Ch-ch-ch-changes!

HELLO all. I've decided to update my blog style. Watcha think, pretty sweet right?

Well, maybe. But there are new things a'happenin!

I've added a shopping cart to my sidebar ------>
One can use this to buy paperback versions of my book(s) and possibly other merch in the future.

I've also added quick links to my Facebook & GoodReads pages on the top navigation.

There's a sketches and doodles page, which will kind of be a catch all for my Instagram feed, probably.

And FINALLY, I've added a pretty important [to me] page. Da-dada-da! It's the Rural Road Tales page! I'm going to use this as a platform for a weekly sketch diary that involves my characters-- my family-- in a weekly comic style. I'm aiming for uploading every Sunday. My goal is relatable and funny... but  it's me so it'll probably just be awkward. Either way, I'm hoping it will brighten your day.

I received my first new edition copy of The Greasy Opossum and I am BEYOND thrilled with how it has turned out! I'm really hoping that everyone else agrees that this version is sooooo much nicer.

Keep checking back for more updates!

Always Keep Adventuring-
Rachel ♥♥

Snow Drifting

If you live in the Heartland of America, then there's a good chance that you're experiencing snow and ice right now. As an Illinoisan, snow and ice are just a part of our everyday lives during the wintertime. Last winter was rather dry, and we only had a small dusting the entire season. This year, however, Mother Nature has decided to make up what she had missed. This past Thursday was a balmy 61 degrees when I walked into work. Eight hours later, the temperature had dropped to 41, and by the time I made it home at around 10:30 PM, it had dropped an additional ten degrees. By 11:00 PM, it was sleeting. The sleet continued until early Friday morning and eventually turned to snow. Personally, I LOVE snow! Fall and winter are my favorite times of the year, and snow is one of the few things in life that hasn't lost its magic as I've aged. I love sledding and snowboarding (even though I recently bruised my tailbone by pretending I'm still 17 and agile, not 27 and app...

First Classroom Reading!

Hello, hello, hello again! This week has been super  hectic, so I'm sure you've noticed the diminished amounts of posts the last few days. Well, let's play catch up! On Tuesday and Wednesday, I worked third shift, which I LOVE 😍 but am not used to the routine anymore. I worked third shift for a few years before Jase was born, and it was my favorite shift, but I've worked mainly second shift since I moved to dispatching. I've always  been a night owl, and love both shifts equally, but it's hard to get back into it when it breaks you away from your routine. EITHER WAY, on Thursday morning, I got off work around 0645 and headed home. Got home around 0730 and my family was running around like headless chickens trying to get themselves ready for work and school. We all piled in the car around 0800, and as we were driving away from the house, I realized just how long it had been since I'd eaten. I was hungry, had had too much coffee and too little sle...

Quiet, Frustration, and Reflection

Okay, okay.. I've been kind of quiet lately. My blog posts haven't been as frequent, I haven't posted any new comics or drawings, no updates on books. Quite frankly, I've been in a little bit of a frustrated slump lately. I've been working here and there on projects, trying to keep up with my boys, and get as much sleep as possible. I've been enjoying the beautiful fall weather. I've been trying to buy a house, and it's not really going as planned. I've been bingeing on Stranger Things  with my husband. I've got so many ideas, but I'm feeling uninspired and foggy all the time. I've decided to take a little me time. I'll probably be a little quiet online, but I'm still going to be working toward finishing the projects I already have started before moving on to anything else. As updates are available, I will post them.  I have a radio interview coming up this Thursday, so that's pretty exciting! I'll let you ...
