I suppose every book begins long before the first page is written.

For me, *The Aerie Protocol* came from years of carrying stories around quietly, letting them gather shape in the background while life moved forward. As an avid traveler, every time I sat in an airplane and looked out over our specta Read more of this blog post »

Hey Gang,

Here we are, July 2026. I don’t know about you, but this year is flying by. For some reason, I feel like I just released Tressell 113 a few days ago, but that was way back at the end of November of last year. I think I have been in a time warp ever since. Not only that, but I then got right Read more of this blog post »

There are weeks when I want to write something beautiful and clean and hopeful.

And then there are weeks when the honest thing is to say: yes, we are in a shit show.

We are tired. We are angry. We are overstimulated by the noise, the cruelty, the headlines, the uncertainty, the constant pressure to lo Read more of this blog post »

Happy summer friends! I hope you're finding time to rest, relax and get through lots of books on your TBR pile. I got down to the beach last weekend and started Dolly All The Time by Annabel Monaghan and I'm LOVING IT so much! I can't stop smiling!

There is a hesitation in the claims industry about making quick decisions. That hesitation is understandable. Claims are built on facts, evidence, coverage, liability, damages, documentation and judgment. One decision can affect customer service, claim outcomes, litigation strategy, expense payments Read more of this blog post »

Bonjour and welcome back to the laboratory.

If you look closely at the modern psychological matrix, you will notice a critical system error running across the collective network: the panic of isolation. The moment the social notifications dry up, the moment the background noise of the crowd fades, or Read more of this blog post »

By the end of this article, you should understand why Forward Deployed AI Engineering for founder-led B2B SaaS sits at a specific price point ($5K beta moving to $7.5K to $10K standard) and why the operators who try to undercut that pricing are running their businesses into the ground in slow mo

We’re officially at the end of June. I can’t believe half the year has gone by, I truly can’t. It’s been an incredibly eventful six months and not always in a good way. I think many of us hope that the rest of the year will be more calm.

July is usually difficult for me, for whatever reason it never

If you want to witness a masterpiece in human psychology, don’t look to Wall Street or Silicon Valley. Look to the green felt of a casino floor. Few industries understand human behaviour as deeply as the gambling industry, and fewer still are as brilliant at transforming cold, hard mathematics into Read more of this blog post »

When I started writing Red Powder Mountain, Whisper was a man defined by loss.

I thought I understood him.

I didn’t.

Scene by scene, he became someone who refused to stop moving. Not because he believed everything would be okay, but because someone still might need him.

That changed the story.

Before I get into the rest of my blog for this month, I have a wonderful announcement! The Amazon listings for "The Aquamarine Necklace" are back up and working after a few months of being in limbo.

It isn’t about falling down, it’s about getting up… one more time. I’ve been seeing a lot of post lately about the resilience of women, or more to the point, the need for resilience. I have spoken a bit about this in other posts (visit my website to read past post; kcindeedoll.ca), I usually put […]

I visited the Grove Farm Sugar Plantation and took the tour. This was the home of George Norton Wilcox. This tour is an interesting case of how the victors write the history books. In this case, our tour group was just a handful of people. Our tour guide could recite an astounding number of numerica

Over the weekend, I read an essay and listened to a podcast that really got me thinking.  

The essay was written by Justin Welsh and titled “Manufactured Certainty.” He wrote about a 29-second clip of a successful CEO declaring that remote work is “white collar fraud,” and it went viral.  Over five m

Boston — and the whole country — is celebrating 250 years of existence, and at the same time I’m celebrating 50 years since I first came to the place that has always felt like home.

A week before launch, an author is usually watching the same two things on repeat – preorder numbers and inbox silence. That is exactly where arc readers can change the shape of a release. The right early readers do more than fill a download count. They give a book its first momentum, its first publ
