Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! I released the first chapter of Cretaceous Queen —my novelette of teenage superheroes, magic, dinosaurs, and robots— on Saturday, and it’s begun to pick-up traction! With lots of action and cliffhangers, I’m serializing it with a chapter each week until... Continue Reading →
It’s a different kind of WIP-it Wednesday today, as all my efforts this week have been focused on getting my writer’s website ready and starting my own small press publishing business. For some reason, all this work is complicated and time consuming. ;-) However, it’s also very exciting and rewarding! A major effort of mine... Continue Reading →
Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! The past week was a busy one. I got my short story Far from Acheron into a fourth draft after working with its latest critiquer’s feedback over a late evening. We did some back-and-forth between us on the Google Doc,...

Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! Cretaceous Queen –my epic tale of magical girls, superheroes, dinosaurs and giant alien robots– is just shy of six thousand words as of today. I hadn’t expected the short story to get this long, figuring that it’d top-out at around... Continue Reading →
Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read!

Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! I entered my weekend with designs to get back to work on Vivian’s Last Cigarette, but several factors prevented me from achieving that goal. The first of these was plain old exhaustion. This last month had run me down emotionally... Continue Reading →
What a week! The month leading up to it was a real rollercoaster, but I had a tremendously fun time at PortConMaine all the same! By the end of it, I was exhausted –conventions and back to back gaming and game-mastering are rarely restful– but it was a good kind of exhausted as I came... Continue Reading →
Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! It’s been a packed week. Leading up to it, my old cat became very sick and then passed away. And prior and post to that sad event I had bookended weekends that required me to work on my house and... Continue Reading →
Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! As I mentioned in my last update, the month of June in general will find me shifting my focus away from Vivian’s Last Cigarette for the next few weeks. Instead, I’m working on and finishing the RPG sessions I’ll be... Continue Reading →
Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! My writing was interrupted by a Saturday that included a half-day of yardwork and a lawnmower that died on me. However, my inspiration never faltered. Even with an abbreviated amount of time to write this weekend, I had added 2,500... Continue Reading →
Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! Steady progress was made on Vivian’s Last Cigarette this weekend.

Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! I finished the new chapter four for Vivian’s Last Cigarette late Sunday night. Coming in at 4,400 words, it contains a lot of interaction between my orc protagonists and several minor characters. This chapter definitely relays a feel for the... Continue Reading →
Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! Not much movement on the novel to report this week. I edited the 1,700 words I wrote on Vivian’s last weekend, and then added about 500 more to get the fourth chapter to the point of introducing a new character.... Continue Reading →
