That’s right – In the Red could go into print! That means you could hold a copy in your own hot little hands! It’s one of the many things No Boundaries Press is doing to expand…but the only way you’re going to be able to see my novel in print is if you vote … More In the Red…in print?!
For those who want to follow along, the first leg of the In the Red tour is here! It kicked off Sunday, so we’ve got some catching up to do! Below are links to posts that have already happened, and a heads up on when the others are scheduled for. As soon … More In the Red Official Blog Tour: First Leg
I got into Led Zeppelin relatively late in life. I don’t know why I put off listening to them in earnest for so long, but once I heard them, there was no going back. For one, I love the blues and I love how well they use it and fuse it with rock in their … More Music Monday: A Whole Lotta Zeppelin Love
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)
It’s fairly obvious that my love of fantasy and my love of music really fuel In the Red. That comes across pretty blatantly, and I probably don’t even have to say that’s the case anymore. Yet there’s something else that fueled that story, or rather something that I discovered part way into the piece. In … More Fantasy, Rock n’ Roll, and…Getting Spiritual?
Those who know me know that there is one musician, one artist, one creative person…and then there is everyone else. I think we all have one particular influence that burns into our lives and helps us realize what all is possible. For me, that person is David Bowie. I realize that he’s that way for … More Music Monday: And Along Came Bowie
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
Admittedly one of the influences of In the Red was something that I’m not always proud of liking. It’s something I probably shouldn’t like as not only a woman, but a strong, independent woman. But you know what? I LOVE this. I love it so hard I don’t care if it’s probably hypocritical or, at … More Rock n’ Roll Reading
