In looking back
at what I wrote concerning my first miscarriage, I find myself reaching for the
comfort and solace in words once more, only this time, there is no beauty in
these words. Instead I find a rawness, a coldness that cannot be removed by
searching for the perfect arrangement of words. I wish I could.
I expected to be
sad. What I did not expect was the irrationally powerful anger and...

My flash piece "Locks" is up over at Fear and Trembling magazine. Lyn Perry was kind enough to publish it, and I'd say it's a heck of a speculative magazine! Check it out!...

A New Year

The past few weeks have been a strange combination of highs and lows. The highs? A pub and very first SALE at Fear and Trembling magazine. A lovely personal rejection note from Corvus that was so genuine and kind that it was almost as good as a pub. My review of Elyssa East's Dogtown merited an incredibly nice note from the author herself. You can find the review here, and while you are there, take...

Okay. I get it. And don't get me wrong, I can appreciate ANYONE's New Year's Resolution to get in shape and take better care of him/herself. In fact I applaud you. Trust me, the past year has seen massive swings back in forth in my own exercise routine.
So, no, I have no inherent beef with anyone who...

Right now I both love and hate what I've done,...

"Hole," or as I more affectionately know it "Bree's Story" is still without a home. I've gotten a fresh rejection from Bete Noire today, and I'm not going to lie, this one stung. As a magazine that claims to pride itself on providing personal rejections, it hurt to open my email and see the same old form rejection that every other publication sends. Oh well. I like the magazine very much and will...
