(Funny—this list is where I can really see where I went off the rails in April when that novel exploded into my brain. Hopefully, I will be able to find my way back on.) **Stuff I watched until April 24th** Full House – I felt like Ha Needo from 25/21 while happily bingeing this drama, and I was all…
A Gentleman’s Dignity – A fun drama about four male best friends who are now in their 40s. The actors’ chemistry is fantastic and the first 8-10 episodes are really great. But then it gets kind of drawn out until the relationships almost become tiresome. I would have rather had far more about the guys…the older generation and the…
Big – Starring the delightful Gong Yoo (my future husband). It’s the Freaky Friday concept – a quirky teen swaps bodies with an older man (Gong Yoo). The reason everyone doesn’t love this drama as much as Goblin or Coffee Prince is because the writers shot themselves in the foot. We, the watcher, 100% fall in love with “Gong…
My poem “Sunshine Times” was published today over at New Verse News! (It pairs very well with this parody clip they also shared from The Late Show). ENJOY!

A friend on my FB Author Page recently asked me to assemble a Top 10 list of my favorite K-Dramas. Totally my personal opinion. OMGAAAAAAAA…!

When asked if I was interested in writing “an alternate history about a young Marie Curie getting mixed up in dark fantasy shenanigans”, of course I said YES. (Dead Women in STEM FTW!) And then I proceeded to do the most research I have ever done for a short story. I read a myriad of books and articles on…

Once upon a time in the autumn of 2020, I wrote a fairy tale about true love and a storm chaser. I titled it “On the Edge of All This,” after the song I have words in on The Fireside Sessions. (Remember when we made that album with Gary Lightbody from Snow Patrol?) Finally–FINALLY–after much tribulation and many years,…
Our coffee truck for the fabulous and amazing Lee Dong-wook (omg I love him so much) arrived on the set of Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938 TODAY! Not only is my name on the banner in big, bold letters, but he SIGNED that banner. And I’m guessing my name is about eye-level. So you know he saw my name!…
