The New Year is Busy Already!
January 20, 2026 - Check out my new recipe for Standing Paste Crust! January 12, 2026 - I'm still finishing up my fantasy novel, partly because I've been working on continuity issues, partly because I got horrendously sick over Christmas and New Years and spent most of that time in bed, and partly because I finally got Rise Up! (the bread cookbook) completed and sent off to the typesetter, and a list of photographs needed sent to my photographer! Woo hoo, the bread cookbook will be available at New Hampshire Renaissance Faire (and maybe earlier if the world cooperates)! My next event is the Northfolk Night Market at Red Apple Farm in Phillipston MA from Fri. February 13 to Sun. February 15, 2026! Just a month away, and I'll be selling cookbooks and doing cooking demos with my folks! I hope you'll come visit us, and join in the mid-winter revelry with everyone at the Farm. The calendar has been updated as of: January 12, 2026. The Tavern Anthology The Turning Leaf Tavern anthology is currently on pause while I finish my nervous breakdown. It's been a very hectic summer and autumn, and I am recovering from a lot of things. Please be patient with me, but know that I am absolutely still doing this! I have made the first cut and informed everyone who made it and didn't make it. There will be a second cut coming once I catch my breath and get healthy again. At that point, we'll start the editing in earnest. I cannot emphasize how amazing the stories are that have been submitted, and the recipes as well. Look for more info here as we get funding and publish the book! For more details about the anthology, check out The Turning Leaf Tavern page. Lessons in Writing If you're interested in the writing "lessons," I'll be adding them once in a while. It will be somewhat hit or miss, as I'm chest deep in a morass of writing, right now (never a bad thing!). Lesson One: From Head to Paper Lesson Two: Preparing to Write Lesson Three: Start Writing Lesson Four: Creating a World |

Allyson's Writing Tips: |
"Dress for the job you want," does not mean you get to wear fantasy gear into the office. On the other hand, you may find yourself offered work at a fantasy village, so consider it!
