It’s been awhile…

It’s been a whopping 87 days since I last blog. No excuses here. Just plain laziness. But tonight I’m in the mood to write, and I thought I’d take a break from Double Threat My A$$ to post a blog. I’m sitting here listening to my Pittbull station on Pandora  . I love that I can […]

Let the INSANITY begin…Script Frenzy

What is Script Frenzy you ask? And why is it INSANITY? Ummm…I am going to embark on the challenge of writing a screenplay. Yup, I said it. A freakin’ screenplay. That means…a movie script. I don’t know why I do these things. I’m nuts. I don’t have time. But I can’t pass up the challenge. […]

Guess who I got to meet?

So guess!!! No really guess! Let me just start by saying…I was so excited! This year I came across a book called Chicana Falsa. It’s a tiny little thin book. So I thought why not, and I gave it a look. When I opened the book and read the first poem, I fell in love […]

You Act So White (excerpt)

                      “You act so white, Gabby,” Reyna says, accusingly.             “What did I do now?” I ask with a sigh, tired of hearing the same old crap from her.             “Girl, look at you,” she snickers, looking down at my shoes, “You got Converse on. When was the last time you saw a Latina wearing Converse, […]

Double Threat My Bleep (rough draft)

 Disclaimer!!! This is very rough! Only my first draft! I haven’t made any corrections, and NOTHING is set in stone!!!!!                       “So, how was it?” Alex asks. “Did I miss anything good?”             “Nah,” I say, maneuvering my arms through each bra strap, without taking off my shirt, and holding the phone in the crook of my neck. It’s been […]

So I’m a Double Threat (excerpt)

            Meeting Alex at Steph’s a few weeks ago is probably the worst thing that could have happened to me just before school starts. I can’t stop thinking about him. His deep voice and gorgeous eyes are enough to make any girl crazy. And to top it off, he’s just so…nice. Every time I talk to […]

Chaffey Tigers…here I come!

Hey Tigers! I can’t wait for tomorrow! I feel like it’s the first day of school and I’m nervous. I speak in front of students everyday, but somehow this just feels different. Anyway, I can’t wait to share with you all the joys of writing, new books, fun reads, and other cool stuff. So I’m going […]

Dear John, Savannah has to go!

Hellur! So in the last few weeks, I’ve read a bunch of books. But I’m going to do a quick review of two here. Don’t laugh when you hear them in the same sentence: Dear John by Nicholas Sparks and Snitch by Allison Van Diepen. Both were awesome!!! Let’s start with Dear John. I must […]

Revising, revising…

“Cause it’s 2 in the morning…” Really, it’s 2 AM and I’m writing. I just finished revising a draft of my next novel “You Act So White”. Although, the title is pending. Still not sure what to call it, and I don’t know if that title is too…too…something. I’m really excited about this one. And […]

My Website Got a Facelift

Hey Hey Hey!!! So I’ve spent a good portion of today working on my website. I wasn’t too thrilled with the old one. So I just played around with it until I found something I liked. And viola! Here it is! I like the white background much better. The gray was depressing to look at […]
