I was just sucking away on some deliciously smooth Boa Sentenca (Cacao Barry) while I cleared out my inbox when it occured to me that it might be a little early in the morning for chocolate, no matter how tasty. And yep, turns out it’s 8:56am as I type this blog post. Chocolate before 9am […]

I'm a writer. I also bake. And knit. A lot. My novels are available anywhere ebooks/paperbacks/audiobooks are sold online. Find more info on my blog: http://www.madebymeghan.ca
GIVEAWAY CLOSED. Winners: Megan from Chicago, Linda from Wisconsin (which might be a first for me), and Michelle from New Jersey! To recap a second time. I had fifteen misprinted paperbacks. The covers of the paperbacks were all oddly tinted to various degrees with pink and red. And, in a few, the top and bottom margins shift down […]
GIVEAWAY CLOSED. WINNER JANINE from KANSAS! If you pay close enough attention to the acknowledgments at the back of my novels, or my rantings on Facebook and Twitter, you will recognize Scott Fitzgerald Gray‘s name. He is my editor. He has edited every single screenplay I deemed worthy of rewriting from the early-2000s through to […]
Happy Easter 2015
The Easter bunny (aka Michael) brought me this T-shirt this morning. I bought him a pile of white chocolate from Purdy’s, which is a huge gesture, because – as you know – I don’t eat white chocolate. Okay, okay! I might have slipped some peanut butter chocolate eggs and yolk eggs into my checkout cart […]
I’ll give you three guesses …
… but you’ll only need one. I just finished something. My right hand is aching so fiercely I can barely type this, and my fingers are covered in green ink. My brain feels like mush. I really need a heavy dose of chocolate and to bake something, stat. I’m also off-the-wall pleased with myself. Can […]
GIVEAWAY CLOSED. WINNER: WENDY FROM ALASKA! To recap. I have fifteen misprinted paperbacks. The covers of the paperbacks are all oddly tinted to various degrees with pink and red. And, in a few, the top and bottom margins shift down or up around the halfway point. Since I’m a fan of decluttering, I thought I should give some of […]
Or, as Jade will undoubtedly refer to them in Dowser 5, ‘the holy trinity of chocolate bars,’ which will be terribly sacrilegious. However, we will probably excuse her because she’s had a really bad day. I know this because I’ve written the bad day part, but not the chocolate bar part. I teased my Facebook page […]
This seriously pretty proof for Shadows, Maps, and Other Ancient Magic (Dowser 4) showed up last Thursday, but I thought I would wait until it was available for purchase before mentioning it. As with all the Dowser paperbacks, the cover and the page break knife image were designed by the lovely and talented Elizabeth Mackey. […]
GIVEAWAY CLOSED – MISSY FROM NEW ENGLAND IS THE WINNER THIS WEEK! YAY! So I’ve been spoiled this week. I treated myself to a walking treadmill for my standing desk, then Michael decided that he was going to repaint my office along with reconfiguring my desks. We just threw the office together when we moved here in September […]
First egg!
We moved to Salt Spring Island last September on an adventure. As this adventure unfolded, I decided I would like chickens for the garden … why not dive in? And, yes, going to the Fall Fair might have had something to do with this sudden desire. So chicks aren’t particularly easy to source in the fall, […]
