I had a feeling that my next update might be postponed due to the holidays. However, I thought it would be because I was too busy working - after all, the Holidays are shipping and deliver's peak time - not because our second car died. You would think that would give me plenty of time … Continue reading Trying to Find a Routine

One Year…
A year ago today I released Revenants, the first part of The Undying Ones, out in to the world. Originally I had planned to release Revenants with a new cover and a couple of fun little extras. However, earlier this week Amazon announced that they were merging Createspace with KDP (the platform many authors use … Continue reading One Year…
Stolen Away…
As per usual, things have been pretty busy in the Olson household. Boyo is currently out on summer break, but not for long! The extended school year program starts in a week and a half, and while it's not as long or as frequent as his normal preschool, it should help keep him busy. John … Continue reading Stolen Away…
A Dangerous Game…
I have found the magic pill that makes my lungs behave. It's called Zyrtec and it's a miracle. With one tiny pill, there is no more wheezing, no more coughing. And I finally have something resembling energy again. I still don't have time to write due to the crazy three year old running around, but, … Continue reading A Dangerous Game…
In Search of Success…
I often fall prey to this idea or feeling that if I just have the right pair of shoes, the right shirt, or the right nail color, that somehow things will just be better. I will be noticed by the right people. I will be more successful. And life will just be perfect. I'm sure … Continue reading In Search of Success…
Gone Girl…
It's been over a month and a half since I last posted - which I have a very good reason for! We moved! Instead of being crazy Californians, we are now officially card carrying weird Washingtonians! I meant to share the good news sooner, but it's been a strange and exhausting adventure. I feel like … Continue reading Gone Girl…
Not A Good Start…
I apologize for the lack of updates lately. I meant to post more, I had a plan, but things kind of just got out of control. Between catching that cold that's been going around (I was coughing for a month afterwards, it was horrible), the usual holiday craziness, and trying to get the bridesmaid's dresses … Continue reading Not A Good Start…
Distraction…
I'm still in the fog a little bit. But now it's a sewing fog instead of the 'I just finished a book and published it on time' fugue. My best friend from high school is getting married in March, and I've spent the last week working on the slip dresses for her bridesmaid dresses. Next … Continue reading Distraction…
What The Fugue…
I finished the pen name project two weeks ago. I edited it (the first part was already edited so that didn't take much), formatted it, created a cover, and sent it out into the world for people to enjoy. Because I did all of this in the space of a few days though, I was … Continue reading What The Fugue…
The Undying Ones Origins – A Haunted Place…
Many many years ago, in a little town called Buena Park, the areas first theme park, Knottās Berry Farm, decided to do a Halloween event featuring a local radio talent. The event was so successful that it came back the next year, and the year after that, and the year after that. As time passed, … Continue reading The Undying Ones Origins – A Haunted Place…
