Welcome to Friday Finds! The idea is to share the books you’ve discovered over the last week. The Naked Truth by Lilly Cain (sci-fi romance) Magic Slays by Ilona Andrews (urban fantasy) Well, that’s my Friday Find. What are you reading?
Author: Sidney
It can never be said that Sidney Bristol has had a ‘normal’ life. She is a recovering roller derby queen, former missionary, and tattoo addict. She grew up in a motor-home on the US highways (with an occasional jaunt into Canada and Mexico), traveling the rodeo circuit with her parents. Sidney has lived abroad in both Russia and Thailand, working with children and teenagers. She now lives in Texas where she splits her time between a job she loves, writing, reading and belly dancing.
When do you test?
Dear Reader, I think I’ve developed food allergies. No, seriously. I’ve never been allergic to anything edible until the last few years when things started bothering me but recently it’s gotten unreal. I know some people who have gluten free diets, others who developed milk intolerance among other crazy things. So when do you know Read More
House Hunting – First Prowl
Dear Reader, House shopping sucks. The End. I’ve been living in an apartment since I moved out on my own. It’s been alright. I’ve lived in the same apartment for two years without the rent being raised. I opted for a smaller place with more security after Some Incidents at the previous complex. I’ve had Read More

Tattoo Tales: It’s permanent, and not like a sharpie.
I’m late in posting today. The weekend got away from me. Right. So onward! I’m doing a series on tattoos and talking about the entire process. Last week I threw the idea out there and this week I want to talk about chosing tattoos and accepting how they will impact your life. When I was Read More
Killer Heels
Okay, so I go through phases where I’m super proactive about buying and wearing fab clothes. Then there are times when I seriously wear the same pair of jeans for seven days straight. Right now I’m in one of my all-about-fashion phases and two of my favorite things to shop for are dresses, and heels. Read More
Some people do it, and Some don’t
Dear Reader, I don’t want to bore you with talking about my writing life, because you really don’t care about how many hours I spend trying to find a new way to type that doesn’t make my crooked fingers hurt. You don’t care that I stared at the screen for x number of hours before Read More
A Friday Funny: You Never Expect Your X
Dear Reader, There are somethings you’re never expecting. The strap on your heels breaking as you walk up the stairs, the motorist who cuts you off, a waiter dousing you in hot soup. Some things don’t make it on your daily list of things to do. Today at work I went about my normal schedule, Read More
Friday Finds
Welcome to Friday Finds! The idea is to share the books you’ve discovered over the last week. Hexed by Ilona Andrews (I read it for Ilona Andrews…) Deadline by Mira Grant (zombies!) The Newsflesh books are amazing. The first book, Feed, left me crying and shell shocked. I’m partly terrified to read this Read More
All Things Negative
Dear Reader, I got my first scathing bit of feedback. I don’t know that I’ve ever had feedback this harsh before, but it was bound to happen someday. Maybe you’ve seen places where authors fired back on their reviewers. It happens – authors do behave badly sometimes. Which made me intellectually curious about my own Read More
