Con Report: Capclave 2025

Sooo… Capclave 2025 was nearly 2 months ago, and I am clearly very late with this con report. Long story short: I was really busy the week after the event, and then the government shut down. The stress tried to eat me. It wasn’t pretty.

I did have amazing convention, with panels and a reading between Friday and Saturday. In lieu of a detailed summary, please enjoy these pictures and a sneak pee

The mystery here is pretty close to home (literally), and this book sets up what looks like the "next" series featuring these characters. August balances introducing a "paranormal" element to these books with keeping the story very rooted in reality. ...more

You should seriously read that series, I think you'd really enjoy it. Start with "Kitty and the Midnight Hour." P.S. It's not cats, it's werewolves. ;)

The books you read are crazy! The names always seem like the book is so intense! And whenever I see the word 'Kitty' I always think, must be Hanna! Her and her obsession with cats! HAHAHAH xDDD

BTW, your default picture cracks me up. That's literally my life too. I'm always doing the most LAZY things ever. Normally, I have a book in hand, some tv show/movie is playing, and I'm playing with my animals, mostly my cat. LOL. :))
