Engineer’s Log: I’m Possibly a Manimal, but I’m not a Minimalist
Well, I didn’t win the November writing challenge on the writers group, but I don’t mind. The winner had an excellent entry and as I said before, A Contract in Azure and Indigo was twice the size of the second biggest entry. I don’t think the issue was quality, it was just too long for...

Ten Books
There has been a chain-request going around the internet for months now asking people to list ten books that have stayed with them in some way. They do not have to be great works of literature to be on the list, just books that have affected them in some way. While I wait for more... Continue Reading →
The Wall of White
My friend David asked me… I wish I could write. I sit down at my laptop and my brain is one big chaotic jumble… How do you get your thoughts in order and get those words down? This is a great question. Not just to me but to all writers in general. I’ll start by... Continue Reading →

I start this week doing the same with the old fifth and sixth chapters to create a new chapter four. This has been trudging work when I have had both limited... Continue Reading →
New Fiction! “The Visitor” is up on Aethereal Engines!
I posted some new fiction today on Aethereal Engines and I’m reblogging it here! I’m still in the middle of working and revising my Unsundered novella-novel, but I was inspired earlier this week to create a short story called “The Visitor” for a writers challenge. It’s a standalone short fantasy story and a quick read... Continue Reading →
Engineer’s Log, September 26th 2014: Insert Name and Title Here
I'm still revising, editing, cutting and moving things about this week on The Lost Tomb of Omo! This type of work is hard to quantify in word count and I don’t have the desire or time to setup some methodology to track and relay it. So you’ll just need to trust me when I say,... Continue Reading →
