Rough blurb for Cauldron Bound

This is a very rough blurb for the Cauldron Bound. It *will* change. But it will do as a teaser for now. 🙂 I will post a more final blurb later on. For centuries the war between the clan have been on going. The war has fluctuated, but lately the Portal Clan has been doing […]

Exile is available at Ibooks

It took awhile, but Exile finally passed through Ibooks validation filter. ( Turns out that the cover image in the book was too large. Oops.) Click the cover to buy it! Part of me is hoping that fixing the cover will make it available at Amazon and BN too. I doubt that will happen, though. […]

A Snippet from The Cauldron Bound

In the first draft,  Moirin was an unnamed secondary character. Except I decided that it didn’t make sense having her just show up. So I am explaining why. Here is a longish snippet from the first scene. Moirin woke with a start, cold sweat running down her spine. She sat up and stared blindly at […]

The importance of Covers

To celebrate Halloween Fox Spirit books offered a free download ofHeart of Fire by J Damask yesterday. Which made me happy, since it had been on my wishlist for a while. Despite the godawful cover. I truly do not like the original cover. So much that I began to think of how to remake it. […]

Scrivener and revising

I am currently working at adding at least one new subplot to The Cauldron Bound.  I am having a great time, and the story will be *much* better. But I am once again wondering how on earth I revised before Scrivener. I am a linear writer. I begin at the opening and then I write […]

A late night lightbulb moment:

Last night I had a lightbulb moment that went something like this. Brain: So why did the Crone show up outside the cave? Me: *groans and tries to go back to sleep* Brain: Why did that warrior decide to help them? Me: …. Oh damn it. You want this simple novella to become a freaking […]

Fudge recipe

  So last week I made dairy free marshmallow fudge. It was tasty but too sweet for me. So I cobbled together another recipe from several different recipes that is more adapted to swedish palates. 2 dl milk 3 dl sugar ( I used extra fine grained) 60 g butter 1 (150 g) bag of  […]

Fudge!

I had one of those aha moments this moments this morning. I have been talking about making fudge for months, but I haven’t  done it.  Until I realised that it was much smarter to make fudge at Dad’s since he has a dishwasher. So I trudged off to buy the needed ingredients and a digital […]

My writing process

The revision  is going a bit slow, but I am making progress.  Which is the important part. Anyway, I have been  thinking about what I do during the various drafts, and thought I would list them here. First draft: Get the story down. This draft is riddled with plot holes, telling and awkward writing. Second […]

Where to buy Exile

Since Exile is available at more places than Kobo now, I thought I would list some of the places you can buy Exile. Sadly, Amazon isn’t one of them since Overdrive seems to not distribute to Amazon.  Or BN. ( Though BN might simply be very, very slow.) And yes. I am gnashing my teeth […]
