Quick update
There hasn’t been much activity here the last few days. I’ve been sick with a pretty bad head cold so it’s led to not a lot of creativity. I haven’t done much work on the book or even the plot though I did read a few short stories that made me wonder about some of [...]
Ok so I procrastinated a little….
But my loss is your gain!
I was doing some surfing of website, etc and I found a bunch of links I still want to look through that will likely be helpful writing wise. Some author sites, some resource sites, you get the idea. If you are like me…and you are keeping a blog [...]

Grr..let’s do over
I was almost done with a post and I blew it away. So let’s start over quickly.
I realized today that for the piece I’m writing, I’m going to end up needing up to 100k words or more. A typical Urban Fantasy such as something by Kim Harrison or Jim Butcher is anywhere from 100k [...]
Impromtu Podcast: Discussing my Plot
The other day in my chat room, I had an impromtu podcast with some of the people in there. You can only hear me but I read their comments and respond. It’s an interesting brainstorming session. Some things have changed since I recorded it. Please feel free to comment back with responses or call the [...]
