Here's an excerpt from the first in my Marshals series, Give Me Shelter! You can pick it up here! The heaviest part of the storm passed Bex by with a bottle of pinot on the coffee table and an old Steve McQueen movie on the TV, at least, until she lost power and then it was just her and the bottle. Considering her mood, she couldn’t think of better company. The Fergusons, or as she privately thought them ‘Manson-family Lite’, were giving her gray hairs. So much angst, rage, a

How do, friends? Welcome back for my thoughts, opinions, and whatnots about Friday's ep. As always, the opinions are mine, the spoilers are plentiful, and the mistakes unintentional. Now, on with the show... "I'm not Tony Stark. I'm not Dr. Banner." And you ain't Cap, either, so sitcher ass down, boy. I think the theme for this ep should be 'Fuck this, fuck that, fuck that guy in particular, and fuck his friend over there.' That is a fairly succinct summation of my emotions r

Tomorrow I turn 44. It's cool, I guess. I'm not really someone who gets bent outta shape about my age. I've been sick for so long and living on sheer spite, at this point it's more of a score card anyway. Lex 44: Life: 1. I share a birthday with a incredibly interesting and diverse group of folks, too. Quentin Tarantino, Nathan Fillion, Pauley Perrette, Sara Vaughan. I mean, that covers movies, sci-fi, jazz, and goth right there! I'm not sure there's a more apt conglomeration

Here is an excerpt from my paranormal romance, Dead & Disorderly, book 2 in the Behind the Blue Line series! You can pick it up here! Nahia stood at the cash register in her shop, Wellington’s Magickal Apothecary, surveying her domain with pleasure. Business was good in the downtown Indianapolis store, selling herbs for teas and tinctures, as well as crystals and other items for varying practices of religion and divination, and she enjoyed interacting with her clientele. Ever

Willkommen, Bienvenue, Welcome to the new thing I'm doing with the advent of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier finally gracing our TVs. I am so fucking excited to talk about it, I can't even stand it. So, first up, some housekeeping: all the opinions are mine. I own those and only those. Also, as the title would suggest, this bitch is chock full of SPOILERS. I'm going to assume if you're here, you probably don't need me to tell you to shield your eyes if you don't wanna know.

First up, I feel like I should apologize for who this show will make me become. My inner comic nerd is old, inveterate, and gives not a single fuck. So, there won't be an actual apology, just note that I recognize that there should be. Depending on how tonight goes, I may start up a weekly watch party that you can join and/or add a Saturday Spoiler Sesh where I dish about the previous ep and any thoughts and theories I might have. In case you couldn't tell, I am so flippin' e

This is an excerpt from Book 1 in the Behind the Blue Line series, The Ex File. You can get your copy here! It was less the walk of shame than the sprint of the scandalous. Ellie was out the door, out of the neighborhood, and on the road southbound for ten minutes before she allowed herself to think beyond fleeing the scene of the crime. As she hit the stoplight of her intended exit, she ran both hands down her face and tried to think. Her mind kept on this rollercoaster loop

Happy Birthday to this Ridiculous Foofybutt! May we both share many, many more!

Book 3 in my Winged Guardians Series. Get your copy here! XANDER It wasn’t the first time he’d lamented being tall, or at least, too tall to make a quick and discrete exit when it was necessary. ‘Extra tall, blond white guy’ was a description that stuck out in most people’s minds, and thus obviated him from undercover work. As a member of the King’s Guard assigned to escort the future Queen, though, thankfully, that wasn’t required. Except dammit, right then, he wished it was

Let me tell you about my week, friends. Started off feeling kinda crappy on Monday, and then ended up going home from the day job on Tuesday. Called in on Wednesday with a minor fever. Tested on Thursday and, long story short: I have Covid. Sigh. So far it's not terrible, but I could definitely use some comfort. Here are my top 5 Go-To Movies and Series for Comfort when I get stressed out or need a break. Number One with a Bullet is The Avengers. I don't know why, but this i

Get your copy here! VASILY Maybe he didn’t think this all the way through. His thought process had been for the two of them to blow off some steam. Maybe he wanted to take some time and relax after the intensity of the afternoon, a deep breath before they dove into the recon work necessary to tease out more leads. And he was, well, on vacation such as it was, he mused as he took off his shirt and stepped out the front door. The gathering shadows of evening collected in the sc
