Today’s 12 Sentence Saturday comes from the second half of In the Red, where Jeremiah is continuously plunged into nightmares, though his reality isn’t much better. The Twelve: The lazy street stretched on to the horizon. The tiny cracks that shouldn’t have mattered became gaping chasms that spit toxic flames and smoke up at him. … More 12 Sentence Saturday: In the Red (Disc 2)
What can I say, I have a lot of love to give to this book. This week’s six comes from where we first get to see the alter-ego of Jeremiah Kensington (J.K. Asmodeus), in action on stage. The Six: One red foot swung up and knocked the guitarist in the back of the leg, sending … More Six Sentence Sunday: In the Red (yet more)
Because I’ve been talking about my love of rock lately, how about a 12 Sentence Saturday all about the band in my book, the Sons of Pandemonium? After all, we haven’t really seen much of J.K. Asmodeus yet. The Twelve: J.K. had never understood drummers, but he had to admire a guy who would attack … More 12 Sentence Saturday: More ‘In the Red’
So yeah, I do like trashy rock folklore. I also plain like rock (especially classic rock and eighties metal). So I suppose this begs a few questions, mainly… How does a fairly straight-laced, small-town chick with a classical music background end up getting into something so different? And what’s it like to write something so … More On loving rock and writing trashy
No, I don’t mean the showtime series. Today I’m thinking about one of my influences for In the Red. I’ve loved fairy tales since I was a little girl. I was immersed in all sorts of versions from a very young age. While I tend to lean towards Grimm, Eastern European, and Russian tales, I’ve also … More Before Red Boots there were Red Shoes
Time for another Six Sentence Sunday! And it’s a special Sunday, because it’s also my birthday! (I shall accept any tribute or gratuitous praise throughout the day…) Anyway, this week’s six again comes from my just-released first novel, In the Red! This happens at the very beginning of the book, when the protagonist Jeremiah Kensington … More Six Sentence Sunday: In the Red (more)
So apparently I was a week early with 12 Sentence Saturday…(eh, at the very least I’m dedicated. And an overachiever.) So this week I would also like to do twelve sentences from In the Red, but I suppose to be fair they should be a different 12. So let’s see… This bit happens at the … More 12 Sentence Saturday (for real): In the Red

At the risk of posting a lot of updates right in a row, I’d like to catch everyone up on some places I’ve been and some things I’ve been up to. Had a great time in a group podcast chat about the relationship between authors and reviewers and bloggers. A lot of great info got … More updates, edits, and new projects!
I know…it’s been a while. There are a few really good reasons for that – mostly it’s because of the projects I’ve been working on. I’m slowly trying to get back into doing more promotion and will be around here more often. I realize I have a lot of catching up to do and a … More Ali Talks Live: Monday 8pm EST
