ABOUT THE AUTHORS A.C. Gaughen is shamelessly addicted to staying up far too late (it feels like stealing time), diet coke (it burns so good), Scotland (stupid country stole her heart and won’t give it back. Interpol has been ineffective for prosecution) and thieves (so she technically isn’t that mad at Scotland). She is published by Walker Books […]
High School Reunions – Go or No?
Posted on October 14, 2014 4 Comments
I’m elderly. Did you know that? Because I bloody well didn’t realize this horrible fact until I was faced with my 20 year high school reunion. It was like a face-plant to a sliding glass door. Twenty YEARS? Where the hell did TWENTY YEARS go? I mean, I could have sworn we were just being […]

Posted on October 3, 2014 Leave a Comment
Last night I had an epiphany. One would think it would have been obvious to ME for a while now, but it wasn’t. You see, I am a self-published author, though I refer to myself as an “Indie” mainly because I operate like a business – like a small press. I am also a professional […]
Book Review – The Secrets We Keep by Trisha Leaver
Posted on September 19, 2014 Leave a Comment
While I do not have a sister, the idea of giving up one’s whole existence for the sake of another is both poignant and painful to absorb. In The Secrets We Keep by Trisha Leaver, readers travel through Ella Lawton’s life – that of a semi-outcast whose popular twin sister, Maddy, has cast her aside for […]
Why a NYT Bestselling author gave the money back.
Posted on August 29, 2014 Leave a Comment
I get asked all the time about being a self-published author. Why I did it, how hard was it, etc. I did it for many reasons, but like Karen Traviss, I too was a professional journalist for nearly 20 years. I was paid to write the story THEY WANTED ME TO WRITE. With UNDERTOW, I […]
Book Review – CREED by Leaver and Currie
Posted on July 8, 2014 Leave a Comment
Elijah Hawkins needs to die. Slowly. Painfully. Tortured until his pleads for mercy only serve to fuel my inner demon. Needless to say, I am not a fan of the man, which is why he was so perfectly written. When I started reading CREED by Trisha Leaver and Lindsay Currie, I was expecting to hide […]
