At the end of May, my play Sanctuary will have a “rehearsed reading” at the Seven Dials Playhouse! It’s tentatively scheduled for 22 May at 2pm, but that’s subject to change depending on the cast and director. Before I started delving into the world of playwriting, I never heard of a rehearsed reading. Had no…

The Last Book
This is it, my friends. In April I released my final book, a story about survival and living with PTSD called One Reason to Live. To date, I’ve published 12 books, and I think that’s a good place to stop. My journey as an author has been a tumultuous one, and I frankly just don’t…
Survival Memoir Release!
This is it folks. The first book I’ve published in nearly a decade. It was a very difficult decade, thus the pause. Throughout the past ten years, I’ve survived assault, loss, and divorce…and rebuilt my life from a very dark place. During that time, reading other survivors’ stories kept me going. They helped me realize…
Love Bombing & Oxytocin Addiction

About Avalon Revamped: Arthur Tudor, a vampire for nearly four-hundred years, finds himself bored with life and…
Elimination Diet: Day 24
Day 24 with only 4 days to go on the 28-day Elimination Diet. Today, tomorrow, and Wednesday, I’m re-introducing dairy to see if there is a major reaction. Like I said last week, I pretty much have reactions to everything, no matter what. The one thing that has reduced considerably is the mood changes and…
O. M. Grey Talks Four-Fold Twitter Approach
My alter-ego, O. M. Grey, wrote a post for Erotic Romance Publishers on my Four-Fold Twitter approach. Here’s an excerpt: Sex sells. At least that’s what we hear over and over again, and it does to an extent. Erotica sells quite well to a specific audience, but then mystery sells well to a specific audience,…
