Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! I got a lot of writing done this week, but not a ton of the fiction variety. I crafted two blogs on my convention experience this year, and now that’s out of my system. My long holiday weekend was mostly... 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.

Epic Music Monday: Two Steps From Hell – The Fire In Her Eyes
This piece accompanied me a great deal as I wrote "The Unicorn Hunters". So much so that it might even be considered it's anthem... or perhaps more appropriately, the theme of my story's heroine, Aster. I love epic music! For me it is a perfect combination of the classic orchestral scoring, chorales and electronica music... Continue Reading →

Virgin and Unicorn by Domenichino (1581 – 1641)
A picture I found in doing my research for my short story 'The Unicorn Hunters'. My unicorns in the tale aren't like white horses with a horn as they are most commonly depicted nowadays. Instead, I've gone for a look that's a little closer to some medieval stylings of them. They are deer-sized, with hairy... Continue Reading →
