Cover Reveal: Mermaid Blogger
Here’s the cover for my upcoming book. Mermaid Blogger is the most difficult book I’ve worked on, because it’s very much its own thing and not related to the whole world I have established in Demonic Cafe. It draws on different life experiences, and it’s hard to know what feels like it belongs in the…

Review: Sprinkles and Sea Serpents by Danielle Garrett
Once upon a time, a mystery author woke up and said “You know what would work really well? Writing a cozy mystery about someone who bakes cookies and cakes and stuff. Women would totally get into the baking food porn-aspect while they watch the heroine solve the mystery.” At a different time (but not that…

Review: The Unicorn
I should warn you in advance, there are no actual unicorns in this book. Disappointing, I know, but the title was what originally caught my attention. I could tell from the back cover copy that there wouldn’t be any real unicorns but I was curious just what about it was “unicornesque” enough to qualify for…

Demonic Cafe Book 5 Returns to Amazon
After two years of being unavailable, the fifth book of Demonic Cafe is now back in the Amazon store. I thought I would take this time to go into what happened with this book, which may be of interest to some readers; if you’re not interested, I won’t be offended:). A few years back, I…

Random Sketch
I was looking through my office, trying to find a particular sketch book, when I ran across a stack of old drawings. For some reason, there’s something compelling about the girl with the braid that I just can’t put my finger on.

Mini X-Men, Revised
I felt like my first version of the mini X-Men wasn’t complete enough, so I added a bunch more characters. I also changed Jean Grey to a cooler incarnation of the character. Okay, now that I’ve got this out of my system, I will stop drawing X-Men and will do more important things. Or at…

Mini X-Men
I promise I’ll get off this X-Men kick soon! I promise! For some reason I wanted to draw a chibi Jean Grey, then it was so fun I started doing other characters. So here are Jean, Cyclops, Rogue, Gambit, Psylocke and Wolverine as lil’ chibi versions of themselves. Jean’s looks the roughest because I drew…

Fan Art: Dani, Magik and Magma
This is one of the other pieces of art I found in an old folder. This was from almost 15 years ago, and wow, damn I’m old. Anyway, it’s a piece of characters from The New Mutants, a spin-off from X-Men that first ran in the 80s and has been relaunched several times since. I…

Fan Art: 90s Jean Grey
I found some old fan art in a folder on my HD and I figured I’d post it. Here’s Jean Grey from X-Men in her ’90s costume. This costume is interesting, because sometimes it’s colored blue and flesh-toned, like I’ve done here, and sometimes it’s blue and yellow. I like the flesh toned look because…

Drawing Comics Again because…reasons
I haven’t been posting much to my blog lately because I really haven’t been writing, and I don’t feel like blogging if I’m not working on my books. Most people who visit this site are here because they’ve read the Demonic Cafe books and might want more news on them, and I feel bad being…
