I thought I'd give you all a break from the spam of last Thursday, and so I didn't post a new review on Tuesday. I'll be back to my usual routine for next week, however. ...With any luck at all. (Hah, got interrupted by a phone call and now I need to figure out my … Continue reading The Pit

So when I was cleaning my room recently, I found a piece of paper with two ideas (I believe for this blog) written down on it. I'm still not sure what I mean by the second one, so I figured I'd give myself a while to work on that and write about this first one … Continue reading Remembering the Inspiration
In preparation for the premiere of my web serial, Quest to Karantiri, I'm hosting this month's prompt call on "Magic, Elves, and Faeries." As I said on the main page of the call - if you like fantasy settings, and want to know how your favorite aspect/race/idea/magic spell fits into my world, shoot me a prompt! … Continue reading Prompt Call for February

I've never had … Continue reading Checkpoint: Beginning of Week Three
I forget, each year, how tiring NaNoWriMo really is. Then again, most years I'm not doing two novels at once. Today is my first day that I've sat down at the keyboard, looked at the computer screen, and said, "nooooo I don't want to write." I just got home from a visit back with my … Continue reading Checkpoint: End of Week One
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
In my recent bout of enthusiasm brought on by my first residency of graduate school, I wrote and submitted a piece of flash fiction to a magazine for publication. Since I'm not particularly focused on flash fiction (and indeed, if you asked me, I'd tell you I couldn't write it) this is the first time … Continue reading Tell Me You’re Human
I am not lost...
