Packing Black
I’ve got a BIG problem! I’m not a good packer. I over-pack some items. Under pack or forget others. A long weekend? One large suitcase and a duffle. Both stuffed! Not exactly a minimalist approach to packing. It’s just that I can’t decide what...Denim Distress
Jeans! Love ‘em or hate ‘em? I used to love jeans. Wore them all the time when I was young. Faded. Stone washed. Bell bottom. Acid washed. Button fly. Shrink-to-fit. Yup. I had them all. Lived in denim. Just like my daughters do now. Then something happened! One day,...Closet Craziness

Review excerpt from SHADE TREE BOOK REVIEWS: recommend Merkabah as a must read, especially for the para-normal, ancient history, thriller seeker, audience, and anyone who wants a novel that seems to turn the pages for you as you dive between the covers and into the thick of the story with Daphne and S.J.

J., the demi-god/Nephilim heats to a boil as the “Watchers” seem to become more involved in the love affair between a human and a Watcher. This is only the sideline to the action-filled storyline as Daphne’s powers as a Merkabah continue to increase and she continues to fight the demons that are co-habiting earth with us mere earthlings.
