• “A mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it’s to keep its edge.” –George R.R. Martin, in A Game of Thrones It’s been a while since I’ve read A Game of Thrones (though I plan to revist the books again sometime in the near future), but this quote has always been one…

  • Awesome Things Volume Four.

    I haven’t gotten around to amassing another Awesome Things post in a while, so a few of the links are a little old, found a while ago, and some of them are newer. All five of them, though, are awesome. Have a look and share your thoughts! From Knite Writes: I found Therin Knite’s 80…

  • RoW80 Update: …Whoopsies!

    So the other day I made a mistake that left me in a little bit of a funk. It’s funny, isn’t it, how one little thing can put me so off-kilter? It wasn’t even a big mistake, just a wee little whoopsies that made me feel very silly indeed. I have a lot of those…

    So, it’s Friday, I have the day off, my paychecks and bills aligned in such a way that I actually have a little spending cash to go shopping and buy some nice things for the apartment, I got my first official Amazon review for Soulless (thanks, Lauralynn!), so I want to do something a little…

  • What Will You Read?

    Since I’ve been really exploring a lot of advertising online, I’ve been thinking a lot about who even looks at these random sites looking for books and what exactly they might be looking for. I haven’t gotten any return from them yet that I know of, so there’s something that’s missing. I know it’s not…

  • It’s funny how the world can shift, isn’t it? Not too long ago, my Wednesday check-ins were my better check-ins, filled with all the work I used to get done on Monday and Tuesday, since the weekend left me scrambling for an update on very little for Sundays. Now that I’ve moved into a new…

  • Some of you may be aware that, this year, in addition to publishing my second book, Soulless, I intend to finally published the World Unknown Review, a literary journal of all the short stories I would like to promote and share with the world. I attempted to do this last year, and really dropped the…
