This is a repost from 2019. It is a product of its time so forgive the old references. A Part 2 of Keeping it Simple post is in the works, so stay tuned!

In Defense of Tropes: Is the Damsel in Distress or in Meiosis?
Nov 2, 2023

It’s sure been a minute. Perhaps while I struggle to finish Book 3 of the Bloodstone Dagger, I should continue on with my In Defense of Tropes blog series. Next up: the ancient and ubiquitous Damsel in Distress. But is there anything defendable about this one? Turns out yes… if you value a little thing called all life on earth.

In Defense of Tropes: The Chosen Many
Jul 23, 2022

In Defense of Tropes: You Can Change Him

Part 2 of my tropes series explores the allure of the bad boy in women’s fiction and how in order to keep him around, it’s important to separate fantasy from reality.

In Defense of Tropes: Three is Not a Crowd
Jan 23, 2021

My blogspace is primarily used to document my personal experiences as an author and not for opinion pieces. However, I figure, since expo season has dried up due to COVID-19, I’ve taken to writing a blog series about literary tropes and why authors shouldn’t shy away from them.
