OMF(riggin)G(awds)!!!

I’m super excited! No, I didn’t get “THE CALL” but I did get an awesome email from a favorite author of mine. She said that she’s sending me a copy of her upcoming book. *WOOT!!*

Ok, you might be [...]

In The Event Of An Emergency

The other night I wasn’t feeling very well. Actually thought I might need to go to the E.R. but my stubbornness and I refused to go. I think I can see this recent episode of illness out without the need of a $3000 medical bill.

Knowledge Makes For Bad Reading

Remember before you began writing when books were fun and delightfully entertaining?

The NOT So Wonderful

At some point in your life you’ve come upon a book that just doesn’t sit well with you. Matter fact, you might find an author whom you’ve tried a few times and something STILL doesn’t click with you. Perhaps you’ve even tossed a few at the wall because of your frustrations with the author’s voice. [...]

Newbie Alert

Hi everyone!
Being this is my first post here at Tales From The Crit, I decided to give a bit of an introduction. After all, I might think I’m hot stuff, but chances are you’ve never heard of me before.
I am a jack of all trades. I can not sit still with only one job and [...]
