bad kitties and benicio del toro

Tally-ho, cutiepies! I was piffling around on Twitter and found a dream I’d shared there last year. Since it’s been forlikeEVER since I’ve blogged a dream, I thought it high time to rectify that oversight. *ahem* Here goes…. October 25, 2018Thanks to last night’s insomnia, I had to take a mid-morning nap or die. So …

my light-walkers universe timeline

This post is nothing more than me geeking out over my own storyverse. I indulged a bit a few weeks ago when I blogged about all the stories in the Light-Walker universe thus far, as well as the LW stories I have in mind for the rest of my natural life (and maybe beyond; we’ll …

the one with pants, outlines, and ergonomic bottle nipples

Every so often in conversation, I’ll blather something to a non-writer about how I wanted a work-in-progress to progress a certain way, but my characters informed me otherwise. “But you’re the author,” comes the puzzled reply. “Don’t you control where the story goes?” Well, yes. Of course. But no, not really. I used to be …

the definitive light-walkers post

That is a horrible title, but I don’t care. So, in cobbling together my previous post (and in trying to navigate the new UI of WordPress that has interloped since last I blogged [by Grabthar’s Hammer, I HATE new user-interfaces]), I realized that I’ve never really done a comprehensive post about the Light-Walkers universe. Doing …

ALL THE WRITING THINGS

Just a brief heyyo here’s what’s been up in my writing world: Last month, I completed, i.e. won, the summerly version of JuNoWriMo, of which you will be cognizant if you have ever given my blog any smidgen of serious attention whatsoever. After having spent almost one whole week of June out-of-commission health-wise, I actually …

YIPPEE! I love these stories and am so excited to share them with you!!! So, in case you didn’t know it yet — a few days back, I pubbed my latest book: The Elven Dead and Other Legends of the Light-Walkers! This one is an anthology of 5 short stories and one novella, all set …

what to do with this blog

I don’t know what to do with this blog. I always have good intentions, especially at the start of the year. New Year’s resolutions are fantastic! New Year’s resolutions suck! The age-old story of all human constructs, pretty much. I could philosophize further on that, but I’ve done that before, and regurgitation takes too much …

2018 book reads

Well, we’re multiple days into 2019, and I’ve not yet updated the two of you (who still read this blog) on my reading list for the previous year. So here ya go. To recap: last year’s goal was to read one nonfiction book concurrently with every fiction book. That sort of worked out. I met …

I won. 50,539 words in 30 days. BANGERANG.

And now, Camp NaNoWrimo, during which I shall endeavor to write another 30,000 words on this story. Should be do-able.

In stat updates, I have finally succeeded in introducing all the suspects. For my next trick, I’ll re-emphasize the apparent guilt of the primary suspect. Watch and be amazed. 😁
