Champion of the Dead is Off to Beta Readers and More
Champion of the Dead is off to beta readers! Huzzah! This is my third round trying to come up with a satisfying sequel. It wasn’t that it was harder than the first, or that the other attempts weren’t good, it was that, well, there was a lot to sort out after the end of Savior…

Midnight Musings
Executive dysfunction is kicking my ass. That and life are really giving it to me. There’s just been so much going on that I haven’t had a chance to catch my breath, and getting any of it done has been a Sisyphean task. It’s been six years now since my life got upended, longer really…

The Paths We Take
It’s the uncertainty that gets to me. I’m the kind of person who likes to have a backup plan for a backup plan because nothing ever seems to go right. Backup plans fail often too but they bring a sense of security, of having a way out that might save me this time. But plans…

Discarding Work
I made the executive decision to throw out fifty thousand words (not in Savior of the Damned, in case you’re worried). It was not made lightly, especially not after throwing out around fifty thousand words just a few months ago. For the record, none of it was bad. Most of it is also salvageable, at…

I Have Mastered Outlines
Guys, gals, and nonbinary pals, I have learned how to make outlines work. I sort of saw how other people used them but it took a long time to figure out how to make them work. Maybe it’s because I’m neurodiverse. Maybe I just missed it by a mile. For whatever reason, it took a…

Savior of the Damned announcement
Starting November 4th and every Friday after, I’m releasing a new chapter of my upcoming novel, Savior of the Damned! In case you missed the last announcement, I’ve edited the book and sent it to a few beta readers, but I can’t afford to pay an editor to give it the TLC it deserves. So,…

Discovery Writing and Other Tidbits
I’ve had to admit I’m a discovery writer. I admire those that can write outlines and stick to them because it’s a superpower I’ve never been able to achieve. My first book took eight years, give or take six months, to get to where I am in Savior of the Damned. Part of it was…

Announcement
I am excited. Why, you ask? Because I’m about to show you something incredibly cool. The idea for the book I’ve been working on is about fifteen years old. Last year I finished the rough draft of the first Guardians of Gaia book, this year I polished it up, and I’m here to show you why you should…

Life Updates
Everything has been pulled from Royal Road. Thank you to those that read my work on there, but it wasn’t panning out the way I had hoped, and I’d like to get paid for my efforts. Other Worlds wasn’t finished, so I’m working on finishing up the rest of the stories before posting them to…
