Wishing you an easy coast … More The Delta Pearl is on the Way
Saturday, April 25, 2020 At one point in my life, I was able to travel some. The area that resonated with me most was the “high desert” southwest of the USA. If you’ve seen my “About” page, you know that story. As I write this, I feel uncomfortable doing any sort of post at all… … More Reinvention — a Year Later
Wednesday, April 22, 2020 I’m continuing my break, but I still wanted to share something good! We all need positive things — and great things to read. So here are a couple of quick book reviews. Both of these are for the “Rave Reviews Book Club” (RRBC). Karen Black, A Candle in the Darkness From … More Wednesday Book Reviews — Twofer, #RRBC
Yes, I meant to take a break this weekend. However, when Chris Graham told me there was a new review of Fiona Finch & the Pink Valentine, I had to come back. Robbie Cheadle’s review tickled me pink! Oops, I think I deleted the link. Please click here. I’m afraid to commit to next weekend, … More #Bookreview – Fiona Finch and the Pink Valentine: A steampunk novella by Teagan Ríordáin Geneviene — Robbie’s inspiration
Wednesday, April 15, 2020 Most people have limitations. Nobody is really Super Man or Wonder Woman. Some of us have more limiting limitations than others. A lot of you know that I have my “issues” that get in the way of a normal life. I try to make this blog a sanctuary for everyone — … More Sanctuary & Another Break
Hearing, Sight, Smell, Taste, Touch Wednesday, April 15, 2020 Traditionally those are the five senses. I suddenly decided to rerun this mini-series on The Senses. I originally did this series five years ago, so maybe it’s fitting. In novel writing I try to involve all your (the reader’s) senses. Today I want all of us … More Wednesday Writing with the Senses — Hearing
Saturday, April 11, 2020 Welcome my chuckaboos. In the Victorian Era “chuckaboo” was the term for a dear friend, and that’s what all of you are to me. Because of you, I’m here with the steampunk riverboat, The Delta Pearl! I was able to use two “random reader things” for this episode. First, from John … More The Delta Pearl 30 — Observe
Wednesday, April 8, 2020 I got such a kick out of the concept the first time I heard of “Draw a Bird Day.” I found the whimsy irresistible. Jinx of Brother Love — a Crossroad would approve. You can read the sweetly sentimental story behind the day by clicking Draw a Bird Day. The website … More Wednesday — Draw a Bird Day
Saturday, April 4, 2020 Welcome back, my chuckaboos. I’m here with the steampunk riverboat, The Delta Pearl! This chapter is short, but it’s completely new — it was not part of the original version. Even though it’s brief, I managed to use one “random reader thing.” Deborah Zajac gave us Renoir. It just happens to … More The Delta Pearl 29 — Search
April 3, 2020 You know it’s unusual for me to do more than two posts in a week. However, when I learned the amazing Mark Bierman had posted a review for A Ghost in the Kitchen – Three Ingredients II, I had to share. I think Granny Phanny just did a back-flip. I hope you’ll visit … More Review of A Ghost In The Kitchen, Three Ingredients – 2, by Teagan Ríordáin Geneviene — Mark Bierman
Wednesday, April 1, 2020 Happy hump day, everyone! In keeping with the current, surreal version of “normal,” I wondered what my characters might think about social isolation. I’ve had a lot of characters. The one who “spoke” loudest about the topic is Birdie Devovo, heroine of Brother Love — a Crossroad. You see, Birdie experienced more … More Wednesday Writing — Characters & Social Isolation
