I’m afraid if I don’t write I will lose the words that are smooth, and rough and satiny and taste like warm brandy, or muddled fruit drinks, and glisten like diamonds and ripple like black velvet and hang heavy like rain-soaked wool and lift like gentle smoke from families’ hearths and soar like...

We’re deep into winter here in northern California, although not a Russian winter by any means. Winter evenings, when afternoon light fades earlier each day into cold, inky sky, I relish the extra time I guiltlessly take to read good books. Russian Winter by Daphne Kalotay was one terrific novel I...

By me, that is.
It's common knowledge how breathtakingly beautiful I am; I've got the kind of beauty that transcends all cultures & eras, that launches ships, etc., etc. You know you love me for it.

The last day of my Virginia Book Tour, Saturday, April 10, was exciting and sad all at once. After finishing at the comic shop, I would have to get on the road with my kids and make the journey back to Florida.
I decided that I wanted to have fun at the last venue and that's exactly what I did....

After attending Necronomicon last year, I thought conventions were big. As in thousands attending...

The third leg of my Virginia book tour took place on Friday, April 9. This time I went back to Big Stone Gap to a very cool and neat bookstore called, "The Lonesome Pine Books."
I was treated to a cozy atmosphere, some beautiful felines and a very nice local Writer's Workshop/Critique...

Oh my goodness! Five days left before the paperback edition of Jewels is released. For everyone who has been following this journey with me, I thank you.
If you've just discovered me, I hope you will hop on the Kisha Express and learn more about me, my stories and the writing industry.

I am so excited. I am inching closer to my debut novel's (Jewels) release date and I'm trying to take it all in. I have to say that it was not the first book I thought I would get published. But that doesn't matter. It's the fact that I can say I finally did it.
