First and foremost, I’ve got some great news on the book front. As a brief (seriously, very brief recap), I revised about 18 pages in June. For more on that, go check out this previous blog post. The good news for July? Even with about a week less time (since my previous post was aContinue reading “Back to School or Something”

I know, I know. This is over a week late. I have plenty of decent reasons for it, not the least of which is the fact that I’ve been out of the state for a week for business/vacation related purposes. In fact, I just barely got back and made sure to get this post out.Continue reading “The late bird gets…”

I’m not entirely sure why this post is titled the way it is. It may have something to do with the fact that we’re halfway through the Obi-Wan show on Disney+ (which I’m loving, by the way), but I digress. This month was very productive for the book 1 draft. For those following along atContinue reading “Now THIS is podracing!”

We’re back with another update on the writing progress for draft 3 of Soulformer book 1. This was not as explosive productivity-wise as last month, but I still soldiered on with what I could. For those following along month to month, I got roughly 20% of the draft done last month alone. This was fueledContinue reading “April Showers And All That”

Welp. Futurescapes 2022 has officially come and gone… AND IT WAS AWESOME! It was three days full of workshopping, Q&As, and presentations that opened my eyes more fully to the world of professional writing and breaking in to the scene. The members of my writing group were all incredible authors already (which was more thanContinue reading “Futurescapes 2022 Alumni”

I apologize that this month’s blog post is coming later than normal. I have good reason for the delay, seeing as I’ve been knocked on my butt by COVID. My whole family has/had it and it seems like I got dealt the worst hand. Ah well. After several days of on and off fevers andContinue reading “Some Less Exciting Updates… But Updates All the Same!”

You read that right, ladies and gents. My short story, after 3 1/2 to 4 drafts, was finalized and submitted for potential publishing in a sci-fi/fantasy magazine. I’m sure I could go through and nitpick more revisions or add/take away pieces, but I figured if I did that the story would never be finished. ThereContinue reading “Short Story Finished!”

Here we are, another month gone by. I just finished the second draft of my short story by the skin of my teeth (literally finished up the final edits before posting this update). I had some kinks to work out and some changes to think through that meant I didn’t get into the third draftContinue reading “Title Pending”

For those one or two of you that may or may not have checked in on my home page throughout the month of October, you may have noticed a little progress update on a new mystery project. As of now, the first draft is complete! I’m going to give a small update on what itContinue reading “New Story Completed! Surprise!”
