Odd Prompts: Zombie Nature
The characters will be familiar to those of you who have read Lab Gremlins. *** “Hard hat, safety toes, and lab goggles,” Steven muttered to himself. “That’s all I ever wanted in a job.” “Huh?” Bob twisted around and looked at him. At least the big cephalapoid kept his weapon pointed away from his…

Bibliographic
I’ve been distracted elsewhere. Two things: first, The Ratel Saga is coming soon, and secondly, I’m reworking my resume, which for some strange reason I decided means I need to do my whole CV. For the first time ever, I compiled a complete bibliography of my work. Well. I think it’s complete. Major works are…

Thank you friends
I think I’ve probably said this before, but you know? Bears saying again. I came across this quote from another author, one I don’t know, through the Passive Voice (who feels like a friend because I have read him so long, although I have rarely interacted with him directly, and honestly, that’s part of the…

Oh look! A book!
I grew up reading Westerns. Mostly Louis L’Amour, but my great-grandparents had a full set of Zane Grey (in the iconic red-and-white covers) in their home on the Oregon coast. I collected a fair chunk of them, for nostalgia if nothing else, only to lose them to a flooded basement. I imprinted early on those…

Empty
Emotions leave behind a tide-scoured flat of nothingness in their wake. The ultimate judgment, to stand before the Maker, stripped of all but truth. That moment comes to us all, and some… some will be driven to an unthinkable anguish when they have to face their lives unable to veil themselves against the unwavering glare…

Odd Prompts: The Cat’s Miaow
Just a little something. *** The problem was, of course, that no one could decide how to spell it. The cat hefted her hammer and let out a breath that perturbed her whiskers. She had a feeling her fur was standing out at all angles, and she knew she’d split a claw with a misdirected…

Books, Art, Varied Diversions
I have a couple of books to commend to you all, dear readers. By some of my favorite living authors, they are fresh off the press. Smell those toasty electrons! mmmm new books… Dave Freer’s Cloud-Castles is a space opera with his usual intense world-building based in sound science, peopled by all-too-human characters and delightfully…

Tethered
Was thinking about this the other night. I ran out on a little trip by myself. Now, since the First Reader joined me in Texas, we’ve been going everywhere together if at all possible. Walking hand-in-hand over to the mailbox. Driving to the grocery, even if it’s curbside pickup… we were apart for too long…

Spicy HotPot
Since I mentioned this, in detail, on today’s livestream, I thought I’d put up my photo of it. That’s a lot of chili oil adrift on that yummy, yummy broth! I will one hundred percent go back to Yin Tang for lunch, but next time I’m ordering a mild. Or… what’s less than a mild?

Encouraging Myself
Well, that took less than two weeks. I started out the year trying to set up some new routines, hoping to get more productive and work on health stuff. Tonight, I’m sitting here staring at the computer willing myself to come up with story so I can write… And feeling like crying because I’m not…

Curiosity Food
You know the saying. Well, I say that it’s because of starvation. Obviously, the way to keep alive is to feed the impulse. So! Can I embed a funny story prompt? https://wuxiaphoenix.tumblr.com/post/672392916618166272/blueshelledbastard-whetstonefires-moonymango Or perhaps something that made me giggle out loud? https://wuxiaphoenix.tumblr.com/post/673026970492272640/elodieunderglass-wizardlyghost-silverjirachi

Odd Prompts: What Train?
A snippet from the ongoing WIP. I’m only putting the bits with the prompt responses up here, as I am not entirely sure what this thing is going to be, or where it will be published when complete. *** “I don’t know what you have against Dmitri.” Branch didn’t speak until we were in the…
