Flashing, Star-Dusted Sirens, and the Return of the Novel Revisions

My story "The Swan Maiden" is now out in the current issue of … Continue reading Flashing, Star-Dusted Sirens, and the Return of the Novel Revisions

Blog all the things!

Lately life seems to be happening faster than I can blog about it, which is in many ways a good thing. It's also probably what Twitter was created for, but unfortunately, Twitter and I don't quite get each other. We're like co-workers who can get along perfectly well in the workplace, but in social situations … Continue reading Blog all the things!

France, shiny writing news, and the impending arrival of the cymbal-clapping demon monkeys

Life has been so amazingly nice to me lately that I'm expecting the other shoe to drop at any moment, complete with an army of cymbal-clapping demon monkeys. I'm a pessimist like that. But in the meantime, I shall revel in the shiny! I just got back from a rather lovely trip to France with … Continue reading France, shiny writing news, and the impending arrival of the cymbal-clapping demon monkeys

Trespass: An Anthology of Speculative Fiction

What's this? A post from me two days in a row? Next it will be dogs and cats living together...mass hysteria! Ok, now that I've gotten that out of my system, onto the shameless plugging that brought me here. I'm pleased to be appearing with several lovely fellow writerly types in Trespass, a speculative fiction anthology … Continue reading Trespass: An Anthology of Speculative Fiction

Blog post at Penumbra and other miscellany

Sorry to resurface with nothing but pimpage, but it's about all I have time for until the Semester Workload from Hell is over. That said, onto the shameless self-promotion: * Yesterday I was lying; today I'm babbling about suspension of disbelief and what the phrase actually means over at Penumbra eMag's blog. * I've added … Continue reading Blog post at Penumbra and other miscellany

“Ghost Writer to the Dead” & Happy Shiny Writing Time

But on the bright side, two shiny writerly things: 1) First, pimpage: my story "Ghost Writer to the Dead" is now out in the October … Continue reading “Ghost Writer to the Dead” & Happy Shiny Writing Time
