Posted on December 1, 2020 by alexanderhodde

A Little Twinge (by Hannah Alexander)

Posted on September 29, 2020 by alexanderhodde

No, I am not jealous and I’m proving it. Just because Kristin Billerbeck now rocks humor AND drama doesn’t mean I have anything to worry about, right? Just because her prose decorates each page with nothing short of poetry doesn’t … Continue reading →

We recently republished this title with considerable rewrites, and thanks to the editing of Kristin Billerbeck and Jill Eileen Smith, I think the book has all its ducks in a row: Shona Tremaine, daughter of and assistant to State Senator … Continue reading →
