The Closing of the Year

This is my writing blog and I try to keep it about writing. Every now and then something bigger pops and I want to get my feels out. Yesterday, Robin Williams died. You know this, but typing it out… well words are my medium these days. Typing it out makes it real. Typing it out […]

It’s a start

  It’s blurry, I know, but my short story, Hunting, hit  #22 on the Kindle Short Reads list yesterday. So I’m pretty stoked about that. Still looking at different ways to market and get the word out, because the weeks between now and publishing the first Monsters of Pittsburgh story are pretty long. Anything can […]

Still not sleeping, but…

So last night, 10 PM, I’m curled up on the couch, eyes closed, cat snuggled, and then boom, my brain snapped into alertness and I was up and going. I have no idea what is wrong with my head, but it appears to not be stopping for awhile. This happens and I just have to […]

Yes, it is Friday and that means you can grab the third Uncommon Animals story: In Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Mina’s already in a bad mood. Then a stranger shows up at Sam Whitestone’s house.

Insecure Writer’s Support Group – One Day

It’s time for the monthly airing of insecurities! *Kate, you’re a day early…* Yes, logical self I know, but I have a blog hop tomorrow, and I hate posting twice in one day. So, here we go:   I’m not selling any stories. It’s super frustrating. At first, I told myself, it’s because I’m writing […]

Still working

Never did get that fight scene done yesterday. And it’s not even the fight itself, it’s the lead up to the fight. I’m reworking the some of the emotions and dialogue going in. Little things, but they make for a better story. I had a bad bout of insomnia last night. So I have no […]
