Well, I’m about to enter the second half of my long eight-day work streak, so the past four days have been a little bit of a blur (having a shark-related “Big Damn Event” in Fandom High didn’t help, either). So things have been a little whirlwindy for me this past week, and it’s still a…

Man, it’s been an interesting week, if you couldn’t tell by the fact that my usual Monday Morning Reset post didn’t actually go up yesterday. I had actually forgotten that it was Monday, while actively knowing perfectly well it was Monday. It was weird, but, in my defense, last week was definitely a little more…

Oof, it’s been an interesting week it’s been. Between all my usual writing, reading, and working things, I’ve also had a visit with my brother and his family and a major mega sinus attack. The sinus attack is still lingering, although it’s a bit improved. Bright light still hurts like the dickens, but, thankfully, Mother…

Anyone who follows me on social media (well, Facebook and Twitter, anyway) will have already gotten the news, but I’m pleased to share with everyone on the blog that I’ve had a second story accepted by the Saturday Evening Post. And it’s already available for your viewing pleasure, in what was a bit of a…

While I can’t really complain too much, 2017 so far has not at all turned out the way I had envision when I set my goals and began to pursue them in January. And that’s okay. Having goals and deadlines and sticking with them is important and whatnot, but it’s also important to be flexible…

It’s still hard to believe that it’s already March. This winter in general has been a weird one, as Chicago sits through unseasonably warm temperatures. It’s really nice, I’m not complaining too much, though I do feel like it’s somewhat my fault, because I decided to be an Adult about things and finally put down…

I am very pleased to announce that the special Women in Horror Month edition of The Siren’s Call eZine is currently ready and available for free download. Of course, my excitement stems mostly from the inclusion of my flash fiction, “The Old Barn Door,” but it’s also just a really great publication worth your time…

This is the sort of post I don’t imagine many people will find interesting, but I’m a little bit of a numbers nerds and thought that, this year, I’d really like to keep track of a lot of little details and lay them all out at the end of the month to see how I…

As I’m busy caught in a whirlwind of editing and formatting and fixing and primping, it’s hard to believe that the prospective release day for Volume III of the World Unknown Review is almost here! Yesterday morning was a blur of really hitting the Photoshop (or, erm, free Photoshop equivalent, anyway) to make sure the…
