This month is a very special month. It was June 2013—ten years ago—that I first started working on The Black Diamond and the Witch’s Curse! It’s hard to believe it’s been a whole ten years! I remember vividly. I was a few months removed from graduating from college. Other than my job working at K-Mart,
I got a confession to make… I can’t stand Spring. The main reason being my allergies! Ugh, this May, my allergies have been on overdrive! I don’t know about you, but it makes me so miserable. The sneezing, the congestion, the watery mouth, the itchy eyes, all of it is just terrible. It seems that

I know in last month’s blog, I said that this month’s blog would be about the magic of the series, but sometimes life gets
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Season’s greetings to this month’s blog post! I’m coming out a little late with this post because I was sick last week. I had a bout of food poisoning, but I’m feeling much better now. This month’s blog won’t be too long. I just wanted to take

First off, I want to send thoughts and prayers to everybody that’s been affected by Hurricane Ian. I know it’s a mess down in Florida right now and many people have lost their lives, homes, and livelihoods. Just stay strong and know that we are with you.
