Writing

  • 7-7-7.

    The 7-7-7 challenge pops up on the blogosphere quite a bit, most recently for me by Linda Cassidy Lewis (go read them. Go read them now, I’ll wait, because she’s got some good ones!). So what is this all about? Well, you go to your current WIP (I’ll be doing three, I think, just like…

  • I walk the line.

    If you read my last RoW80 update, you’d have noticed I’m in a little bit of a funk, and, this morning, it hit me like a brick wall exactly why I’ve been feeling that way. I have to admit, it’s pretty uplifting to understand yourself so deeply that you can pinpoint the source of a…

  • Though I know I sometimes get this weird funk going on during the weekends where I feel all my focus is completely gone and I can’t get anything accomplished, I truly feel like this last week of RoW80‘s Round 2 has been all about recharging. It’s been an odd week, full of things that have…

  • Author Quotes: Lin.

    “He who is afraid to to use an ‘I’ in his writing will never make a good writer.” -Lin Yutang I recently came across this quote in a book about hsiao-p’in poetry, describing how hsiao-p’in distinguished itself by being much more personal. Instead of tapping into the grand universal truths of the world, they looked…

  • I’m stealing some more questions from a post by Harliqueen, because they’re just so gosh darn good and it makes for an easy post topic for me. Granted, this is a romance weekly thing that a few blogs do, and Soulless is definitely not a romance, but I’m going to do these three questions, anyway,…

  • I’m sure there’s a few people out there who will roll their eyes or groan when I say this, but sometimes, it’s tough being so proficient. It’s been a good Round of Words in 80 Days for me, but I feel as though it’s about 10 days too much. I knocked out some pretty heavy…

  • So, Harliqueen had a post on her blog the other day as part of a blog hop, with a few questions to answer about the main character of your book. Naturally, I had to swipe the questions even though I’m not officially participating in anything, because I am shameless when it comes to stuff like…

  • Another Sunday RoW80 check-in has sneaked up on me yet again, but I’m fairly okay with it, because it’s a post that requires a celebration. Another one of my goals for this round has been knocked out cold! Serpent in a Cage Version 3.5 is officially transcribed! The document is saved in both my Google…

  • As we race toward the finish line for raising money for Soulless, I wanted to offer a few more tidbits of incentive to join the fun and donate with a few character snippets. Now, it’s a little difficult to explain too much about the characters without giving things away, which is why I’ve been fairly…

  • 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…
