I cried when I wrote this poem about a person I love very much. #poetry #poetsofbluesky #blueskypoetry #blueskypoets

Saturday poem on Sunday...

At last (and only 3 weeks late 😜) the Kindle version of my first novel "Bear Witness" is now available on Amazon. a.co/d/01ZPWWQM (Print version should be available in about a week)

OK, Universe... Taking Dolly Parton and Tim Curry within 24 hours of each other is just wrong. I'm very angry with you.

Reposting, because perhaps the gift hidden inside asking for forgiveness is remembering how sacred it is to give it.

Thank you to The Poetic Land for publishing my poem "Love In the Shadows" thepoeticland.com/love-in-the-...

So, of course the launch of my first novel wouldn't go as as planned. 😆 Unfortunately, issues with Kindle formatting have delayed the launch of "Bear Witness" until tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience, but I promise, it's coming.

Sometimes, the poems are long. Sometimes, there's a lot to say.

Saturday before the launch of the novel... of course I have a new poem!

Books change us. Writing this one certainly changed me. #BearWitness #novel

Five days. I've laughed with these characters. I've cried with them. Soon you'll meet them too. #BearWitness #novel

Favorite writing quote: "The heart always finds its way home." That became one of the guiding ideas behind this novel. #BearWitness #novel

One week. I still can't quite believe I'm saying that. Thanks to everyone who has walked beside me every step of the way. #BearWitness #novel

Another Saturday, another poem...

What would you risk for the people you love? Everything? Nothing? That's the question at the heart of Bear Witness. #BearWitness #novel

Meet Misha. Moody. Fearless. Intensely loyal. Orphaned as a young wearhwolf, he thought he'd never feel loved again. Until he found his second family with Rhys and Kenji. #BearWitness #novel

Meet Kenji. Brilliant. Hilarious. Proudly LGBTQIA+. An Obake who doesn't take things too seriously. Unless his friends are in danger - then he'll risk everything to protect them. #BearWitness #novel

Halfway there. Thank you for following this journey, cheering me on, and believing this story deserved to be told. #BearWitness #novel

16 days. #BearWitness #novel

For when it's one of those days... #poetry

I hope readers come for the magic. But I hope they stay for the people. 17 days. #BearWitness #novel

Every scar tells a story. Some are visible. Some change everything. 18 days. #BearWitness #novel

Question for readers: What's your favorite paranormal creature? (I'm partial to wearhbears...)

If your favorite romances leave you smiling and crying...we're probably reading the same books. 20 days. 🐻📖 #BearWitness #novel

One prophecy. One impossible choice. One love story that refuses to surrender. Three weeks. #BearWitness #novel

The most difficult scenes to write weren't the battles. They were the quiet moments where two people slowly learned how to love and trust each other. 22 days. #BearWitness #novel

Some families are born. Some are chosen. "Bear Witness" is about both. #BearWitness #novel

Meet Gennie. She spent her life believing monsters looked one way. Then she discovered the real monsters wore human faces. 24 days #BearWitness

Meet Rhys Thorne. Strong. Loyal. Protective. The kind of man who would carry the weight of the world before letting someone he loves suffer alone. 25 days. #BearWitness
