    Author Adjacent

    My awesome readers know I haven’t published a novel in three years. My first impulse is to offer some lame apology but I won’t because there’s nothing to be sorry for. Events over the last few years effected all of us. When my life took some turns and I turned with it. Publishing and keeping…

    Life Lessons from a Great Dane

    Polly has taught me many things from her rough beginnings in a hoarding type situation when she came to us at just five weeks old, and then over the next eight years. There is no doubt she’s taught me far more than I’ve taught her. I’m sure that’s the point of dogs in our lives…

    Tiny Writer’s Studio-Part 1

    It had to be small, warm, and welcoming. It had to be rustic and charming. It had to be off-grid friendly and work with our solar system. It had to be mobile so if I move I can take it with me. And it had to be cheap. Wait… bad choice of terms. Well within…

    Among the Elk

    Elk hold a special place in my heart. They are wild, free, and majestic. They also have their silly, playful moments. To be close enough to smell them and hear the chirping calls of the cows to their calves is an unforgettable experience. A day among the elk is pure soulshine. This was my day…
