(This is for a serial I'm hoping to write a little later this year and post on relevant furry sites. I wanted to take the time to get to know the principal couple for the whole thing, and what better way to do that then write about how they first met? I didn't want to … Continue reading Friday Fiction: Meet Ugly

Friday Fiction: A Primer of Oak’s Home
I run a home-grown Pathfinder game about twice a month that I've been having quite a bit of fun with. Through 18 games, I've taken my players up to level 7 (about a third of the way through their progression) and get this -- they're still with me. I've had pretty bad luck before with running … Continue reading Friday Fiction: A Primer of Oak’s Home
The State of the Rabbit – April 2013
I'm not very good at those April Fools' Day pranks that tend to make the rounds on the blogosphere today, so I encourage you to imagine that I did something appropriately awesome and/or crazy and you're amused or annoyed by it. I'm sure that whatever you could come up with would be better than what … Continue reading The State of the Rabbit – April 2013
Thursday Prompt: The Collector
(It's been a while since I've done one of these, and I really wanted to get back into it. It helps me quite a bit with writing to be able to just bang something out between short stories or blog entries or whatever. Sort of a palate cleanser, or a chance to try something new. … Continue reading Thursday Prompt: The Collector
The Writing Plan for March 2013
You might have noticed that I didn't post a blog entry detailing how I did with my goals in February. That's because I really didn't make any progress towards them, whatsoever. I joined a few friends on their Whole30 adventure last month (it ends on Wednesday), and my priorities suddenly shifted from writing to making … Continue reading The Writing Plan for March 2013
Thursday Prompt: The Future
(Author's Note: This little bit of fiction doesn't really fit within any of the worlds that I regularly write about, but I have to admit that the main character feels an awful lot like Robert, the main character for Bird. I wanted to capture a sense of frustrated pessimism, but built on a pragmatic basis. I … Continue reading Thursday Prompt: The Future
February 2013 – The Plan
One of the things I learned last month is that my writing practice hasn't developed enough that I can simply write through unusual circumstances. I'll need to plan around stretches of time where I know I'll have company or will need to travel. That doesn't necessarily mean I'll never learn to write when there's something … Continue reading February 2013 – The Plan
January 2013 Goals: How Did I Do?
At the beginning of this month, I set a pretty ambitious set of goals for myself. I had planned to write or rewrite five short stories -- two stories for friends to try out a commission scheme I had dreamed up, and a rewrite of three 'fluff' short stories that I felt I could do … Continue reading January 2013 Goals: How Did I Do?
Fiction from the Chimeral World: Monstrous
(This is the latest bit of fiction for the Thursday Prompt published by the Furry Writers' Guild. One of these days, I'll remember to actually link to the prompt over on FurAffinity, but for now you'll just have to take my word that it exists and that more people do it than just me. The … Continue reading Fiction from the Chimeral World: Monstrous
Writing Through Rain or Shine, Snow or Drought, Feast or Famine
It's common knowledge that in order to be a writer, you have to write. And in order to be a "professional" writer, you have to treat your passion like a job. This means adhering to a schedule of some sort, making sure that no matter the capricious moods of our muses we're sitting at the … Continue reading Writing Through Rain or Shine, Snow or Drought, Feast or Famine
