Real Life with Lisa

Hey there!

Thought I would take a moment and catch everyone up on what’s going on with me.

This past Wednesday, I went in and had surgery on my left arm for ulnar tunnel. Please don’t ask me to explain it, I still can’t lol

Basically, I’m hoping this will fix the numbess in my hand and take one step closer to returning to me. Just one more piece to the ever growing puzzle of me.

Hope you all are…

Don't call it a comeback

Don’t call it a comeback

No, honestly, don’t. As I’ve openly shared, the depression is strong with this one, and I can’t force myself to write when nothing is going on with me or my writing during “the dark”.

Also, I probably picked the worst time to try to start blogging again. February. The month of love. Blech.

Yes I, a grown woman, just said blech in reference to Valentine’s day. I am mentally preparing for the well…

This is Forty

At the time that I wrote this, I have been 40 for 15 hours and 30 minutes. I’m sure that there are seconds involved but let’s just skip that part, eh?

Early today (yesterday) I remembered thinking with absolute certainty that I was not going to make it to this milestone birthday. I wasn’t sure why or how, but I just knew. So, I watched, in absolute disbelief and awe as my timeline continued to…

I was getting pretty fed up with links and generators with very general and overused weapons and superpowers and what have you for characters so:

Here is a page for premodern weapons, broken down into a ton of subcategories, with the weapon’s region of origin.

Here is a page of medieval weapons.

Here is a page of just about every conceived superpower.

Here is a page for legendary creatures and their regions of origin.

Here are some gemstones.

Here is a bunch of Greek legends, including monsters, gods, nymphs, heroes, and so on.

Here is a website with a ton of (legally attained, don’t worry) information about the black market.

Here is a website with information about forensic science and cases of death. Discretion advised.

Here is every religion in the world.

Here is every language in the world.

Here are methods of torture. Discretion advised.

Here are descriptions of the various methods used for the death penalty. Discretion advised.

Here are poisonous plants.

Here are plants in general.

Feel free to add more to this!

Writing is hard, yo.

Like you gotta be an actor, a director, an architect, a historian depending on what you’re telling, a psychologist, and on top of that all you gotta be eloquent and draw people in. Writing is hard, because it is everything.

Cover Reveal: Seeking Peace and A Haven in Peace

So I have sucked and haven’t really talked about the anthology I am a part of. It’s called the Peace Novella Series and if you are in serious need of a different, sweeter, romance these are the books for you.

Just Because

By Lisa Arrington

“Just because you don’t see it happening, doesn’t mean it’s not there. Just because you don’t agree with the way things are done, doesn’t make it wrong. Just because you agree, doesn’t make it right. Just because you feel your love is stronger than my love, doesn’t make it so. Just because I write these words, will not make another think. Just because of who I am, I must try.”

19 years ago today

At this time (thank you scheduler), I was introduced to this 6lb, 1oz baby boy who was just as confused about what was going on as I was.

When they placed him in my arms and he immediately stopped crying, I sobbed. I was 19, had this perfect baby and had no idea how I was going to do it.

That perfect baby helped me grow in so many ways I can’t list them all. It was me and him for nearly three…

Review: ShadowHunters Season 2

Yeah, you read that correctly. After being severely disappointed half way through season one and swearing I would never watch another episode… here I am lol.

I was still unhappy with season one but season two has been SO MUCH better! Especially the Jonathan/Sebastian storyline. Clace is awesome, Malec is awesome, hell I even love that there isn’t a Maya/Isobel triangle (yet?)! The actors seem so…

Review: Vampire Girl by Karpov Kinrade

You think it’s safe to walk alone at night. It’s not.

You think the only threat is other humans. It’s not.

Monsters are real. Demons are real. Vampires are real.

And I’m about to become one of them.

My name is Arianna Spero. I was an ordinary girl, living an ordinary life, until my mother lapsed into a coma. Now, I am her only hope. She made a deal with the devil, and on my 18th birthday he…

I'm alive, I swear

I’m alive, I swear

Personal matters have been a tad bit overwhelming and today I am in a fibro flare from Hell.

I have two reviews coming soon and reading two new books (plus finishing my own novella which is due soon).

Thank you as always for your patience and I’ll be back as soon as I can!

Review: A Whisper of Solace by K.J. Coakley

A Contemporary Romance. A Whisper Of Solace is a stand-alone novel.

Will

I read somewhere there were five official stages of grief.

Denial: I lived in this state for the last two years. If I didn’t allow myself to believe my wife was gone, then I didn’t have to accept it.

Anger: I was pissed…at everything.

Bargaining: I would continue on the journey that Sophia and I had begun—when I was ready.
