I Wanna be a Nerd (c) 2009 Bryl R. Tyne

Clay straddled Dave's legs and leaned over until only the tips of his toes touched the floor. "Take it."

VAMMP: Conquering Dissension by Bryl R. Tyne

Unedited excerpt:

Alan awoke, as his Darrel dreams grew erotically vivid. With a groan, he rolled to the side and came to an abrupt stop. His tented boxers sufficed as a kickstand. Alan stared into the blackness. Four hours of rest had healed his abilities some. His hearing seemed keener, and he picked up curious sounds. A resonance he welcomed, as i

When Life Gets in the Way…

I wanted to touch on a subject that, as writers, affects us all.

LIFE.

First, as humans, we often are compelled to do what we like. That's our prerogative. As writers though, our preferences usually border on obssession. As "published" authors, with the deadlines, the promoting, and the required socializing, all of the above merges together into something akin to insanity.
