Looking Forward to the Rest of April I am writing this on a Tuesday (to be posted on Thursday), which is a bit unusual for me. I typically write my blog posts the evening before, or sometimes the day of if I am running late for the week. It’s dependent on my work schedule and […]
Character Profile: Colin Marsden My blog for this week features the latest character profile from The Caein Legacy, Colin Marsden, the primary antagonist of the series.
