Rambling post is rambling…
Lately I’ve found myself wondering why it’s been so hard to put words on paper. Admittedly, this isn’t the easiest thing to do at the best of times. But lately, I can’t do any work unless I take myself out of the house and go hole up in a cafe, sandwich shop, understanding friend’s kitchen…

Review of Twisted Dark, Volume Four
Those of you who have been around this Web site for a while may remember my Conversation with Neil Gibson in the wake of Dragon*Con 2013. In the interview we talked about his work on the Twisted Dark series, and some of the other stuff that T Publications is putting out there. (You may recall…

A Conversation with Jared Zabaldo…
“I can’t calculate what it saves USAMM to treat people right, but almost no one quits our company for a better position elsewhere. We don’t lose experience or have to go through that taxing hiring process. Who knows what that really saves you? You almost can’t calculate it.” ~Jared Zabaldo, President, Business Operations, USAMM Almost…

Something cool…
…no, not the interviews I’m (still) working on. Let me tell you, it’s been interesting around here. Eventually I will get around to posting. But in the meantime, I want to share something from graphic artist Sylvester Temple: You may ask – what is that? That—or rather, they—are Rose Allen Lee and Frank, from work-in-progress…

Writing again…
This year started off more with submitting things I’ve already written, but there was that little voice in the back of my head saying: “Hey, you there calling yourself a writer, better get your butt in the chair and your fingers on the keyboard.” That little voice only ever calls to my writer self; I…

First post for the New Year!
A new year is here and I, like many others, take this time to look backward and forward, taking stock of where I am, and how that stacks up to where I thought I would be. I’m not a big one for resolutions. I AM a big one for plans – I make them all…

As 2013 ticks away…
My goal before the New Year is to have my desk clean and organized. Okay, MOSTLY clean and organized. It may or may not happen. Anyway, I have the day “off,” so of course I have spent it doing laundry, some dishes, some organizing here and there. I sent off the next excerpt of Border Watch…

Just another early Saturday morning …
Which is really when I seem to get all my work on my blog, etc., done. Mostly because it’s quiet. Until SOMEONE decides to wake up and come in and put on Bollywood, at which point my concentration is shot because seriously, who can write stuff when there are really bright colors and incorrigibly catchy…

Unexpected Parade
Saturday Rob and I decided to load the dogs into the car and head downtown to the local farmers’ market. This market is the equivalent of the bar in Cheers, where everyone knows your name—or in our case, where everyone knows the name of Captain, our Basset hound. However, on this day, we drove down…
