Luna Moth Woman

There’s yet another cartoon from 2017 circulating on Bluesky, this one a WaynoVision bit of snarky genius, wherein a Puritan man lights a fire beneath a woman labeled “WITCH,” she being tied to a stake, while he says to her, “I’m the real victim here.” As discussed in two previous blogs posts this month published […]

I walked my pup this morning to the greatest Valentine’s gift of all, the glorious and majestic view of snow-capped mountains. A sight I love and had missed for many months, and a sign of hope that life-giving rainwater had returned to the Vegas Valley. My relief and joy was palpable. So was Bodie dog’s. […]

There’s a bit of snark recently making its way across social media from Bizarro Comics that depicts one-eyed, four-armed, green aliens with bulbous heads engaging with a woman walking her dog after disembarking from a flying saucer in the background. One extraterrestrial being says, “Take us to your leader.”  The human responds, “Only if you […]

First, let me just say on this Groundhog Day that I chose the accompanying photo because the critter looked as if they might be inquiring, “What the hell is wrong with you people?” I haven’t covered Groundhog Day in my Other Worldly novels or in this Luna Moth Woman blog, but I did once write […]

This post is for alien afficionados and for those avoiding the news agony avalanche by binge-watching retro shows this past week. The best part of the week for me was memes on social media about alien abductions. My favs were: At this point, if I get picked up by aliens, I’m just going to go […]

Aliens Watch, seventh in the Other Worldly series, has launched! Here’s your opportunity to travel to Saturn, aka Cultura and the agricultural planet if you’re an alien, and perhaps avoid what’s happening this month in the new year 🙂 You might even meet Bigfoot or a few other supposedly mythological creatures. As always, the paperback […]

For the majority of the holiday season, I tediously searched streaming sites for something to watch that would not render me agitated and distressed (like gratuitous violence and/or football), but also would not be vapid, boring, and ridiculously bland (like typical Hallmark Christmas fare). Often I will rewatch beloved movies or coveted TV series in […]

Now that the designated seasons of giving thanks and believing in Santa Claus and the spirit of Christmas have passed, it’s almost time for new year’s resolutions. But given it’s also what many don’t realize is only the third day of Christmas—of “Twelve Days of Christmas” carol fame—I’m still going to espouse on gifts, and […]

I’ve long had a fascination for the planets of our solar system, which is likely why I now write my Other Worldly novel series focused on the possibilities surrounding extraterrestrial life on Earth and beyond. But when it came to the actual study of astronomy? Not so much. As my Other Worldly  protagonist Rowan Layne […]

I’m getting ready to work with the cover designer employed by my publisher for the seventh time. There are myriad financial aspects to why I decided to continue self-publishing my Other Worldly series with BookLocker, but the best reason is working with their designer, Todd Engel, to keep a bit of consistency in the look […]
