Remember how at the beginning of the week, I was all I love being busy! I have soooo much to do! Well, I do love being busy, but I just couldn’t seem to get my act together. I got all the scripts done for the comic, but after that… well… *shrugs* It took me a day […]
Remember a few weeks back when I put out a call for an artist? Well, somebody answered the call! And now the lovely Ms Ashley and I are making Uncommon Animals into a web comic! (Please go like that facebook page that I have now linked twice. Ms Ashley runs it, and she’ll have more updates and art […]
Werewolves is turned in and as clean as I can get it. And because I was feeling ambitious I also turned in the Omnibus Edition of Monsters of Pittsburgh And so starts Maintenance Week. Every three or four months, I have work to do for the publishing side of the business, whether it’s making banners […]
Hey, Logical Side, are you awake? Barely. You had a bad case of insomnia last night. Which is why you think this blog post is a good idea. Whatever. I have a puzzle for us. No, you want to see if you’re right, and that gender is only one facet of a character, and frankly, […]
Comes out tomorrow! Though you can pre-order it from Amazon. This story has a story. And it starts with the original Mina and Matty story: The Hunted.

Yes, it is that that time of year again. And really, I’m super stoked. I LOVE this holiday! But, I’m really, really glad I don’t have a ton to do writing-wise this year. Last year, I decided to start the Uncommon Animals series in December. I had no cover, just an idea for one. This month, […]
“Did you know that Pittsburgh has more bridges than Venice, and more stairs than San Francisco?” Why did I pick the opening sentence as the one to sum up the last story? Because the entire piece hinges on what Giorgios knows that you don’t. Which is quite a bit. And yes, I know common wisdom […]
I’m weak sometimes. The perfect like to wrap up my only true Romance. It gets the capital ‘R’, because it follows the mold perfectly. Well, the ending is more Happy For Now, rather than Happily Ever After… Okay, the ending is “I promise that I’ll come back and we can be happy then,” but yes, […]
This was one of the hardest stories to write in the Uncommon Animals series. I’m not a big fan of everything working out neatly just because these are the protagonists. And I had a hell of time balancing Mina’s bad ass monster hunting self with the broken person she had become. Not to mention all […]
Still not writing much. I have totally blown my lead. But maybe today. I’ve been stuck on a scene, and trying to work my way through it. But putting my mental issues aside, let’s talk about stuff that’s already written. The Hunted. Why am I bringing this up? Because a friend found this fabulous little […]
