This is a review written for my 4th semester of grad school, in which I was asked specifically to focus not only on the book itself, but how you approach the book as a writer. I'm a little daunted to be putting up something about King's book here, but hey--if I'm ever to convince myself … Continue reading Book Review: On Writing

Yes, yes, yes. Finally I've gotten off my butt and started posting the serial. Yay! The first chapter of Quest to Karantiri, my fantasy story, has gone live about an hour ago (if everything is going according to plan; I'm setting this up a few days in advance since I won't be available to post this … Continue reading Announcement: Beginning of the Serial!
So I came across something on Tumblr the other day which really set me off. Someone had shared a picture which said "No one should be shamed for reading" and it had a picture of a little paper book and an e-book reader holding hands. Very cute. With the reblog, the poster says, "YES. I’m … Continue reading On the Subject of Books
I know there are plenty of people out there that likely get this a heck of a lot more than I do, but since this was my first run-in with this kind of behaviour, it really stood out to me. Now, your mileage may vary on this, but I've heard more than enough stories to … Continue reading A Look in the Life: Entitlement
So I know this isn't quite my normal thing to talk about, but it's justified and I think a cool idea, especially for authors trying to find their footing and wrangle themselves an audience. So I'm going to give you a debrief on what I got to do and experience while at Anthrocon in Pittsburgh. … Continue reading Debrief: Anthrocon
I've decided to move my old inspiration newsletter to a blog post instead, thus consolidating and making for a better archive. The standard format will change a bit, however, now that it's on the blog. Since Thursdays are usually set aside for writing help and tips of the trade, as it were, I'm not going … Continue reading Inspiration Wednesdays: Dance Break!
For my grad school requirements, each semester we have to read and review four books. (I've posted many of them up here before.) So every once in a while, I can't find one of the books I want on the Barnes & Noble NOOK book shop, and I have to wander my way into a … Continue reading Writing Under a Pen Name
Yup, the time is finally here. The anthology in which my first published work appears is finally out for both paperback and Kindle formats. POWERLESS AGAINST YOU features my short story "Toeing the Line", which follows the unlikely and potentially dangerous of a romance between a supervillain...and a member of law enforcement. (Ooooooh.) I'm very keen … Continue reading Book Launch!
This is another of my somewhat lazy blog posts, but I think it's a good reflection to put up here, especially given my silence in the blogging world this week. Again, this has been copy and pasted from my weekly inspirational newsletter. Contact me directly if you are interested in receiving the emails. I’ve struggled … Continue reading How to Write When You Can’t, or: Defeating the Kobayashi Maru
Again, I'm cheating a little, but I liked this topic. I send out a newsletter every Wednesday (which anyone is welcome to receive, if they don't already!) which tries to lend some mid-week inspiration to my fellow writers. After struggling with the topic myself for sometime, I've tackled the concept of taking advice. What follows … Continue reading Don’t Tell Me What to Think
