Jove’s Rambles
The Sun Shines
The only person to ever knock on my door and ask for a cup of sugar was a skinny little boy who recited Shakespeare with passion and sang show tunes at the top of his lungs because, really, the whole cul de sac--no, I dare say, the whole neighborhood--did need to hear his beautiful voice. … Continue reading The Sun Shines
A little taste of Cake
Check it out, y'all! I recorded a short excerpt from Cake and am super excited to share it with you. Cake, if you're not familiar, is a sweet (and sexy) little romance about two women who meet at a wedding. If, after you listen, you simply must run out and buy a copy for yourself, … Continue reading A little taste of Cake
The Cool Thing About Being an Editor
Being an editor is pretty much the best job ever. I like it almost as much as being a writer. It feeds that restless, part of me that must tell stories. No, they're not my stories, but it's my job to polish them up and make them shiny. It is an honor to be trusted with … Continue reading The Cool Thing About Being an Editor
Why Have Them?
If you have kids, there's been at least once in your life when you've asked yourself, "What was I thinking?" Face it, parenting is hard work. Like, really hard work. It's sticky and loud and involves countless bad smells. And, the person (people) you're working for (because, seriously, you work for your kids) are often not … Continue reading Why Have Them?
KD Williamson Blurs Some Lines
Before I get started, let me give a big shout out to Jove Belle for letting me rent her space so to speak for the day. She’s been my editor for the first two books in the Cops and Docs Series, and hopefully for the third as well. In a couple days, she has her … Continue reading KD Williamson Blurs Some Lines
Flipping a Switch
For those of you who have followed my blog for a while, you know far more about my family than you probably ever wanted to know. Parenting is a carnival ride on the very best days. The other days, it's still a carnival, but the ride is busted and there's a two-year-old with a lollipop … Continue reading Flipping a Switch

My latest lesbian romance, Cake, is officially available for pre-order on the Ylva Publishing website! You can order your copy HERE. I hope everyone buys a copy. I hope everyone buys TWO copies. Why?

Care Packages
I've reached a point where I have no easy answer when my family asks what I want for my birthday. This year, I requested some time from my kids. So, this past weekend, we all got together with some supplies that Tara and I have been saving, and put together care packages. We included some … Continue reading Care Packages
