Flamin’ Friday: Meet Bracken Carnegie
Bracken Carnegie is the “bad boy” at Grover Cleveland Boarding School. He transferred to the school just two weeks before Rahab. Rumor has it that he was kicked out of his previous school and was recently incarcerated for murder. I can neither confirm nor deny these allegations. Bracken has been a part of Into the Flames since […]

Flamin’ Friday: Meet Rahab Carmichael
By now you probably already know a bit about Rahab Carmichael. You know that she has the same name as a harlot in the Bible, she has stubby blond braids, and she is an extreme introvert. What you may not know was that her parents were originally going to name her Matthew, she wears braids […]

I didn’t think it was possible for me to get burned out on editing. But then I think I did this week. I’m not complaining about the work load by any means. I still love my job both at Tate and as the Chief Editor for the Consortium. And I will be getting all my […]

Book Reviews: Bite Me and Persona Non Grata
You may have noticed by now that May was a pretty busy time for me. The entire month felt pretty much like finals week in college, and I haven’t felt that way in, well, two years. It was not a happy feeling, and it reminded me how glad I am to be grownup now and […]

Book Review: Dracula
I finished Dracula this week. Finally. I have wasted month of reading merely to tell you: I hated it. No, it wasn’t becuase it was very slow and written in epistolary format. It wasn’t becuase the characters were lame and took over four hundred pages to capture Dracula. It wasn’t because the ending felt very anticlimactic or because I […]

But I wrote yesterday’s post a few days early, and then I found out on Wednesday that Courtney Cantrell‘s novel Colors of Deception was released on Kindle and other e-readers this […]
