June 1st is the right around the corner, and with it it, the end of the Uncommon Animals series. Luckily, I’m ready. Been reading Hunter’s Moon out loud to the husband. I’ll be all set for June 1st. But so will you! Because I’m running a sale! Yup, with minimal work on your part, on […]
No, I won’t be gushing over my proofreaders, though I should, and far more often than I do. No, today I need to ask for a favor, as I indulge myself in a little shameless self promotion. See, if you click on this link you’ll go to Barnes and Noble, and BOOM! there are my […]
Publishing Day! What were you thinking? Anyway, this month’s offering is The Hunt at the Haunt. When a demon gets into the bar, Rita has no choice but to call Mina. Can she fight without her partner there to plan it and can she trust the demon hunters not to turn on her while she […]
Apparently, I AM supposed to be a part of this. I got tagged by not just Ripley Nox, but Jesse Pearle and Gina Drayer. Sorry ladies, my head has been directly up my ass the last few weeks. So without further making of excuses, I shall Blog Hop! 1) What am I working on? Lots […]
This has been a day for short stories and fight scenes. First off, I am about to have Sam and Dean fight a wendigo. The story I’m publishing on Thursday, The Hunt at the Haunt, is also a short story. And this morning, I got a great critique on another short, although the fight scene […]
The best part of being organized and ahead of schedule. When something trips me up, be it second degree burns from my wrist to shoulder or going toe to toe with my depression, I can keep plowing ahead. How far ahead am I this month? I just have to upload the text Wednesday. The cover […]
Still not up to my usual daily word count, but I made progress on that parody. Unfortunately, I had a massive time slip due to my being depressed. It just occurred to me this morning that I publish in four days and I don’t have a blurb for the next story. I’ll get it done […]
I still have that drag ass, don’t wanna do anything, feeling of ennui. I’m sore, mostly between my shoulder blades. It’s where I carry my tension. And I’m forcing myself to move beyond it. It’s a struggle I am very familiar with. I want to sleep. I can drink twice my normal amount of coffee […]
Back in the publishing train. I have ten days to polish up the latest Uncommon Animals story, The Hunt at the Haunt. Although, truth be told, I’m not particularly stressed about it. I need to do the usual frantic and inevitable proofreading, but it’s been done for quite some time. Far more fun to contemplate […]
For me, the hardest part of self-publishing is where I have to push my own stuff. Shout outs to my fellow authors, no problem. Chronicling my struggles and triumphs with the writing process, easy as pie. Talking up my own work and urging people to buy it? Heaven forbid. It’s something I’m working on. Anyway, I have […]
