Welcome back to Make Me Laugh Wednesday, or Hump Day Ha Ha’s, or whatever you want to call it. The last joke is for Supernatural fans, and it is my favorite.
Winter Wonderland
Today’s post is dedicated to the winter wonderland most of us have been living in for the past few months. By wonderland, I mean: 1. I wonder if I’ll ever see the grass again. 2. I wonder if I’ll be able to stop wearing Cuddle Duds under my regular clothes any time soon. 3. I wonder when the air will stop … Read More
Wondering About Wednesday
I started Monday morning by breaking my car key off in the ignition of my car. Before you assume I have biceps of steel, allow me to explain. The key was fifteen years old. It was the kind with the plastic clicky-fob-thing that allows you to unlock your door from ten feet away if you’re lucky. Anyway, the plastic fob … Read More
Minion Meme
I love the Minions from Despicable Me. Today I am sharing some Minion Meme humor.
Meet Jaxon Westgate
In the Going Down In Flames series, Jaxon Westgate is the son of the man Bryn’s mom jilted. He’s been raised to despise her because she damaged his family’s reputation and standing in the dragon community. He insults her, and she shoots a fireball at his head. After they’ve faced trials together, they come to an uncertain sort of mutual … Read More
Trial By Fire
I feel like sharing today, so here is the rough draft version of the first chapter of Book 3 in the Going Down In Flames series, Trial By Fire. “Jaxon, I swear to God, if you don’t stop bitching, I will set your hair on fire.” Bryn spoke through clenched teeth as she smiled and nodded at the students … Read More
Brain Candy – Revisited
Wednesday snuck by me this week, so I’m revisiting a past post about why I write what I write. What do you want from a book? I want a fast-paced, fun, roller-coaster-ride of a read. Do you like cliffhanger endings? In one of my favorite series, The Morganville Vampires, every book ends with a main character dying or on the … Read More
All that Glitters
I was lucky enough to be asked to do an interview for Glitter magazine. Today I’m sharing the questions they asked and my answers. You can find the link to the original article at the end of this post. GLITTER: Tell us 5 random facts about yourself. CHRIS: I have 3 dogs, so my entire house is furry and so … Read More

Southern Illinois Weather Woes
I live in Southern Illinois where the weather ranges from Holy-Crap-It’s-So-Cold-I-Can’t-Feel-My-Fingers to Holy-Crap-It’s-So-Hot-That-My-Waterproof-Mascara-Is-Running-Down-My-Face. There are occasional nice days in October where we hit that magical fifty to seventy degree mark where it doesn’t hurt to breathe, you can feel all your appendages, and your makeup actually stays on your face. Today is not one of those days. Today it is 34 … Read More

It’s make me laugh Wednesday. Enjoy.
Bookish Humor
Today’s post features a little bookish humor. The last one is my favorite.
Author Release Week Mania
My husband was a little concerned for me, since Bridges Burned (Book 2 in the Going Down In Flames series) came out on Monday. Apparently, I acted a bit manic when Going Down In Flames came out last June. Something about hitting refresh over and over again to check for reviews on Amazon and Goodreads and freaking out when people didn’t … Read More
Author Nerves Explained by Supernatural Gifs
How does an author feel the day before a book release? Bridges Burned releases tomorrow, so I thought I’d explain author nerves through Supernatural gifs. At first, you’re excited that your book is about to be released into the wild. Then you click over to Goodreads to see if anyone with an advanced reader copy has … Read More
