Sewing and Sharing

Ah, my once-monthly blog post, which I keep promising will come more frequently. Sorry yet again. Busy-busy. Homeschooling, camping, and other projects...like this cloak I sewed:


Which took LOTS of fabric and many days to make.


Anyway, since I have little news to share about myself despite my hectic schedule, I'll share about some fellow authors:

Mike Duran's newest just hit Amazon yesterday. I got to beta-read The Ghost Box and totally adored it. It's urban fantasy and had great characters and a cool plot with lots of weirdness. 



Jeff Chapman's latest short story Last Request: A Victorian Gothic is now available as an audiobook. I simply love his writing. Dark, atmospheric. And this story does not disappoint.



Lastly, the faculty for the 2015 REALM MAKERS conference has been announced! A great line-up. I won't teaching this year, but I do plan to attend, and there are some sessions I'm very much looking forward to! Check it out, and make sure you follow the Faith and Fantasy Alliance blog so you can stay updated about the conference.

You are so talented, Kat! I don't know how you find the time to do so much, and so well.

Thanks, Cheryl. But a big part of being able to get this cloak done was having my husband out of town all week :).

Cool cloak! Reminds me of the holocaust cloak from The Princess Bride. Thanks for promoting Last Request the audio book. Still trying to figure out how and where to promote audio stuff.

Thanks, Jeff. And yeah--I'm right there with you on the audiobook thing.
