It’s been some time since my last #FridayFast5, but it’s a fresh month, so let’s dive right in! 1. With Love, Jordan Recently in a conversation with other authors about how we first got into writing Romance the discussion turned to Fan Fiction, and how so many got their start there. I never thought of…
It’s 2016, and a new season of The X-Files is about to start. Yes, you read that right. Look. I don’t care if this ends up being “The New Adventures of Old Mulder and Scully” I’m excited about this. So is the husband, who enjoyed watching The X-Files as much, possibly more, than I did. …
5 Days from now, what once was fantasy shall become reality when a new (however brief) season of the X-Files airs. To celebrate, I’m sharing my TOP 5 Favorite X-Files Episodes. Before I begin, a caveat or two: while I am a long time fan of the series, I never could get into the myth-building…

Soooo…in my first year of teaching high school, my classroom was across the hall from another new English teacher, we were friendly to each other as we stood outside our doors during the passing periods, joking with students as they walked in to our rooms, reminding them what homework was due so they could race…
St. Patrick’s Day is fast approaching, only 5 days to go! If you are looking for a fast, sweet, and easy treat to make for this holiday, why don’t you get the help of a leprechaun? You know the one I mean…his treasure consists of a stash of a rainbow’s worth of colorful marshmallows, let…
When I asked what my least favorite month of the year is, I can answer without hesitation – it’s February. I’ve spoken on my distaste for this month before. Lucky for me, there are a few bright spots of warmth in this bitterly cold, dark (and blessedly short) month to help get me through. Of…
