Throwing Rocks
I am writing along to Sarah Hoyt’s 13 Weeks to a Novel posts over at PJ Media, and her post for week four is particularly on target for me. How to find the time to write… well, I find it mostly by having little to no free time. Between school, and work, and a long-distance…

This is going to be a short post. I really ought to be writing – well, ok, writing fiction, not blog posts. My day so far has been filled with writing, but for school, and work. I did a little reading, too, in breaks from the writing. One thing I read was Sarah Hoyt’s blog…

For No Reason
Except I’m really tired, and I have a major exam tomorrow, and I worked all weekend, and… A snippet from my work in progress, Pixie Noir. The woman who answered the door was wearing the most amazing shirt. Knitted silk, I think, clung to her like a second skin, and even though it was blue,…

Week 2 of the novel
I am writing along with Sarah Hoyt as she does the 13 Weeks program, check here for the details. This week she covers the topic of an idea for the novel. Since I am working on mine already, I just have to encapsulate the idea. Which is a trick in itself, as it’s hard to…

How to Court Insanity
I said something yesterday about putting up a snippet of a work in progress, and then said that I would not do the one I’m working on now, because it’s going to be a novel. I felt it was going to take me too long to finish, and I’m not that big a tease… Yesterday,…

Review of Puss & Boots in the 23rd Century
I interviewed John McClure over at Amazing Stories, and as promised, here is the review of his first novel, Puss & Boots in the 23rd Century. P&B, as he calls it, and I will as well for sake of brevity, is a rousing good tale of a dystopian world in the throes of recovery. Not,…

Get ’em while they’re cheap
I will be raising the prices on my short stories. So… If you want them while they are still a dollar, go download them! Also, reviews to feed the author (not literally, but I’ll be ever so grateful…) are always appreciated. Think of it as tipping the artist. I am an artist. You have no…

Review: The Dark Lady
Pam Uphoff has created an excellent SF series in the Wine of the Gods, starting with Outcast and Gods. Although it is science fiction, it has a fantasy feel, as the genetically engineered protagonists can manipulate the universe around them in a way that looks like magic. I just recently read the latest, The Dark…

A Few of My Favorite Things
It is a cold and snowy day outside, the kids are mostly occupied with electronic diversions, and I am studying for my bones practical, so I don’t have the brain power for a opinion post. I thought I would share some links to my favorite geek diversions, instead. Scholck Mercenary, along with several other webcomics,…

Snow Angel Snippet 2
Lying on her back in the snow was a young woman. Already, she was dusted over with snow, which is why Sarah had missed her clothes. Dressed in a long duster jacket, jeans, and cowboy boots, she was motionless. Her face was pale… Sarah leaned closer over her, pushing Josh toward the house. “Go home…”…
