Get Wicked with Entangled Blog Hop

Chrishome

It’s almost Halloween. Candy, costumes, and scary movies abound. While I’m a fan of the first two the last I avoid at all costs. I don’t do scary movies, which is weird, because I love Supernatural. Okay, maybe Sam and Dean Winchester have something to do with the shows appeal, but still it is a suspenseful show featuring demons and … Read More

An Introvert In Vegas

Chrishome

I think most authors are introverts who learn to go forth and network with other writers, readers, and bloggers. I spent the weekend in Vegas to attend a Book Festival. I spoke on my first panel, and it was terrifying and exciting at the same time. I kind of feel the same way about Las Vegas. The flashing lights, crowds of people, … Read More

Supernatural Deanmon Season

Chrishome

Supernatural starts in two days. Cue fangirling.   Season ten has been referred to as Deanmon season, since Dean is coming back as a black-eyed demon. Dean has always been the quintessential bad boy.

My Crazy Summer

ChrisFor Writers, home, Paranormal Young Adult, UtopYA

This was an exciting, crazy summer. I got on a plane by myself and flew to Nashville for the #UtopYA2014 conference. It was awesome and inspiring and exhausting. Then I took a plane to Las Vegas for the Entangled publishing conference. It was also awesome and inspiring and exhausting. I wish the two events hadn’t happened back to back because … Read More

Social Media Madness

ChrisFor Writers, home, Paranormal Young Adult, UtopYA

My first book, Going Down In Flames, came out June 30th. Since then I have been tweeting and sharing and tumbling and pinning my brains out in an effort to increase my social media presence. I’ve done my best to keep the posts about my actual book to 25% of my content because no one likes a spammer. The rest … Read More

Fun Food Fantasies

ChrisFor Writers, Paranormal Young Adult

What’s your food fantasy? Before your imagination veers into R rated territory, I’m not talking about a weekend rendezvous with Channing Tatum and a case of chocolate syrup. I’m talking about the food you would eat if there were no repercussions. I would eat an entire bag of double stuffed Oreo’s every day, because Oreo’s are like sunshine for my … Read More

The Wonderful World of Author Swag

ChrisFor Writers, UtopYA, writers conference

I’ve spent an inordinate amount of time and more money than I intended on author swag. What is author swag? It’s the items authors produce and give away to promote their books. Before I embarked on my journey into swag, I had no idea how many options there were and how complicated it could all become. There are evil websites … Read More
