Y'all. ***Y'all*** -- If you haven't heard VoicePlay before, this is a fabulous first exposure. O.M.G. <3 #acappella #fantasy #musiclovers www.youtube.com/watch?v=unTL...

I am currently reading Mickey 17, by Edward Ashton. Such a good story -- I've not seen anything quite like it before, and I'm totally hooked. Sometimes, though, the tension gets so thick I have to put it down for a few minutes. Lots going on. I'll have to read the follow-ons, too... #booksky

Blessings of the Solstice, y'all. May the Light shine bright in your life... ☀️☀️☀️

Driven is now out and available in ebook (paperback and audiobook are coming)! That's right -- the Founder's Seed trilogy is finally complete. Find the set here: www.amazon.com/dp/B0CW1C5CGG Or look for all three at your favorite bookseller now! #sciencefiction #sciencefantasy #booksky

With Driven (The Founder's Seed Book 3) coming out in a few days, I'm running a $.99 sale on Fallen (book 1 ) so readers can catch up. Ready to start? Go to niveymarts.com/upcoming-tit..., scroll down to Fallen, & use promo code TFS3PROMO (until 6/27/25) at checkout. 😀 #booksky #readers #scifi

Currently reading "Service Model" by Adrian Tchaikovsky, and loving it. It's got humor, but it's also deep...I'm not very far into it yet, but I'm hooked. Next on my TBR is "Micky 17," by Edward Ashton. I seriously wish Becky Chambers had more books out; I need her writing right now. #booksky

FYI -- Driven is available for preorder now, in ebook format. Print and audiobook are coming. :-) #thefoundersseed #booksky #sciencefictionfans #indieauthors #readers www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...

New book review up on my website -- Shadow of the Wind, by Carlos Ruiz Zafón. Excellent read! #booksky #reading www.dremadeoraich.com/index.php/20...

From last Saturday's Local Author Expo - Portsmouth Public Library. I didn't make a ton of sales, but I did make new contacts, got my name out there to people who'd never heard of me before, & donated a copy of my books to the Virginia Authors section, so now people can find them in the library! 😃

Didn’t make many sales @ the library event today. BUT I got my name in front of new readers, gave out lots of bookmarks, and donated a full set of my books to the local authors section of the Portsmouth Public Library. Rewarded myself with an evening of gaming with my spousal unit. Good day! 😁

On a personal note...A thread. With all that's going on in the world (and in the U.S., where I live), and all that I have on my own plate at the moment, I am finding it hard to balance my Self. Not gonna lie--I've been struggling. 1/?

Driven, Book 3 in The Founder's Seed trilogy, is coming soon! Time to boost attention for Fallen (1) & Broken (2) -- check out blurbs here: niveymarts.com/upcoming-tit.... Like audiobooks? Want to listen to/review these prior books? Ask me for Findaway Voices promo codes! 😃 #booksky #indiewriters

It occurred to me this morning that I have forgotten how to do nothing. How to just sit and BE. I can’t help but wonder if that’s why, in part, I feel so overwhelmed at times. Perhaps I should neglect the Doing parts of life more often, and reacquaint myself with the Being part. #thursday

Cool stuff that happened today: 1. Got off work early. 2. A stranger at the doc's office said I have a contagious smile! 3. Lab tech at the doc's office bought 1 of my books while I waited for her to draw blood. 😃 4. That squeaky noise at my rear wheel was a broken hubcap. No charge. ❤️ #Tuesday

#writingcommunity—when you’ve been running yourself ragged for so long you don’t remember how to chill, and you’re feeling overwhelmed… What do you do for a break? How do you recharge? Overworked #writers want to know. 😁 (It’s me. I’m “overworked writers.)

Love this quote…

What fun! Check out this "Ask Us Anything" interview with Dennis M. Myers, Patrick Dugan, Sebastian Vice, and me! #booksky #indieauthors #writingcommunity www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYP0...

Hummingbird in my garden yesterday... ❤️

So I finally deleted my IG account. I'd rather be here, anyway. 😁

I'm thinking of writing a story wherein the main character's name would be Justin Case. His sidekick's name would be Nikko Thyme. 😁 #writingcommunity #indieauthors #booksky

New review on my website. 😀 Or should I say "reviews"? It's a review of the four sequels to "We Are Legion," Books 2-5 in the Bobiverse series. Fun reads! www.dremadeoraich.com/index.php/20...

I’ve been quietly working on stories and book-related events and have been too long absent here. What’s everyone been up to? Here’s a pic of my table from yesterday’s Chelsea Author Fair. First time using the fairy lights… what do you think? #booksky #writingcommunity #indieauthors

#writers, when do you most love to write? What time of day? I find that I prefer mornings -- when my mind is fresh and the whole day is ahead of me. If I fill my morning and early afternoon with other tasks, especially those that tire me, I'm too wiped to write. #booksky #writingcommunity

Happy Mother's Day to those moms out there!

Since waking up this morning, I've planted a patch of holy basil, 1 of dill, & 1 of summer savory, all for the pollinators. ❤️ Also planted some marigolds; not native to our region, but they do deter the moles that seem to love our yard. Now I'm wiped. Getting older is not for the faint of heart
