Dowser 5: A fav excerpt
I was making a quick addition to the Adept Universe Cookbook today – apparently, I forgot to mention WHEN to add the chocolate chips in the peanut butter and chocolate chip cookie recipe (thank you to Bronwyn’s hubby for letting me know) – and I stumbled upon this excerpt from Dowser 5 that made me […]
Memo, the illustrator who is working on the sketches for the Adept Universe bible, made some wallpapers of Mory and Ed from Misplaced Souls (Misfits 1). She formatted each of the following images for Android, iPhone X, older Phone, and tablet/desktop. Clicking on the corresponding link below each sketch should take you to the full-sized […]
Mory knits. Rather obsessively. And I thought it might be fun to share some of the patterns she either knits or wears in Misplaced Souls (Misfits 1). Mory’s go-to hat pattern: Snap by Tin Can Knits. Mory is knitting a slouch version of this hat with her own [K4/P4] check pattern thrown in for fun […]
Just in case you missed it, Misplaced Souls (Misfits of the Adept Universe 1) is now available for preorder and will release on Tuesday, April 14. I’m so excited to share Mory’s first full-length book (she also narrates a novella in Dowser 8.5) and I hope you enjoy the necromancer’s POV! If you’d like to […]
Author’s Note: The Misfits of the Adept Universe series directly follows the events in the final Dowser trilogy. And, in my opinion, it is best read after the Dowser Series, including Graveyards, Visions, and Other Things that Byte (Dowser 8.5). Otherwise … SPOILER ALERT! I stepped from the cab, lingering on the sidewalk with my […]

Taking place eighteen months after the events of Dowser 9, Mory launches a new series! – AMAZON – APPLE BOOKS – KOBO – BARNES & NOBLE – SMASHWORDS – Synopsis: Six years, three months, and two days ago, I was […]
As I was working through my final read of Misfits 1 (before sending it to the proofreader), this made me smile: Ed was perched on the edge of Tony’s desk, looking as though he was contemplating leaping off to get to me. He was wearing what appeared to be a tiny pirate hat on his […]
Sir Terry Pratchett (Wikipedia) passed away on March 12, 2015. I blogged about his passing here. On the anniversary of Sir Terry’s death, I would like to celebrate his work by giving away a copy of Wintersmith, which – completely out of order – was the first book of his that I ever read. A friend mentioned the book […]
