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

A Look Through the Stacks
To be honest, I'm still recovering from Sasquan. Monday was a bit of a lazy day for me and Ryan, and Tuesday was all about diving into the day job. I'm mostly caught up there, just in time for my annual review later today -- at this point, I'm expected to prepare to hand off … Continue reading A Look Through the Stacks
The Clarion Write-A-Thon: Week 6
After five weeks of the Clarion Write-A-Thon, I've written 30,523 words and raised $321.57. Both are fairly far from the goal of 50,000 words and $500, and I'm not sure I'll be able to write 19,500 words by August 1st. I mean, I COULD, but it'd pretty much mean doing nothing but writing for the … Continue reading The Clarion Write-A-Thon: Week 6
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
The Clarion Write-A-Thon, Week 2
The first week of the Clarion Write-A-Thon is in the books! I've written 3,643 words so far, raised $145 in donations, and finished a grand total of 0 short stories! My word count is a pretty far cry from where I had hoped to be by now; I started off strong, but a series of … Continue reading The Clarion Write-A-Thon, Week 2
Clarion Write-A-Thon 2015: Why Am I Doing This, Anyway?
The sixth annual Clarion Write-A-Thon is underway! I've already explained just what the heck the Write-A-Thon is in Friday's entry, so I thought I would take a little bit of time to explain just why I'm doing this anyway. I'm not a rabbit who likes to pass the hat around and ask for things. I … Continue reading Clarion Write-A-Thon 2015: Why Am I Doing This, Anyway?
What Are You Working On?
Well, thanks for asking, me! I thought you would never ask! Here are a few of the things I'm hoping to make progress on this week: A Stable Love. This is a story that was commissioned by a friend, way back last year when I was toying with the idea of maybe offering commission slots … Continue reading What Are You Working On?
The End is the Most Frightening Part
By the time you read this I will have taken my very first behind-the-wheel driver’s test, with the hope of getting my license. Yes, I do realize that I’m pretty old to be getting my license for the first time, but that’s all right. I’m excited by the possibility of getting my license, buying a … Continue reading The End is the Most Frightening Part
Working in the Nooks and Crannies
There are still too many projects but not enough time, but I'm beginning to think this is just the way of things as you get older. There are always so many things you want to do, but for some reason there's just not enough time and/or energy to get to them. Right now I'm still … Continue reading Working in the Nooks and Crannies
It’s the End of Summer, Start Falling
The summer of 2014 was a pretty crazy one for me! Most of it has been structured around Ryan's trip to Clarion, the associated Write-A-Thon and all of the lessons I've learned since then. It turns out I needed to take a bit of a break from writing after that, just to process what I … Continue reading It’s the End of Summer, Start Falling
