  • So You Think You Can Write…Quickly?

    When I cam across Harlequin’s So You Think You Can Write contest, at first I laughed. And then a little spark in my brain went off, and I thought, “I could so totally do this.” Romance isn’t in my wheelhouse AT ALL, but I understandt he appeal and the potential benefits of delving into it.…

  • RoW80 Update: Let’s Stay Together.

    Now that I’ve pretty much officially moved into the boyfriend’s apartment (the cats are settled, so that makes it legit), this next week or two is going to be about getting all my crap moved over (no easy task, as there’s significantly less room here) and finding myself a new routine that works around sharing…

  • Final Week, Soulless Campaign!

    Well, it’s here. Only seven days left to the conclusion of my very first Kickstarter campaign to help raise funds for The Slayer Saga: Soulless. It’s been a bumpy ride, especially since a good portion of the time period was spent without a computer, so I lost a lot of promotional time, but that means…

  • RoW80 Check-In: Nice While It Lasted.

    So, it’s official. I’m now part-time employed at a local grocery store as a cashier, thus dashing my plans of working on nothing but my writing for the time being. Granted, I’ve asked for only around ten hours a week and it’s significantly less demanding than my previous full-time assistant general manager position, but part…

  • RoW80 Check-In: Steady as she Goes.

    Well, we’ve taken a dive into May, the weather outside actually felt quite a bit like springtime for a change, and it’s time for another RoW80 Update! I have pretty “boring,” steady goals, so the update isn’t exactly exciting, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. No news is good news when it comes to…

  • Searching for Inspiration for Contemporary Novels.

    Writer’s block has never really been a problem for me. At any given moment, I could tell you about at least five different novel ideas that I’ve got in my pocket. More often than not, though, those novels are genre fiction. Fantasy, science fiction, horror. This is the stuff I love to read and the…

  • A Wee Little Catch-Up.

    Usually, if it gets to be this late in the day and I haven’t made a post yet, I leave it for the next day, but I felt the need to still put something up. The only reason why I didn’t post this morning was because I had an unexpected job interview downtown this morning…

  • Author Quotes: Pratchett.

    “Fantasy doesn’t have to be fantastic. American writers in particular find this much harder to grasp. You need to have your feet on the ground as much as your head in the clouds. The cute dragon that sits on your shoulder also craps all down your back, but this makes it more interesting because it…

  • World Unknown Review Reboot!

    As I’ve been talking about ad nauseum here on the blog, my focus on becoming a full time writer starts next month when I finally say good-bye to the dreaded Day Job. This means putting a new focus on creating more content (my biggest faux pas at the moment), getting back in touch with writerly…

  • The Deadline for “World Unknown Review” is Looming.

    It’s hard to believe that we’re already half-way into the second week of October, but it’s true. That means the deadline for Submissions for the World Unknown Review is coming up pretty quickly! Submissions will close after October 31st, 2013. At the time of writing this post, I have received no submissions, which means the…
