  • 2014 NaNoWriMo Project.

    I have participated in NaNoWriMo every year since I think 2005, for back when I was in college. I think? I’m pretty sure I started in college, but it’s hard to believe that it’s been around that long…and that I have consistently failed it for nearly a decade now. This year (as with every year,…

  • A New Step Forward.

    It’s been another strange week, folk.  There was all sorts of shenanigans for Halloween, of course, but, prior to that, despite all the stuff I wanted to get done, my time was crippled as I went into battle with a little bit of malware that wound up on my computer due to my desperate attempts…

  • While things are a little more steady for me now, my life is still a little topsy-turvy. Herein lies the problem with living with three other people, all of us with very different lives. I can go four straight days without seeing the other two roommates…of course, those are the days I’m working long shifts.…

  • More Heartless Inspiration.

    Reddit is a complete mecca of all things Intrawebz, and I’ve found it to be an absolute treasure trove for inspiring photographs and images, especially in subreddits like Abandoned Porn (which is NOT what it sounds like to the unknowning, I promise…it’s like food porn, but with old, abandoned buildings), Earth Porn (same thing, but…

  • Psst. Guess what? I’m holding my very first ebook sale! The Slayer Saga: Soulless is currently on sale for only $0.99. That’s right. About the same as a can of beans, and far more enjoyable, too. I’m not exactly sure how long I’m going to run this promotion, so snag it up while you can,…

  • Wednesday is usually reserved for RoW80 check-ins, but, since the round just started on Monday, I feel there really isn’t much to update on. I’m still settling into my goals, working on sending out either “Lady of the Masks” or “A Song for the Underworld” somewhere (they both came back with big fat rejections this…

  • One of the best things about this whole writer gig is getting to know other writers, especially through groups like A Round of Words in 80 Days. It allows me to get to know writers not only in my own set of interests, like fantasy and science fiction, but also areas that are a little…

  • Now, I know the whole WIPpet Wednesday is an official thing and everything, but right now, I’m kind of like that kid on the sidelines who tosses a football around to herself while the team plays out on the field, sort of doing my own thing in my old world because I feel bad about…

  • 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.…

  • It’s been an odd couple of days for me, though not necessarily in a bad way. I did some much-needed rearranging in the bedroom for my rare Monday off, though I didn’t get a lot of writing work done. I’m oddly at peace with that, mostly because I’m finally getting a good grip on the…
