Book Review: A Court of Thorns and Roses by Maas
Posted on May 19, 2015 Leave a Comment
A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah Maas So, I’m gonna preface this by saying that I would not put this book ANYWHERE near a teen shelf. This is solidly New Adult, which is 17 / 18+ – basically a heavy duty (HEAVY DUTY) PG-13, more likely soft R rating. But here’s the […]
Music as Author Muse
Posted on April 9, 2015 Leave a Comment
I’ve begun sharing my playlist with my husband. It was probably a mistake, because now he thinks I have a split personality based on my music choices. For kicks and giggles, I scrolled through my playlist for the past Undertow books and, well, yes – it appears I’m musically bi-polar. My musical preferences range wildly, but […]
Saying Farewell

Someone once said that, to say goodbye to a character that has been part of you for years, is like bidding farewell to a piece of you. As I write the last book in Eila’s story, I know it’s true. I have no doubt that when I’m done with the final book in the UNDERTOW […]
The Scarlet Trilogy by A.C. Gaughen
Posted on March 8, 2015 Leave a Comment
I have a bit of a confession to make: I owned Scarlet for over a year before I pulled it off my bookshelf and set to reading it. And I bought Lady Thief before I ever read Scarlet because I was a sucker for the idea behind the story and the breathtaking covers. But I still […]

Cruel Summer’s Cape Cod Guide for Teens
Posted on February 19, 2015 Leave a Comment
It is no secret that all of my books in the UNDERTOW series are basically a teenager’s guide to Cape Cod. What to do, where to go, how to nag your parents. Well – okay, maybe not that last one, but if you do, don’t point fingers at me. In UNDERTOW, readers were introduced to […]
Writing Real Characters

So, lately I’ve not been here, on my blog, because I am trying to get the final edits to CRUEL SUMMER done, so you can get your hot little hands on Kian, Ana, and MJ on March 16th, 2015 at the Girl Power Author Panel (deets to come). But I needed to squeeze in some […]
Common Core, I SMITE THEE!
Posted on December 28, 2014 Leave a Comment
UNDERTOW HAS A RESOURCE GUIDE! I had many, MANY requests from teachers for an educator’s guide for UNDERTOW. After much procrastinating (and perhaps rolling around on the floor, pitching a hissy fit), I finally sat down and made one. OMG, no wonder authors hire OTHER crazy people to do this. Anyway, here it is for all you hard […]
