(The Clarion Write-A-Thon fundraiser was...unsuccessful, to put it mildly. I wasn't able to drum up any donations for the workshop and subsequently my will to follow through on writing Unstable Future plummeted. I didn't actually write much of it at all during the write-a-thon, and to date have raised no money for Clarion. I'm still … Continue reading Friday Fiction: Unstable Future Snippet

Clarion Write-A-Thon 2013 is a Go!
I feel like I'm failing at the whole fundraising part of this thing because I haven't talked it up nearly enough, but that will change starting today!

I'll try to make it up to you guys with a twofer next week, so stay tuned for that! For now, … Continue reading Friday Fiction: Farmer’s Market
Friday Fiction: Meet Ugly
(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?
