Here's where the writing blog gets fun. As November inches closer, I'm going to both be more busy and hopefully more prolific here, getting ready for the National Novel Writing Month. And of course to start... I wrote somewhere else! XD Denise Drespling is a fellow MFA student with me, and an exceptionally talented writer. … Continue reading Guest Post – on NaNoWriMo!

In my continuing obsession with M.C.A. Hogarth, I'm jumping my order just a bit to post my review of the sequel to Earthrise, in honor of its release date of today! Second in the Her Instruments trilogy, Rose Point follows the continuing adventures of Captain Theresa “Reese” Eddings, commander of the TMS Earthrise, and her somewhat misfit … Continue reading Book Review – Rose Point
Time for Life Stories with Rion. I don't go full-tilt into what's happening in my life often, but this is something that authors need to be aware of in their writing as well, so I figure that I'll go into it here, and we can all work it out together. So here's what I've been … Continue reading On Dating and Relationships, and How I’m Bad At This
With my title as an homage to Wicked, you'd think this story might have a less than happy ending - yet on the contrary, I'm actually being quite honest. Because in terms of me as a performer and someone in the writing world, I've had a lot of excellent things happen to me recently. And … Continue reading Couldn’t Be Happier
I understand that writing this is a little odd, on several fronts, but this is the first in what will be a four-part series where you get to see the reviews I sent my MFA mentor this semester. Shutter Island was the first book I reviewed. I have chosen not to go through an edit … Continue reading Book Review – Shutter Island

When I was in sixth grade, my teacher attempted to drill the words "things" and "stuff" from our … Continue reading The Length of a Sentence
I do try not to engage with trolls. My time in live-action roleplaying has taught me that it's rarely worth the time and effort, since you're likely to lose - and my time on the Internet hasn't disproven that. However, once in a while, I find something that I genuinely believe is trying to be … Continue reading Critical Response: 100 Things Every 20-Something Needs to Realize
Ironically, as much as I talk about putting music to everything I write, this is actually not a post about writing with/to music. (Though that's certainly an idea for the future...) No, this is something that I was thinking of when I was at work the other day, and it struck me that I keep … Continue reading Writing Stories in the Quiet
Second in my M.C.A. Hogarth series, moving chronologically forward in my knowledge of Micah. Now, we all know that your friendly neighborhood Rion here is a sucker for a good Kickstarter. I love being able to look at someone that wants to do something, hand them some of my money, and say - directly - … Continue reading Book Review – Earthrise
I was linked to this article by my father earlier today, and while I agree with much of it, I think it requires a counter-point to be offered - by someone in said age range. Without repeating what the article says verbatim, Jason Nazar of Forbes Magazine has come up with a list of "20 … Continue reading A Rebuttal on My Knowledge
