Moonfall Caravan: Choose Your Horse. Choose Your Fate.

I grew up absolutely obsessed with those old Choose Your Own Adventure books.

The fantasy ones. The sci-fi ones. The weird ones where you somehow died because you opened the wrong door on page 42. I had stacks of them scattered around my room as a kid, with folded page corners marking all the endings I hadn’t survived yet.

Honestly, they were probably my first real introduction to fantasy and sci-fi “novels,” if you can call them novels. They felt bigger than regular books to me because you got to participate in the disaster directly. You weren’t just reading about someone making terrible decisions. You were making the terrible decisions.

And somehow every choice felt incredibly serious when you were ten.

Do you climb into the alien cave?
Do you trust the wizard?
Do you touch the glowing crystal that is very obviously cursed?

Naturally: yes.

So I decided to write a small love letter (parody?) to those gloriously chaotic adventure books. This one has moon fragments, cursed horses, deeply questionable survival strategies, and at least one horse that has almost certainly committed multiple crimes.

Choose wisely.

Or at least choose entertainingly.

So… You Think You’d Make a Good Villain?

Create your own supervillain origin story in seconds, take a chaotic personality quiz, and find out which member of the Ladies in Leather you are. Inspired by A Girl’s Guide to Supervillainy, where villains don’t start evil—they start done.

Let’s get something straight. Nobody plans to become a villain. That’s not how it starts.

One minute you’re minding your business, drinking wine with your friends, trying to survive life like a normal, emotionally stable adult…

And the next?

You’re sitting in a booth at your favorite wine bar with four women who absolutely should not be trusted with powers, building a revenge plan, debating leather aesthetics, and casually wondering if arson is a personality trait.

(It is. I checked. No further questions.)

So let’s find out something important:

Would you actually survive as a villain?
And more importantly… what kind would you be?

Because in my experience? (Which completely comes from writing books. I just wanted to clarify.) Villains don’t start out evil.

They start out done.

You Asked. I Answered. (I May Have Overshared.)

What do you actually get when you ask a retired pharmacist turned author — who grew up at a zoo, lived in an RV for two years, and writes from 3 AM to 11 AM — to answer reader questions? Apparently, twenty-three answers and a lot of oversharing.

My readers asked about my writing process, my real-life love story (it involved a broken-down truck and someone’s dad picking us up), where my ideas come from, and yes — the zoo. I answered all of it. Then I added a few questions nobody thought to ask, because apparently I have a lot to say.
If you’ve ever wanted to know what goes into writing romantic speculative fiction, what RV life really looks like, or why there is absolutely no such thing as a writing playlist in this household — this one’s for you.

So the World Is Ending — Which Apocalypse Would You Actually Survive?

I’ve spent a concerning amount of time thinking about how the world ends.

Different methods. Different timelines. Different levels of drama.

Sometimes it’s a cooling sun.
Sometimes it’s a virus.
Sometimes it’s aliens.
Sometimes it’s five women with superpowers and a revenge agenda who accidentally take out a city block.

(That last one is technically not a global apocalypse, but if you live on that block, it feels personal.)

The point is: I have opinions. Professionally. (Which feels like a generous term, but we’re going with it.)
