Recently, as I often do, I was contemplating how to hawk my writing for money. Typically, such musings yield no result other than “finish book and publish it,” but an answer fell into my lap with my most recent musings. I follow several publishing resources, and one of the resources whose newsletter I subscribe to … More Love A Good Fairytale

I started two think-piece-ish/rant posts, but both of them turned out to be bad and stupid and I couldn’t get them finished. But I really wanted to post today, so have a chunk of book. Out of context, of course. Dwyn picked her way through the workroom and the shop to the front door. She … More Another Book Snippet

I want to, as I have in the past, label this “[Title of Work] Snippets, Part 1” so that this can be continuous and easy to find. The only problem with that is that neither this book nor its accompanying series have titles yet. So we’re just going to have to wait on that little … More A Pleasantly Ambiguous Snippet

So, I started writing with Dwyn again and now I can’t stop. I’m just collecting little vignettes of her. Who knows whether I’ll use them or not? They’re a dandy time, regardless. This is one of the longer ones. ‘Tis her facing her fear of water (read: drowning in the water, more specifically). If you … More Promises, Promises

A working title. Because she was a fool for a plum, get it? This is a sub-par intro to inform you that this is part two (and the final part) of the story I shared last post. Anyway. You get to see into her internal logic and humanity a little bit in this. I kinda … More Plum Fool

(I’m reasonably confident I didn’t just butcher Welsh in the title, but if someone who speaks Welsh happens to read this and I did … I’m sorry, I’m just a West Coast American who has recently discovered a love for Wales. I’m tryin’!) That’s right, ladies and gentlefolk, we’re talking about WALES AGAIN. If you’re … More Wales, Fy Nghariad

Ohoho, I am nervous to share this with you. But I also want to. It’s a conflicted feeling. So I’m just going to do it. If you hate it, don’t tell me. Or do, but phrase it gently. Maybe just scroll to the comments now, tell me you love me, then come back here and read it. … More A Snippet for Your Perusal

I did it. I wrote something. And I am way too pleased with it. It’s basically just a piece of flash fiction that showcases my deep-seated desire to be the authorial love child of Trenton Lee Stewart and Lemony Snicket, but it was buckets of fun to write. I don’t give myself a lot of … More The Birthday School

Hello all. It’s been a while. A couple things have happened since my last post. The Tempest was cancelled (I think I’m finally done crying about that) and I’m now home for the rest of the semester, as classes have moved online. You all know why. Since these developments, I found the Quarantine Playwriting Bakeoff. It is … More I’ve Written a Mediocre Script
