Today I watched Cloud Atlas. It’s one of the most beautiful movies I’ve ever seen, and I don’t just mean that it looks good (although it does). If you watch any movie this year, watch it. ~KJT, enjoying her new laptop.

Today my new laptop arrived, and boy is it beautiful. It’s got all the latest bells and whistles, including a blu-ray disc drive and a subwoofer. Not strictly necessary, but I figured since my laptop is the most important thing I own I may as well splash out.

Yesterday I finished writing book eleven in the series, which is titled The Serpent’s Coils. I timed myself again, and this time it took me two months and eight days to write the novel (last time it took exactly two months to the day).

I’ve just now listed a new toy in my Etsy shop, Quirky Toys. It’s a rabbit from space – and he can be all yours!

Have you ever had a dream? Something you wanted so badly you were prepared to do just about anything to get it? I’m sure you have. Well, once I had a dream. It came to me some years ago, and I never gave up on it. I wanted it so much that I spent years… {read more}
