  • Gasp. Anxiety And Writing Didn't Prepare Me For Cancer.
    2024/11/04

    In this episode: I'll talk about how anxiety and writing didn't prepare me for cancer. And for entering the Hospital World. The Patient World.

    First of all, how dare anxiety not prepare me for this? I thought we had a deal—you'd give me fears, I'd be anxious about them. I'd learn, become a Google MD.

    Heck, I'd even develop OCD—starting young because why not? And boom, when something happens, I'd know how to handle it. Like. A. Pro.

    And maybe sometimes, yes.

    But when I got diagnosed, that plan went out the window. My brain didn't like that plan. Or it skipped that lesson entirely for me.

    Because things didn't go the way I thought.

    As always if you have any questions, don't hesitate.

  • Big, but Not Romance Big: Looking back at Cancer Treatments, Creativity, and All the Weird Stuff In Between.
    2024/10/07

    This isn't your typical how-to guide, because let's be real—it’s more about the messy art of balancing (or not balancing) self-publishing, creativity, and cancer treatments. I’m publishing this episode on my fifth second birthday (my second birthday was the day I received my stem cells back during my autologous stem cell transplant). And I've been in remission for now five years after three years of treatment for refractory Hodgkin's lymphoma, and while I won’t shy away from the tough stuff (we’ve all cried in the shower, right?), I’m hoping to fill this series with humor, hope, and maybe a bit of awkward laughter. Join me on the first Monday of every month for Big, but Not Romance Big: Looking Back at Cancer Treatments, Creativity, and All the Weird Stuff In Between.

    And hey, if spicy paranormal or fantasy romance is your thing, check out Elizabeth Briggs' books to support a fellow author going through treatments for stage IV colon cancer: https://elizabethbriggs.com.
