Some of you have expressed concern as I seemingly disappeared off the face of the earth – or at least the face of the Internet. I was in Michigan.  I went to Michigan for the wedding of my niece Hailee.  I ended up not attending the wedding because I had what seemed like endless diarrhea…

This is Supernatural, without Sam and Dean – or Bobby – or even Garth. This is Supernatural form the viewpoint of the local cops – except set in New Zealand. Two local New Zealand cops Minogue and O’Leary, who are in no way versed in demon, werewolf, etc. lore, dealing with various sorts of paranormal…

Got my flyer announcing our 50 YEAR High School Reunion. WTSF? It’s not until next year, but still … How did I get this old? (Seriously – if you knew all the truly stupid things I have done in my life, you’d be wondering too – how did she get to be a fat OLD…

When I read the little blurb on BookBub for this book, I was instantly intrigued.  Using the premise of Stepford Wives as a jumping off point – this book takes you on a real rollercoaster of a ride.  This is Stepford Wives from the viewpoint of a robot (or womanoid), who is starting to realize…

Some fat old ladies should avoid consuming inordinate amounts of trail mix. Trail mix in. Trail mix out. Just not as easy going out. You have been warned. You’re welcome.
