I've been a little more quiet on the writing front than I feel comfortable with, but there's a reason for that. When I get deep into various projects, I tend to talk about them less because I guess I don't want to reveal how the sausage is made before it's presented. When I push a … Continue reading A Look Into the Future

The Clarion Write-A-Thon, Week 4
We're halfway through the Clarion Write-A-Thon, and I've been fairly remiss with hitting my goals consistently up until now. I'm up to 14,535 words now, 7K short of the 21,500 that I wanted to have by now. I'm still working on my second short story, but Civil Engineering should be done today or tomorrow. Still, … Continue reading The Clarion Write-A-Thon, Week 4
The Clarion Write-A-Thon, Week 3
Two weeks of the Clarion Write-A-Thon are in the books -- we're one-third of the way there! So far, I've written 10,773 words (an average of 770 per day), raised $295 in donations and finished one short story! Feedback Loop has been completed, though I didn't submit it in time for consideration in Defying Doomsday … Continue reading The Clarion Write-A-Thon, Week 3
Book Review: The End is Nigh
The End is Nigh (The Apocalypse Triptych, Book 1) Edited by John Joseph Adams and Hugh Howey Self-Published My love of all things apocalyptic doesn't know many bounds; chances are, if there's the whiff of the end of days surrounding a project, I'll at least have to give it a look. This has lead me … Continue reading Book Review: The End is Nigh

Thank you SO much to everyone who's donated amounts small and large. I am beyond appreciative for your consideration and generosity. I know that there are any … Continue reading Pinpoint: Clarion Write-a-Thon, Week 3
Hey Furries, Meet Sci-Fi/Fantasy!
Further Confusion 2014 is in the record books now, and I'm sure I don't need to tell you it was a hell of a convention. There were nearly 3,600 attendees this year, and it felt like there was an unending parade of things to do, people to see and places to be. I had a … Continue reading Hey Furries, Meet Sci-Fi/Fantasy!
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?
Literary Television Episodes
When I first discovered the Internet, one of the things that I immediately took to was the many different ways you could use it to disseminate information. Stuff like Wikipedia is great, and the fact that I could theoretically find out how to make just about anything by looking it up is stupendously awesome. If … Continue reading Literary Television Episodes
Writing Projects, All in a Line
It's been just over a week since Clarion's ended, and since then I've taken a small break from writing quite so intently. What's surprising is that my writing hasn't slowed down much at all -- I'm still averaging about a thousand words a day -- but that productivity is suffusing through a number of different … Continue reading Writing Projects, All in a Line
