Nothing to see here…

While I scrambled to adhere to deadlines, my Editor-in-Chief pored over the pages I’d written in longhand while taking various red slashes to the sheaf of typed offerings.  I don’t know how I can continue working under these conditions. He is a truly merciless and cruel taskmaster…I mean, LOOK at him!  

The Odd Inspiration

I know, I know! I haven’t been here much the last couple of weeks or so. But, it’s all for good reasons! I have been up to my lovely hairline in edits for the novel.  Let me tell you: Writing the book was so much more fun! Editing is, for lack of a better word, a pain. It’s like (for those of you with children) having to decide which child is your favorite. I’ve written…

As a massage therapist, I hoped to learn what I could about how to help treat or alleviate symptoms of injuries after they took place.  Studying Kinesiology would teach me how those kinds of injuries might be prevented.  Though I had no…

Level Up!

I’ve enjoyed playing video games since I was very young.  It didn’t matter what platform the game was on: arcade, PC, console, and now mobile – you name it and I played it.  I’ve loved side-scrollers, first person shooters, MMOs, RPGs, MMORPGs…just give me all of it. But, my gaming life forever changed when I got my hot little hands on a copy of Final Fantasy VII.  Though it had the number seven in the…
