Moving to Bloomington is the best thing that has happened to us in years. No doubt. We're a couple hours further from the Equator, but it's worth it. Tim will likely keep blogging here when he feels so moved, but for now, my plans for this site are to update when I have a new release or...

Ohio Scottish Arts School is next month?

I can’t believe it’s only a month until the Ohio Scottish Games, followed by Ohio Scottish Arts School. When I first discovered OSAS, I sought something to keep my harpist engaged with her instrument of choice. She loves a challenge! By chance, I found harpist Ashley Lake’s knowledgeable mother, Stephanie Taylor Lake, who let me in on Luneita Cotton’s tutelage. She’s just the right teacher for…

A cozy fantasy midlife mystery

Hey! Happy New Year! Have you heard of “cozy fantasy”? Oh, it’s divine. A lot of it is set in fantasy worlds, but some of it is more on the magical realism side, or low fantasy, where the magical world intrudes into our everyday life. Cue Miss Fitz! I’m now subtitling these as “Cozy Fantasy Midlife Mysteries.” AND, obviously an entirely new aesthetic! I really loved the original artwork I had…

Harping on the harp

My child is playing her fingers raw preparing for her first ever solo gig, and I am so proud, while also SO the bad guy, because I am not letting her slack. She’s really GOING for it and her little fingers are growing callouses, but it feels like she’s conquering something within herself. It’s difficult to say, as a third party, but it’s beautiful to watch. And, yeah, I am the bad guy, but I…
