Today, my luvs, I shall list 10 blog post titles. These titles are for you. You may use them however you like. It would mega-cramazing if, when you use them, you’d link back to me so I can come read what you wrote in response to my titles.
If you don’t link back to me, I will send my legion of Evil Elves to tattoo “I’m a nerd” on your forehead.
Today, I bring you the badness of truly horrid writing. Because, really — there are so many cramazing, beautiful works of written art out there, you don’t want to be like all of them, do you?
I have questions for you, my dears. Pick a few and share your thoughts in the comments. Or answer all the questions, if you dare. Or ask some of your own. Who knows what might happen if you people start talking to each other as well as to me? ; )

As I’ve mentioned before, the time when I wasn’t noveling was one of the most depressing, despairing times I’ve ever gone through. The good news is that the experience led to one of the most uplifting, life-changing conclusions I’ve ever reached: If I want to feel content, if I want to be able to function …
Greetings, my lovelies! A few weeks ago, I challenged you to tell me what kind of music demons listen to. If you click that link, you’ll see the whats and wherefores, but here’s a brief recap: In my novel Colors of Deception, the demonic villain has a predilection for the music of rock group INXS. …
This was gonna be an addendum to a blog post, but then it turned into a minor epistle, so I decided to give it its own post. What we’re talkin’ here, my darlings, is news. Goody! Comment Notifications Several readers have mentioned that even though they subscribe to comments on my blog, they don’t receive …
Or: A Blogging Voice Is Hard to Come By If you’ve tweeted with me recently… …or if you’ve read comments I’ve left on others’ blogs… …or if you’ve paid close attention to my blog posts over the last month or so, …you know that I’ve been worrying about my vision and my voice. When I …
I stepped into the coffee shop and knew three things in an instant. There were humans everywhere — flesh in motion, sweat glistening, blood pulsing. There wasn’t a hint of colors.
