I hope you enjoy these … Continue reading Meet the Author: Cari Jehlik
Oh gosh, that's me! I've had kinds of really good intentions about being hyper consistent over here, and CLEARLY that hasn't happened. I have about four books waiting to be reviewed (I WILL get to them eventually... ), but first, I have some exciting news! I've been published again! Yes! The novelette anthology And Man … Continue reading The case of the absentee blogger…
