WIP-it Wednesday: October 25th, 2017
Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! The domino effect from getting my author’s site ready and the establishing a small publishing business continues to wreak havoc on my writing schedule. Last weekend, setting-up the posts I schedule for this blog got pushed out, and I thought... Continue Reading →
WIP-it… Thursday? My PortCon 2017 Wrap-Up, Part II
Picking up where I left off yesterday, it was Friday and the first of the two full-days of the convention. PortCon is a four day event, but the first and last are half-days (one into the evening and on the last it closes up shop at 5 pm). Therefore, Friday and Saturday are the “Big... Continue Reading →
WIP-it Wednesday: June 28th, 2017
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 →
WIP-it Wednesday: June 21st, 2017
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 →
WIP-it Wednesday: June 7th, 2017
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 →
WIP-it Wednesday: May 3rd, 2017
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 →

Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! Edits! Kim completed a double read of chapters 4-8 of Vivian’s Last Cigarette, and presented me with her feedback on Sunday. Now that she’s finished the first act, I was pleased that its surprise at the very end affected her... Continue Reading →
WIP-it Wednesday: November 9th, 2016
Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! It’s been a full and creative week this time around. Things started off on a bad foot, with my wife and I both getting stuffy and sore-throated the day after Halloween. The first cold of the season always comes with... Continue Reading →
WIP-it Thursday: June 30th, 2016
Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! Yesterday I posted an overview of my experience game mastering and being a staff member at PortCon and how that ties into my life as writer. To surmise, I had a blast and it was a very fulfilling endeavor for... Continue Reading →

Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! I’m recovering from the convention, and it was an awesome four-day marathon! Everyone had a good time in the games I ran and created, and I didn’t have to cancel any of them for a lack of players. At one... Continue Reading →
Convention Time!
I’ve been writing like a MADMAN this past week trying to get everything ready to knock some socks off at PortCon 2016 with some awesome RPGs and game mastering! It all starts tomorrow, and I’ve still got things to finish! So no work-in-progress check-in this week… Because I’m too busy working on said works in... Continue Reading →

Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! This week I received great beta-reader feedback on both The Unicorn Hunters and Tears of the Joyous Mare. Lauren and Amy both did fantastic jobs and pointed out a number of things to refine. :-) As The Unicorn Hunters was... Continue Reading →

Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! I finally received the feedback from my second alpha-reader on The Unicorn Hunters and Tears of the Joyous Mare. She’s been going through a rough patch the past few weeks, so it’s entirely forgivable and things are looking up for... Continue Reading →
WIP-it Wednesday: June 1st, 2016
Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! This past week has been a doozy. My writing took a backseat to my seventeen-year-old cat when he got a nasty eye infection. I was very upset with the possibility that we might have to put him down. However, the... Continue Reading →

Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! Hey there, true-believers! I’ve got a new story ready for your enjoyment over at Aethereal Engines called Rumble at the Red Rock Tavern. :-) It’s a one thousand-word flash fiction that I wrote for a writer’s challenge going on this...

The Worldbuilding Dungeon and Other Perils of the Gaming Writer
I’m not afraid to admit it: I’ve been playing dice-and-paper role-playing games for most of my life. Starting with Dungeons & Dragons, I’ve been gaming and collecting RPGs since I was a kid in the 80s; It’s a great hobby that I love dearly, and it’s a pastime that has brought me long-standing friendships. The... Continue Reading →
