7/15/14
Today I am at the beach. It’s 10 am and the first hint of sunlight to break through the near-constant cloud barrier since I’ve been here is shining through my window. By the time I actually get my bathing suit on and get to the shore, the sun will already be gone. It will probably start pouring just as I’ve settled in. Sand and computers don’t mix well, so I’ve been catching up on my reading instead of writing.
My birthday is next week. For those of you wh...

News:
The edits for Heartbeat are back with LT3! That story is ready for publishing. Look for it in September. Of course the second I got the edits done, LT3 sent me more. The Oracle’s Golem and Road to Home are sitting in my inbox right now, waiting for me to get started. Sigh. It’s never ending!!!
I have a new release date for Road to Home. It’s set to come out November 26, 2014.
I have finished writing Thunderbird. It still needs a thorough edit, but I’ve decided t...

Locating a missing prince should be a simple matter, but if Nyle has l...

News: Writing and Edits
6/21/14
Writing has been an interesting endeavor these past few weeks. I wanted to work on Dragon Consultant, one of the two stories I’m writing for The Oracle Series, or even the story I’m hoping to finish for Dreamspinner’s Advent Calender that’s due really soon. That hasn’t happened. Instead I’ve been working on Thunderbird, my submission for LT3’s Intertwined anthology call. Thunderbird is both a very easy story to write and a very difficult one. It’s...

Paint, Guns, Money, and Love is now available in print! Get your paper copy today!
I am seventy percent done with the edits for Heartbeat and I don’t foresee that last thirty percent taking more than a week or two to complete. I’d say I’m looking forward to not having edits on my plate for a while, but Third Time’s The Charm, the free short story I’m working on eventually publishing with LT3, is still sitting there mocking me. I will finish Heartbeat and t...

There’s only a few more days to pre-order Paint, Guns, Money, and Love! It arrives in stores on June 4th.
I finally finished the edits for Road to Home. They’re going to be put into the hands of the wonderful editor who did Road to Revenge for a full editing job. I’m hoping not to see it again for a few months, at which point my frustration with the story should have faded. There’s still no word on a new release date, but I’ll keep you posted when I know m...
