The Battle of AI and Authors
The battle continues and honestly, I’m past being exhausted and now just think it’s a huge joke. I read an extremely long post on Facebook from an “author” (self-proclaimed) who went on this huge temper tantrum how just because she used a tool for her writing does not mean it’s AI slop or that she […]
Two months later…
A little more than two years living in Arkansas and we are still working in the summer like we did in Colorado. It’s insane with the heat and humidity and this year has been horrible with triple digit heat and a draught that is unprecedented, at least, that is what the locals have told me. […]
Kickstarter and More
Wow has it been a month. Not all great, but we are all going through struggles, so I won’t pretend mine is unique or devastating. It’s just life, but it’s still painful at times. Willow, my broody black hen whom I named after Willow in my dystopian series, hatched a lovely gray little chick. None […]
Nightmaerz and Lingenfelter Website LIVE!
My long-awaited true crime and fantasy series has finally made its debut, featured on my new website; R.A. Lingenfelter. Book One of my Nightmaerz Crimeantasy™ series is finally live on my new website and I couldn’t be happier! HostM did an incredible job creating my Lingenfelter website to keep my dark fantasy/paranormal works separate from […]
Crimeantasy™ Book One is Done!
Yesterday I typed “The End”, kinda. I don’t use those exact words at the end of this series, but you get what I’m saying. I finished the first book! Now comes the nail-biting, waiting, wondering while my editors and beta readers take their first crack at finding my errors, areas I need to make the […]
Owingsville Kentucky!
I will be in Owingsville Kentucky May 9th! This will be bitter-sweet as this is my last book signing promoting my Small Sacrifices series. It has been a long six years trying to get this award-winning series in the hands of readers and I’m grateful for all of the beautiful souls I’ve met, new fans […]
Crimeantasy© Series Getting Closer
My true crime meets fantasy horror series is getting closer to it’s release day. The researcher in me has been busy following the detriment that is happening in our country, sorting out facts from fiction, truth versus rage bait. It’s set me back on my series quite a bit, but I’m back on it and […]
It’s So Easy!
I’ve been looking at my social media algorithm and my last few posts and cannot believe how easily I slipped back into the United States narrative. It’s hard to keep your head down, nose clean and focus on what you can control or manage. I have this amazing new book series I’m working on and […]
2 Year Anniversary!
Today marks our two year anniversary of moving to Arkansas. My husband and youngest daughter rolled up to our house with one Uhaul, his car on a trailer behind it and our entire home and family possessions inside. Maddy and I would show up two days later with our livestock. It was scary, as we […]
Sad State of America and Citizens
I have always been fascinated with travel, different cultures and how other people lived in their part of the world. My father fought in WWII and described the areas in Europe he had been deployed to, focusing more on the architecture and citizens he encountered and less on the horrors of war. This only fanned […]
