and have declared this my "Year of Playing With Words and Yarn." That means you’ll be hearing more about knitting. And that’s a good thing.
Like a Phoenix
When I crashed and burned, it made room for a new paradigm—accepting who I am as an artist and what I truly want from my life. This year is looking brighter already.
The Week of Epicness That Will Change My Writing Life
Last week, there were several exciting things that happened in my writing career: The Undine’s Tear hit the top 100 on Amazon, I was featured on Mark Leslie Lefebvre’s podcast, and I finished the zero draft of The Spinx’s Heart. But the most exciting thing for me personally was discovering the possibilities of dictation as a productivity tool. This post is mostly me geeking out about it. (But there’s also a sale link.)
