    Itty Bitty Teeny Weeny Book

      So, on a whim, and because I’d used Vellum to get Zombie Maggots ready for ebook publication, I ran the print version as well. Why not? It’s all one button push. Doing the cover isn’t a big deal for me. Besides, I was curious.  Well.  Let me tell you.  This thing is so wee!…

    Fantasy Treehouse Art & Architecture

    A month or more ago I had a wild hare. This is the result of chasing that bunny down the hole and falling through another world…  This is an art book with black and white interior so it doesn’t cost an arm and a leg. The paper version is formatted for ease of page removal,…

  • The Evolution of Language

    The Evolution of Language

    My sister’s comment about my desk being an island in a sea of books is both not wrong, and got me thinking about why I own so many books. Firstly, as I have discussed elsewhere, they are a bit of a security blanket. The First Reader refers to the home library as my dragon’s hoard.…

    How Not to Shoot Fish!

    The hunting anthology, volume 1, is out now! A little early, but that’s better than late.  You can acquire and read this illustrated collection of twenty-one tales in ebook, or paperback.  As the title indicates, most of the stories in this book are humor, some wry, some rueful. In addition, there are tales of the…

The story inside is a good one, I had the privilege of reading some…

    Haunted Libraries!

    Ok, this is a worthy cause. I have a story in one of these – there will be two, keep an eye out here for the next month to see when the next one drops – but I don’t know which one. So! It doesn’t matter, because there were a ton of fantastic stories submitted…

    Eat This While You Read That: MCA Hogarth

    Ove the years of doing this series, I like to think I’ve gotten much-improved at food photography. However… this was a challenge! It’s delicious, but making it look as lovely as it tasted took some thought and more than one attempt. Ask me if I minded sipping variations… go on! Try it yourself!  When I…
