  • The River Runs Dry.

    Some days, you just can’t think of anything to post. Most of those days, I just don’t post. No big deal; I learned a while ago that there’s no point in stressing out over blogging every day. Other days, I realize I keep dying on HabitRPG, so I should post so don’t lose as many…

  • In transcribing the current draft of Serpent in a Cage, as well as going through an old version of it, I came to the realization that I love a good fever dream. I’ve remarked about it on Twitter a few times, but it’s only until recently that I realized how much I use it. Both…

  • You know what I just thought of, while editing my Snow-White and Red-Rose retelling? Writing advice is always a little strange, quite a bit of give-and-take, since everyone has different styles and a lot of people effectively break the rules and create wonderful stuff. I’ve always taken the “Writing Rules” as general guidelines, but I…

  • I’ve reached the point in my RoW80 journey where my first goal is basically complete. Soulless has been shipped off to beta readers and the Kickstarter has launched. There’s little to do with it now except continue to plan for my cover design (which image do you like best?) and promoting aforementioned Kickstarter (without getting…

  • Okay, so, since this is a writer’s blog, I don’t usually use this space to promote anything other than writing related things, but I’m making an exception today because something amazing happened this weekend. For a while now, after learning about it via a great deal on Living Social, I discovered Artizone, a great grocery…

  • Fear of Comment-ment.

    Lately, I’ve been trying to comment on more of the gazillion blogs I follow, not just because I’ve made it one of my habits on Habit RPG (and thus get more points for each comment), but also because it’s just a good way to establish those relationships that help build me into a better blogger…

  • For the life of me, I can’t remember which blog it was that I follow that posted this idea, mostly because I wasn’t planning on using it. But, come today, I was stuck for a blog topic, and realized how fun it could be to explore it a little. Basically, this unknown blogger (ugh, I…

  • I’m not sure if it’s the impending loss of my complete freedom, the change to the most beautiful spring weather EVER, or just the mere fact that the ending of this first edit of Soulless is so close I can taste it, but I have felt infused with this voracious appetite to write ALL THE…

  • Author Quotes: Lewis.

    “Hardships often prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny.” -C.S. Lewis This little nugget of hope was recently posted over at Nhan-Fiction, and it was a great reminder to come across at this point in my life. I’ve always been a fan of Lewis, though his philosophy on many things differs from my own. This,…

  • I knew this was going to happen. It was looming there like a dark cloud on the horizon, and now that I’ve reached it, it’s releasing its gloomy rain all up on my biznas. I’m talking about the murky, muddled middle of Soulless. I knew it was there, I knew that it sucked, and now…
