When I finished and published Eternally Wild, I planned on it being a stand alone novel. However, things do change. After a 3 star reviewer commented on a few things that bothered her, and then again finding some inspiration from dreams about Michael and Jon (again), I decided to attempt to write a book from Johnnie Vega's point of view. Honestly, after dating an alcoholic and learning quite a bit about the struggle to overcome addiction, I knew that I did gloss over Johnnie

I can't believe it's been this long since I've written a blog post. Where does the time go? Most of it to my day job. And then there have been concerts and cons with my daughter!

When my editor told me to go to this stock photography site and choose cover models, I honestly did not take the time I should have to really search for something I loved. I settled for like. The a

Some people may read "A Melody for Adrian" and think to themselves, "Where are the drugs? These guys are in a punk rock band, they should be doing drugs?" I made a decision to not have drugs in the first book (although there will be some issues in book 2) for a simple reason. I've never done any illegal drugs and have zero experience with them. Therefore, I didn't want my band to have anything to do with them either. The problem of course is making that believable since d
