A cabin in the woods
It’s here! Dueling Flames is here! It’s available from numerous retailers in both epub and print versions. This has been an EXCITING and EXHAUSTING release. And in typical “Calia” fashion, I messed up. What? Yes, that’s right. I completely screwed the marketing pooch and didn’t include ANY bonus content

Typos and all..
2023 in an image. Typos and all. What you’re seeing in that is a list of accomplishments. They boil down to 3 shorts and 2 full-length novels.

the grass is bluer
Oh Calia… you got that wrong. It is “the grass is greener.” Nope. 🙂 I’m ALMOST done with Kid’s book. It is so close I can feel it. Over 75K long with a planned six to twelve left before editing can cut out the fat, I’ve also ditched 60K in deserted scenes that weren’t working.…
