The Weather War cover reveal and preorders

Cover of The Weather War by Stephanie A. Cain: Two women face off on a beach; one holds two daggers, the other is calling lightning to hand. A storm rages in the background

I’m so excited to show you the awesome cover Nicole Cardiff created for The Weather War! I am in love with this cover. I have it as the wallpaper on both of my computers (even the one I don’t write on) because it’s so perfect. The figures on the cover are…

Magical Menageries #5: Equus is Now Available!

Equus releases today! I love my story, “To Ride a Steel Horse,” included in this anthology. On the face of it, you might think Demy is someone I don’t have much in common with: she’s a mathematician and a witch and bisexual, and I loathe math, can’t do the first…

WIP Wednesday

Lightning strikes in the distance over the ocean at night

Your Best Year 2017 Mid-Year Review

This year I’ve been using Lisa Jacobs’ Your Best Year 2017 as part of my business goal-making and planning. It’s a great book, although I confess I haven’t been using it to its full potential. I’ve also been following Lisa’s blog and Instagram accounts for added inspiration and accountability. This…

Adventures in Research: Steering the Ship

A couple of weeks ago, I went on vacation. A lot of it was sight-seeing and hiking, the sort of thing I like to do in my free time. But I also spent one day doing some very important Weather War ship research–which had the bonus of being amazingly fun. I…

Cover of Dream Eater by K. Bird Lincoln. A Japanese girl stands with her back to the viewer and looks over her shoulder. She is on a city street at night.

A couple of months ago I shared the cover of Dream Eater by K. Bird Lincoln, and hosted a blog post by her. At the same time, I was also given an e-ARC of the book to read. Since the book releases today, I want to tell you how much I…
