Welcome back, everyone! It’s the middle of the week, which means now we get to start thinking about Friday. Let’s be honest, though, there are some weeks when I start thinking about Friday on Sunday evening. I’m already seeing Christmas stuff despite Halloween still being two weeks away. I know there’s the recurring joke that Christmas decor is getting put out earlier and earlier and I think that’s pretty accurate. This year, I’m pretty meh … Continue reading Links: Romance Coverage, Adaptation News, & More→
Happy Wednesday! (Is it Wednesday?) I have a vacation coming up in three weeks, but before that, I have to get through so many deadlines and things. Woof. I can’t tell if working toward a vacay makes me more motivated or just makes all the deadlines more annoying. The Thursday Murder Club adaptation comes out this week. My friend and I are doing a buddy watch over the weekend. I asked her what she wanted me … Continue reading Links: Censorship, a Subway for Cats, & More→
Welcome back to Wednesday Links! For me, February and August are some of the longest months…and I mean that psychologically. Time crawls at a snail’s pace and soon I will have to say goodbye to my blissful summer office schedule. We also have a little over a month left in SBTB Bingo and as someone participating, wow. I sure did a tricky job with these squares. You all have my sympathies! Sarah and I have … Continue reading Links: Data, Walks, & More→
Welcome back! (WingedNike, if you’re reading this, it’s officially Wednesday and you haven’t missed the post!) Life is life-ing. However, I’m grateful for reconnecting with friends lately. Lots of social activities on my calendar, and though I may grumble and gripe about having to leave the house, I haven’t regretted it yet. We did a Costco run last weekend, and I love finding new things to try. I get so excited to stock my fridge! … Continue reading Links: Romance Kickstarters, Adaptation News, & More→
Welcome back! I’m sad to announce that the allergies have started! My partner had the bedroom windows open all day yesterday and my sinuses pretty much exploded when I got home. I empathize with everyone else in the same boat. May your tissues be soft and your Benadryl naps be pleasant. We’ve also started vacation planning for the end of the year. It’ll be really nice having something to look forward to! Do you have … Continue reading Links: Quails, Reality TV, & More→
Welcome back to Wednesday Links! It doesn’t feel like a Wednesday and time seems to be going painfully slow this week. Last night, I had a bridal dress consultation with Alysia Cole, a bridal stylist I found on Instagram. It was a wonderful half hour call and I’m eager to see her suggestions on where to shop locally and what designers might work for the style I envision. I’m especially prioritizing dresses that allow me to … Continue reading Links: Cozy Fiction, Trading Cards, & More→
Welcome back to Wednesday Links! Time for a little check-in. How are we doing? I’m certainly spending more time with my partner. We had a lovely afternoon of gaming last weekend. We took turns doing runs of Slay the Spire; whoever wasn’t playing would be working on their laptop or reading. I’m eying the new Split Fiction game, because I really liked It Takes Two. Have any of you picked it up yet? I’m also in a cozy game … Continue reading Links: Faerie Smut, Cats, & More→

Hi Smart Bitches! Debut sci-fi romance author Amy Zed here! I’m still all starry-eyed from interviewing sci fi romance icon Jennifer Estep for Smart Bitches last month, so it’s hard to believe I’m here again to introduce you all to another amazing author! And, Bitches, this is gonna be a good one. Meg Smitherman and her work are truly unique. Meg first staked her claim in indie publishing back in 2022 with her dark romantasy … Continue reading Q&A: Amy Zed and Meg Smitherman→
Welcome back to Wednesday Links! How are we all feeling? I just received news that the event I’m moderating for Lovestruck Books is sold out and they’re taking only waitlist names now. I’m ecstatic but also want to vomit from nerves. But no, I know it’ll be great. Seriously, if you haven’t visited the space, I highly recommend it. Aside from that, my peachy pinky home office is coming together. Painting is done, my desk … Continue reading Links: Welsh Mythology, Sound of Music, & More→
Welcome back to links! How are we all doing? My brother and his wife finally landed back in the States for his new assignment and his wife is speedrunning American franchises. She loves trying out American chains. The biggest hit for her so far has been In-N-Out Burger and she’s discovered she’s not a fan of refried beans. As a reminder, she is Korean and my brother was stationed there for a while. She also … Continue reading Links: Slime, Meet Cute Bookshop, & More→
Welcome back to Wednesday Links! How is everyone doing? If you need some super cute news, I’ve managed to get Fig into a baby sling wrap so I can play video games or do work and still “hold” her. Before, she would yell at me and try to climb up my body until I held her like a baby. Does anyone have similar needy pets that you’ve designed clever little work arounds? I also appreciate … Continue reading Links: Exhibitions, Cat Games, & More→
