I pray my wish will come true, for my child and your child too

Sunday catchup! Sorry I missed last week's. That's what happens when you catch a cold ten days before Christmas and have to do your darndest to fight it off in time. I don't recommend my solution - eating a package of raisin pastry and sleeping as much as I can - to everyone, but it worked for me.

Don't forget that if you want to show your support for what I do, my Amazon wish list is up and running, and ebooks make great last-second gifts! More after the cut.

Willow Wednesdays: May the Fourth (plus 96) Be With You

Welcome to Willow Wednesdays! Featuring art by Willow, the cover artist for the Monkey Queen series, with her kind permission! Read on after the cut for more!

and I'm gonna blog high as a kite by then

Sunday catchup time! Just make sure you've got your hand sanitizer ready; whatever flu-like bug I've picked up this week is tough and contagious. I apologize in advance if this infects the internet. More after the cut.

Rejected Peanuts Specials All-Stars

See what didn't make the cut...after the cut!

Max

I've mentioned before that the Doubleclicks are a nerd-pop-folk-rock sister duo, but I don't talk enough about their secret weapon...Max, the cat keyboard. They've just released a cover version of a certain theme most of you know, and Max is in full force here. (Perfect music for your next trip to Cattooine...)

But I still think I like this cover version they did of a certain theme most of you know even better.

Good grief! More rejected Peanuts specials

After the cut...the shows THEY didn't want you to see!

just the sweetest song my blog has ever known

We'll start this Sunday catchup with a quick reminder: Talk to me! If you have any comments about the Monkey Queen books, the short stories, the setting in general, Willow's art, penguins, what Disney Infinity figures should be next, or anything else I discuss here, feel free to leave a comment here! I really don't bite, and I'd love to hear from you! (You can also tweet me, or leave a comment on the Facebook page.) More after the cut.

towards the blog you left so very far behind

Happy first Sunday catchup of 2016, everyone! Don't forget that you only have until Wednesday to enter the Goodreads giveaway to win one of three signed paperback proof copies of Redblade, the new Monkey Queen novel! Good luck to all who've entered, and I'll see you after the cut.

Disney Infinity: The Twelve Parsecs Of Christmas

Season's Greetings, Merry Christmas and all that! I wanted to remind everyone that there's still time to read "Best Christmas Ever", the short story about Michiko and Beth's first Christmas as roommates, before all the snowman cookies are gone. Pour an iced peppermint mocha and enjoy!

And I realized that we haven't heard from the little gold milk chocolate bear in a while. Well, remember when Han Solo and Chewbacca made the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs? Have you ever wondered what they were smuggling when they did that?

Now you know.

Happy Life Day, er, Holidays!

I thought you'd like to meet my new pal...but he's kind of shy.

Merry and Happy, everyone!

If we could make this feeling last forever, what a beautiful place this blog truly would be

Forgive me for starting the Sunday catchup with a blatant plug, but I know a lot of you have been distracted between a certain holiday and a certain movie. So, if you missed it - Redblade, the fifth Monkey Queen book, is out now! This post has all the links to buy it at Amazon stores worldwide (and it's free to read for Kindle Unlimited members or Amazon Prime members with Kindles)! And this post is where you can preview the first two chapters!

And while I have your attention, the first Monkey Queen book, Of Introductions And Abductions, is still on sale for 99 cents US, and will stay on sale through New Year's weekend! Grab it now if you haven't read it, and remember that ebooks make great gifts!

After the cut...we head to a galaxy far, far away.

Disney Infinity: The Battle We've Been Waiting For

So intense, I had to hide it after the cut!

early morning blogs and greens

Late Sunday catchup today, and that's because I'm starting to take the final steps towards a big announcement later this week! Stay tuned! And don't forget that the sale is still going on; more after the cut (including spoilers).

tear the top right off of my blog

Sundays mean catchup, and I get to start with a follow-up from last Sunday's post: Work on the sixth Monkey Queen book has officially begun! I know I said last week I'd be waiting for NaNoWriMo...but I found a hook for the opening scene and got excited. As mentioned earlier, this will be the first part of a trilogy, and it will test Michiko and Beth like never before. More, including an important appeal, after the cut.

of awesome archer princesses and trolling idiots

So it turns out I need to talk about Once Upon A Time earlier than I thought. More, and a few unkind words about some morons, after the cut because spoilers.

Disney Infinity: Waking Up

Disney just released images for the first Disney Infinity figures from Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Previews here. Holy cow, they look sweet.

Disney Infinity: What.

Blame this guy.
