So it's not so much an AU (alternate universe) and more just...I have no idea if this could possibly ever happen in the course of the novel. Part of that is because I haven't finished it. Part is because I have no idea where the book is going. So I just sat down and started … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY: WRONG NUMBER AU (kinda)

Sooooooo this one is a solid like...100 words over where the TTH prompt wanted me but I GOT CARRIED AWAY I'M SORRY. I'm still really pleased with this, though, and it's started to give me some ideas for a book I've been wanting to write for years now. I'll let you be the judge of … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY: Thimbleful Thursday – Labor of Love
A while back, I was talking to some people...I think on Twitter, about mailing lists and how they differ from blogs. After all, if you subscribe to a blog, you can have (I believe it's an opt-in/out function) the blog posts mailed to you. That's kinda like a newsletter, right? I say things here, and … Continue reading Let Me Talk To You. …No, More. MORE!
Since I attended (or rather, will attend, as of the writing of this review) one of Scalzi's book tour events on Friday the 24th (aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh) I figured it was probably a good idea to read at least something of his. Yeah, I'm a terrible SFF fan and up until now, I hadn't read anything of John … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: LOCK IN by John Scalzi
One of my most dreaded questions whenever someone finds out that I'm a reader is "so what's your favorite book?" or its brother question, "so who's your favorite author?" I have absolutely no idea how to answer this question, because for most of my life, I've never had an answer. I have someone I could … Continue reading Let’s Talk Favorites
Literally had never heard the turn of phrase that way, but a quick Wiki search tells me it's another form of "highway robbery"! Neato. So today I'm delving back into one of my few published worlds, because I miss these characters and they deserve more page time. Soren Avalon, digital supervillain, and his significant other, … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY: Thimbleful – Daylight Robbery
Any time I get a chance to speak to a published author, whether they be traditionally published or not, I always have a tendency to ask the same question. I ask because I still haven't really gotten a good answer, and it's an important one to me. Particularly since it's likely that I'm going to … Continue reading Read My Book, Please
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
Oh, I got going about this the other day. This got me going so much that I'm going to move blog posts around so that I can have this come out closer to what time it actually is. Oh boy. Here we go. So it's no secret, if you look back through the archives here … Continue reading Money vs. Dreams
Another Thimbleful Thursday post for you! This was meant to be between 450-550 words, and it's just over (sorry, Lyn) but it just grabbed me and wouldn't let go. This is a very very very far sequel-ish to QUEST TO KARANTIRI. We've met Kelina, the princess of the Metadrine elves before. The young man she's … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY: Thimbleful-Iron Out the Difficulty
