A Book Review of Poor Things, by Daniel Barnett
Find it on Amazon HERE.
Anyone who has read my reviews for a while knows that I’m a huge Daniel Barnett fan. I was thrilled to hear that his latest book, Poor Things, might fall into the YA spectrum. Barnett’s writing is pure poetry, and this one is his goriest, grittiest yet. I’d say it rests rather precariously on the young adult line, and it…

I Vowed I Would Never Make Hippie Dippy Jewelry, But…
I do now.
With spiritual stones and crystals, no less! Above, you see Carnelian, Tiger’s Eye, and Jade–all of them used for their healing properties.
How did this happen? It’s not like I don’t already have enough creative projects running simultaneously to ensure I never finish them. Maybe that’s the point: keep creating regardless of the end game.
But, why jewelry?
It all has to do with two…

A Character Study with L.J. Higgins
A Character Study with L.J. Higgins
L.J. Higgins’ dystopian trilogy takes place in a future world devoid of dreams…mostly. The MultiMind Corporation had released a Wristcuff to be worn over a microchip implanted beneath its host’s skin. Dreams were no longer created by the subconscious. However, there were those for whom this technology failed to work on: the Dreamers.
In book one, we met Amelia. She was a Dreamer, and the veil of…

SW: Michelle, thank you for taking the time to chat with me today. Tell me a little about Choices and your inspiration in writing it.
ML: Choices is about the idea that certain worlds…

A Book Review of Dawn of the Rebellion, by Michelle Lynn
Buy it on Amazon HERE. Visit the author’s website HERE.
Dawn Nolan is not someone you would think of as heroine material. She’s scared of thunder, scared of boys, shy and mousy. Her sister Gabby really doesn’t fit the bill either. She get’s pinched for lifting a bracelet within the first couple chapters. Drew is a spoiled rich kid, too good looking to trust or believe in. But author Michelle…

My Wicked Lover Finally Gets a Trailer
Not that Meg hasn’t deserved YouTube for a while, but darn it I had to learn to use Adobe Premiere before I could make a trailer! I guess you could say I was a video virgin, but now that I’ve popped my own cherry, how did I do? Sorry, just keeping to the book theme here and feeling a bit exhausted. Indie authors are super heroes.
So now I’m an artist, and author, and a videographer. Thanks again…
