My husband runs a Dungeons and Dragons game on Twitch every Tuesday that has come to be known as Winds of Chaos. Due to my work schedule (and load), I’ve been unable to participate as a regular player (though I have done a cameo and hope to do more in the future). As a writer, …
During the summer of 2020, after the pandemic sent us all into deep lockdown, I finally convinced one of my best friends to start streaming on Twitch. She needed a way to interact with other people, and she’s always been fond of the stage. Twitch gave her a place where she could be herself, try …

Since Tumblr seemed to favor bite-sized content, I thought this would be the perfect way to generate quick, creative content for my Tumblr feed. I quickly learned the error of …
A few weeks ago I mentioned that, while several characters pop up fairly often around here, the major characters in the Celestial Serenade haven’t really. I wrote most of the first two trilogies in the series before I started this blog in earnest. And while I spend a lot of time getting to know other …
This is an indirect follow up to Mirror, Mirror On the Wall, which tells the story of what happened to the evil queen’s magic mirror after the events of Snow White and The Spindle of a Spinning Wheel, which features a follow up to the item post Sleeping Beauty. Possibly my favorite installment, If the …
