It's that time of year again...already. I've no idea where 2017 went, but it's interesting to look back for a second and contemplate. Last year this time I hoped to self publish one of the adventures in 2017. It was my next big project. I hoped you could, "hold a hard copy of an adventure… Continue reading At the Door of December

Defining Success
My husband and I have this routine we follow almost every night before we drift into dream land. No planning went into this routine, no preconceived notion forms how it's followed but over the years it's developed into a habit.

Here's my top three: People are insanely generous and supportive. I'm an introvert. I'm… Continue reading Learning Curve
A Peek Inside The Tournament
Rain drips from the porch above, and the siding of the building weeps with moisture. For the moment, though, you’re dry. Your small, sheltered spot is just a protected piece of cobblestone. It’s a two-foot by two-foot section where the rain isn’t drenching the ground. There’s not even enough space to lie down, but the… Continue reading A Peek Inside The Tournament
It Comes with Rewards?!
Why yes, there are rewards for anyone who backs The Adventure on Kickstarter. This is one of the coolest parts of running a Kickstarter. First off, your name will end up in print. I.E. You'll be added to the acknowledgements of the book! From there, the rewards depend on the level at which you support… Continue reading It Comes with Rewards?!
