Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

It’s one of those days where life is throwing all of the minor inconveniences at me, and I’m frustrated at being frustrated by them.

Here’s a pic of some pretty snow, though.

Unpopular opinion: I actually enjoy making #thanksgiving dinner.

Probably because it’s a collaborative team effort between me and my One and Only.

I look forward to all the think pieces decrying CEOs having multiple CEO jobs and doing them simultaneously like there were about edge-case WFH scenarios of employees having multiple jobs at once.

Any minute now…

It's release day for Over Work! The third and final book in The Well Space trilogy. I had so much fun writing this world, and it's so satisfying to see the series complete. Check it out if you love: nerd/jock romances, knishes, food trucks, and opposites attract. #booksky #romancelandia

Having a difficult time lately. With everything going on around us, it feels rather tone deaf to post about my struggles with my WIP, the kids bringing home the plague, or to comment about the view from my office window.

Try to find your positive everyone.

Lovely Autumn day outside. Not too cold, not too warm. Reds, Oranges, & Yellows in the spotlight of the rising sun. It's relaxing and inspiring.

Now to add anxiety to the mix: Do I work on my synopsis, a new short story, or continue my WIP novel?

First World Problems, I guess.

I liked the movie. I liked the songs. I love that my youngest is obsessed with them... but I would very much like to get KPop Demon Hunters songs out of my head.

Golden is on repeat inside my skull and I can't replace it with anything else. 😵‍💫

I dream a dream where, in 12 days, readers will have The First Sin in hand, whether via ebook or print, and some will choose to carry it with them on their daily commute or to a vacation spot. They'll read it and they'll love it, and they'll say, WOW LOOK AT THAT COVER.

A mockup of The First Sin by Cheyenne Brammah. In the sweeping expanse of the Årdrakin Empire, the people fight and die for honor as elite warriors of the galaxy. But long ago, a prophecy was spoken that presaged the apocalypse. Everyone knows and fears the truth: one day, the empire will fall. Tårik is a guard for small, independent Clan Tsinna. Instead of pondering the end of his civilization, Tårik’s greatest concern is maintaining his honor while escorting a group of impertinent dignitaries across the treacherous Barren Gale. When the Mother Goddess speaks a passage from the prophecy to him, he has the good sense to be frightened, but he doesn’t heed the significance of Her visit. Then disaster strikes, and Tårik is branded as an exile, leaving him with no home, no honor, and no future. Forced into a desperate struggle for survival, all Tårik can focus on is living just one more day until luck—or maybe fate—gives him the opportunity to join a new clan. But even this is fraught with danger and uncertainty, and it takes him to an inhospitable world far from the empire where survival seems all but impossible. Faced with new challenges, including trying to navigate first contact with the low-tech locals, Tårik believes the prophecy can’t reach him. Yet it continues to loom, signaling that his fate and the fate of the empire are irrevocably entwined.
