Decluttering

In preparation for our big home project (as well as an effort to appease our HOA), we’ve started to throw out as much old stuff as possible without, you know, trying to replace them. It’s amazing the amount of crap a couple can gather over seven years. When my husband and I got married, we …

Life with Kids

I try to do my writing in the wee hours of the morning or very, very late at night, to minimize the interruptions. Not to say that I can’t do any writing at all when my children are awake, but it will usually go something like this: Me: *tippity tappity tap* (I have a mechanical …

My First Post! Jaeth’s Eye Summary, and Other Things…

Now begins an epic story with roots reaching beyond the end of another. Here, a father swears vengeance for his slain children; there, a peasant girl struggles to feed her family. A wayward prince finds his way home and a continent is about to be torn asunder. And Kefier is only beginning to understand how it all began the moment he stood on that cliff and watched his brother fall…”
