There was a period in my life where I'm not sure I thought this day was ever going to come. Granted, the day I'm referring to isn't until tomorrow, but still. I've been a writer in one form or another since I was in...what, first or second grade? I got "serious" about it when I … Continue reading The Revolution Begins

UPDATE TO THE UPDATE: PRE-ORDER LINKS ARE NOW LIVE!!!! This post has been a very...very...long time in coming. I'm writing it a bit in advance, and even now I find it hard to believe that I'm actually getting to a point where I can write this. It's not TECHNICALLY official right now, as of the time … Continue reading OH MY GOD WHAT DO I THINK I’M DOING
Apologies if this is choppy and not as up to par as usual. Part of that is the emotion of the scene, I think, making Alistair's narrative less flowing for me than it usually is. He wasn't good about keeping focus. The other part is that while I was writing, the website I was using … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY: St. Patrick’s Day
I've been toying with this idea for a little while, essentially since someone from my past had a whole faux conversation with me about how this might happen and why. I don't remember most (if really any) of our original conversation, and unlike most other correspondence with my friends, this actually happened aloud, so it's … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY: Origin Story
I don't get a chance to write too much with the characters who aren't Alistair in REVOLUTION, so I figured this is an good a place as any to flesh out a few of the characters we don't see as much of. And since Esme is a character out of her element, as it were, … Continue reading Fiction Friday: Away from Home Turf
It's been a trying past few...whiles. The past few days in particular, I've been feeling very frustrated and disheartened about a lot of things in my life. I had a bunch of topics I was going to write about but none of them are coming to me. (One I can't remember what I meant by … Continue reading Discouragement, Frustration, Irritation
So the ever-lovely Bronwen tagged me to do the 7x7x7x7(x7x7x7x7x7x7x7x7x7x7x7) post, and honestly I've been waiting for an excuse to do this. Here be the rules! Go to page 7 of your WIP. Scroll down to Line 7. Share the next 7 sentences in a blog post. After the excerpt, tag 7 other writers to … Continue reading All the Sevens. Forever. SevenSevenSevenSeven
I am a firm believer that there are too many sequels out there in the world. Every movie I've seen lately has had just enough left open at the end that everyone in the audience can say, "Whoop, well there's Movie 2 for you." And there is inevitably a Movie 2, and probably Movie 3, … Continue reading Attack of the Sequel
I am not lost...
