So tomorrow my latest story, Talasam, is going live. So if you haven’t gotten around to reading the first two Monsters of Pittsburgh stories… well, give them a shot! So pick them up and get ready for Talasam: Matty Grekov is a bundle of paranoia and anxiety, held together by […]
Ahhh the monthly air of insecurities. I’m a feminist, in case you weren’t aware, and that mentality very much effects my writing. And no, I am insecure about bring a feminist or apologizing for it. Nor do I worry about how my feminist characters will effect sales. Mostly, because I know that treating people equally […]
I’m 7k and one story in! So yes, I am drafting and keep myself ahead of schedule. I need the extra wordage, since we host Thanksgiving at our place. If fact, tomorrow I’m doing a deep clean of the kitchen since the kids have off of school. But the drafting goes well. Knowing the characters […]
It’s the beginning of Nanowrimo! I’m using mine to finish the final Mina and Matty series. I have the first story finished, so I figured I’d share the beginning of that. Warning: MASSIVE Monsters of Pittsburgh Spoilers to follow: His battered kidneys protested as Rick stretched. He’s been distracted knowing that Jen would be here […]
Yeah in honor of both Halloween and the blog hop I’m writing for, I have free stories tomorrow. The first two Uncommon Animals stories: These are the first two Mina and Matty stories, and again they are FREE tomorrow!
I have been staring at this blog for an hour. The truth is, with Nanowrimo coming up, I have nothing much to talk about. I did get some help with a translation, which was awesome and so, so cool. More on that next month. And I read a friend’s book, well her partial draft. She’s […]
Well, I have critiquing to do, and I have been doing it, but writing for me… Nope. Nada. Nothing. Wendigo needs proofreading (as always), but really, nothing until I listen to it in a few weeks. And I’m trying not to draft until Nanowrimo. Yes, I AM doing Nanowrimo. I’m hoping to finish my Mina […]
So I disappeared for week. Sorry… kind of. My father passed away, and writing was really the last thing on my mind. It still feels weird to be writing about him today. My father was a private person. I’m sure he’d be embarrassed I was writing about him now. So I won’t. Not really. See […]
My mom caught me listening to one of my stories last night, headphones in, robot voice going, while I minutely adjusted sentences. When she asked why I had her read the sentence I was currently working on. ‘There was no was door.’ “Kate, that sentence is wrong.” “Yup, but because I wrote it, I know […]
Did my text to voice session last night. Talasam is finished, and I didn’t see the point in waiting any longer. So I compiled the .epub, and uploaded to Amazon a few days early. Yes, you can pre-order, but no reading until November 6. Now that Talasam is functional, I’ll be concentrating on Wendigo and […]
