August and flash fiction #8 is here! Whew! Yup, I'm still on board for 'Nathan Burgoine's 2018 Flash Fiction Challenge. This month we had to write a ghost story that takes place in a tobacco shop that featured an earring as our object. Now, I don't write paranormal. So, I imagined ghosts in my own …
It's June and once again I'm partaking in 'Nathan Burgoine's super-fun 2018 flash fiction challenge! This month we had to write a fantasy story, set in a junkyard/scrapyard, featuring hot chocolate.

So, the other day I announced the title of Book Two in my post called Life in Another ’Cosm: Jinny from the Blog. While I am not accidentally writing this novel as I did with Life in the ’Cosm, I did accidentally start this story. You see, I had no idea there'd be a second book, let alone a …
