On a rare Saturday* (which will become less rare**, most likely – more on that Sunday) last week, I got some writing done. I got some other stuff done as well, but the writing was up there on the cool list. That was the only day during the weekend that I wrote. Monday, I got …
So I’m sitting here looking out the window while I type this. Ok, that’s not entirely true. I can’t not look at the keyboard when I’m typing. I’m not that good of a typist. It’s the middle of October, unseasonably warm, grey, and windy as hell. The hummingbird feeder is turning a slow circle – …
How can such a short week feel so long? I’m still working with the same seven days as the rest of you, but I did have less day-job days. Per usual, I didn’t get any writing done over Saturday and Sunday last week. Those days are, generally, reserved for writerly administrative things. Despite having the …
I don’t know about you, but I’m kinda digging the alliteration in the title there. Anyway, here’s what’s been going on since the last Friday Fess-Up. I didn’t do a damned thing over the weekend. Well, that’s not entirely true. You may have noticed that I’ve got a blog. Sunday morning is usually when I’ll …
This weekend included a couple of firsts for me. Friday night I went out to see my first, ever, live hockey game AND I stepped into a casino for the first time. Some of you might be wondering what this has to do with anything, and why I’ve decided to bore you with it on …
Hi there all, and welcome to my Friday Fess-Up. As promised, here is an unvarnished look at what I’ve been working on (or not) this week: Jade Moon Waning: I’ve been working on a couple of different alien races that will appear in this story. I still don’t have an elevator pitch and I …
Hold Onto the LightThe Hold Onto the Light campaign has started for another year. For those of you that don’t know about the campaign, it’s Science Fiction/Fantasy authors and fans speaking out about Mental Health awareness. I’ve written a post or two for the campaign and I think that it’s something that we all need to …
“The world has changed. I feel it in the earth. I feel it in the water. I smell it in the air.*” Autumn is coming. What that means is kinda dependent on where you are. For me, Autumn looks like this: (Click to fully fill your eyeballs) Now I’m not saying that this is what …
Earlier this month, for purely selfish reasons*, I challenged my friend, Lillian Archer to commit to posting a new entry on her blog, once a week, for the remainder of August. For myself, I committed to posting an extra entry once a week. Lillian rose to the challenge admirably and I am happy to report …
Welcome to the end of the August Blog post Challenge. Yes, I know it’s not August anymore, but this is the week that August ended, so I figure that gets me a little bit of wiggle room. This is one of those, peculiar things that I think all newer writers need to hear, before they …
