  • 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…

  • First Sentences Meme.

    Over on good ol’ Facebook, the fantastic Elizabeth Anne Mitchell tagged me on a writing meme. And of course I can’t refuse a writing meme!

  • I was incredibly grateful and pleased and honoured to check my email last night to see that A Story a Day has nominated me for a Versatile Blogger Award! Hooray! One day, I might even figure out how to put the little graphic thingy in a side bar on here. OH, technical stuff! I do…

  • I have two exciting things to write about in this blog today, and the first I wasn’t sure if I should bother with since it doesn’t necessarily have to do with writing, but it does have to do with the writer’s sanity. Allow me to proudly and happily declare that it is Friday, which means…

  • Sunday Snippets.

    I am very proud to announce that, despite it being a bloody busy weekend, I am still right on track with my page count for March’s novel! Who’d’ve thought dedicating yourself to just sitting down and getting it done would actually work? I’d also like to take a moment to send a big thank you…
