Sometimes you find a book that, against all odds, ends up being a surprise favorite. For me, By the Grace of the Gods, Volume 1 by Roy is one of those books. The novel starts out as a standard isekai/reborn-in-another-world story, with the main character dying and appearing before the gods of a fantasy world, […]
Library of the Sapphire Wind – Book Review
There’s a meme that occasionally graces my social media feeds, lamenting that so many fictional heroes are unqualified teenagers, wishing for a story that follows an old grandma with the benefit of experience on her side. Jane Lindskold’s Library of the Sapphire Wind has become the book I recommend whenever I see this meme. In […]
The Story of Edie Skye
OK y’all, it’s time for the epic story of how this whole Titan Mage thing happened, so buckle up and grab some popcorn: It begins in 2020. One of my jobs as writer/author wife/handler/marketer/general awesome person is to research keywords for our books’ Amazon ads. One of the places I look for keyword ideas is […]
H.P. has a new bestseller (on a spicy new pen name)!
Well, that was a pleasant surprise! 😮 One of my recent background projects has been working on books under a new pen name – new because the content in those books is quite a bit 🌶️ spicier 🌶️ than my usual stuff, and I didn’t want YA readers who found me through The Wizard’s Way […]
Aries’ Red Sky – Book Review
Ok, I’ve gotta thank James Young for his patience, ‘cause he sent me an audio code for this book years ago and I’ve spent all that time and multiple listens trying to articulate a review for this thing. Aries’ Red Sky is a grand, galaxy-spanning take of interstellar politics, war, and the humans that are […]
Cinnamon Bun – Book Review
I’m slowly making my way through my massive LitRPG backlog, and this month’s book was Cinnamon Bun by RavensDigger! 😀 Admittedly, it took me a while to get into this one. It bills itself as a wholesome LitRPG, and it’s definitely that. In fact, despite being eager to embark on the adventures promised by the […]

Arcane – TV Review
OMG Y’ALL. THIS SHOW. Jacob and I actually watched Arcane when it first aired back in November, as I’m an enormous fan of all things animation and most things League of Legends (except other players 🤣). But I recently finished what is bound to be my first of many re-watches, and so am properly primed […]
Horizon Zero Dawn – Video Game Review
This month in my gaming life was an achievement, as I finally – years behind everyone else – finished Horizon Zero Dawn. I’m not nearly as fast a gamer as Jacob is; if I like a game, I tend to draw out the experience as long as I can, which is easy to do with […]
Dungeon Crawler Carl – Book Review
I just finished listening to Matt Dinniman’s Dungeon Crawler Carl, and Y’ALL. If you have not experienced the audio version of this book specifically, you’re missing out on a treat. Dungeon Crawler Carl is a LitRPG series-starter in which, in the blink of an eye, most of Earth’s population is obliterated and the planet is converted into a massive […]
Adventures in One-Eared Cats
Welp, it’s been a bit since Nova’s initial cancer diagnosis. That and her initial surgery fell in the midst of the Monster Punk Horizon series’ launch, so there wasn’t too much time for blogging. 😮💨 But now that there is, I’m delighted to let you know that Nova’s surgery went well! 😄 Her vet reports […]
Monster Punk Horizon is a #1 Best Seller! 😀
Hey, Holo fans! 😀 I was doodling on Amazon at the ridiculous hours of last night when I came upon this delightful little screen: Which is to say, as of Christmas night, Monster Punk Horizon is a #1 Best Seller on Amazon’s Steampunk Fiction booklist! 😮 It’s the dream of every author to see that […]
