Sometimes we all just need a few encouraging words. Life gets hard, people get sick, plans don’t work out, tragedies strike, life gives you lemons. But difficult times are not the only times…
Book Review: Nightrage Rising, by P.S. Broaddus
I just read Nightrage Rising (The Unseen Chronicles Book 2), and wow, what a great adventure! I’m not just saying that because author P.S. Broaddus is a member of A Drift of Quills, either. He’s a darned good writer.
A Drift of Quills: What’s Our Inspiration?

The Great NaNoWriMo Rebellion of 2017
So here I am, using the NaNo cattle prod to pump out some volume, rebelliously attacking a current work in progress. I never really think of myself as a rebel, but in this case I apparently qualify. I even have a badge to prove it.

It’s time to “Picture This!” Every first Friday of the month, A Drift of Quills gets together to chat about reading and/or writing.

Chocolate Fix: Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins
Autumn is pumpkin time — and time for Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins! (I don’t actually discriminate against the season. Any time is a good time for pumpkin stuff!) This particular recipe is pretty healthy, so it gets double points!
