Just some pictures from the convention. Scares That Cares raises money for families who are unable to pay for medical needs. Set in the quaint city of Williamsburg, VA., this three day event is host to a plethora of celebrities who all share the same vision: to help those less fortunate. The venue is well…
#reading #horror #bookclub #reviews I’m starting a monthly horror reading group. Every month I’m looking for authors willing to send out one free ebook to members to vote on their favorite Villain of the Month. In return, you get free promotion and members agree to leave an honest review. Do you want to play a…
Disclaimer: NONE of the artwork shown is mine. I am not using it for monetary gain. I’m creating a mood board for my characters and sharing “concepts” and “visual aids” for fun.

Though none of them are in the publishing industry, the things I learned from their expertise still apply. I hope through this series, many of you will find something to take away…
So this story is a work in progress. Posting them here motivates me. I am trying to be more consistent and show my writing style. Most people know me as the CEO of Stitched Smile Publications but don’t know who I am as a writer. I want to change that. I’m a woman of many crowns and writing happens…
Having done enough conventions and literary panels this year, I wanted to address the question I seem to get most often: How do I stay on track?
