Recently I received a rejection for an anthology. I’ve been publishing since 1998, so rejection isn’t new to me. The e-mail did not state the reason, but that I could contact the editor if I really felt the need for an explanation. I didn’t. I already had a pretty good idea as to why myContinue reading “Go There.”

Insert Witty Title Here.
So, because I suck at keeping this blog current, I should mention that I recently appeared over at Mary DeSantis’ blog, Out of the Lockbox. My thesis is due, in a way that resembles a completed novel enough for me to pass, in April, which despite my attempts to avoid it now demands my attention.Continue reading “Insert Witty Title Here.”

Quick Updates
Yesterday I received a promo print copy of the first book I ever edited for Musa Publishing, Stained Glass Summer by Mindy Hardwick. I’m very happy for Mindy and glad it’s doing so well. I have three stories submitted, one completed as of yesterday, and another that will be finished this weekend. And I’m planningContinue reading “Quick Updates”
Long Time, No Update
Hey kids, so it’s been a few months since the last post. I’ve been insanely busy and rather lazy about updating, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t lots of exciting things going on. First off, May marked the release of Electronic Saviors 2 and my CD debut. If you want to hear my track butContinue reading “Long Time, No Update”
No Wonder My Nose Keeps Bleeding…
A long weekend is nearly upon me (hooray for a day job that follows the federal holiday schedule), to be filled with thesis revisions and progress on the five short stories currently brewing. (One is for a dieselpunk anthology put out by the fine folks at Twit Publishing, but that’s not due until the endContinue reading “No Wonder My Nose Keeps Bleeding…”
From Words to Pictures
I’ve written 22,000 words (just on my novel–I’m also 4 pages into a new short story) in the past two months. This accomplishment seems to have spurred my creative energy in general, because now all I want to do is create something. Anything. A recent post of mine bemoaned the fact that I didn’t haveContinue reading “From Words to Pictures”
A 3-Day Weekend, Of Sorts
I don’t take a lot of time off. It’s true of my day job (my inexplicable loyalty is a topic for another post and/or a psychiatrist) and it’s certainly true of writing. My goal for this term is to write as much of my thesis as possible which, now that I’m past the struggles presentedContinue reading “A 3-Day Weekend, Of Sorts”
Summer break, I hardly knew ye.
In a couple of weeks I will be starting my second term of grad school. I’m looking forward to it, but damn, I need a vacation. On that note, Zach and I have tentative plans to go somewhere in the fall. I’ve started saving up for it, wherever “it” may turn out to be. We’veContinue reading “Summer break, I hardly knew ye.”
