Capclave 2024 Schedule
How has it been 5 years since I attended Capclave? I had to double-check my own blog because I didn’t believe it.

June Wrap-Up & July Goals
Whew, June was a crazy month! Two releases within 2 weeks sounded like a good idea at the time, especially with connected stories, but my brain was absolutely fried. That’s one part of why my monthly update is a bit behind schedule. The other parts are because I also visited New York City to spend…

April Wrap-Up & May Goals
Did I finish the rough draft of my current WIP last month? Not exactly. Along with an impromptu trip to Ohio for the solar eclipse, I may have gotten distracted by a short story submission for a week. I’m still on schedule for my planned release date, though. Even better, I have the official cover…

February Wrap-Up & March Goals!
The only thing worse than losing a week to being sick? Finally feeling better, catching your spouse’s cold and getting sick a second time, and starting the next month already behind schedule. Luckily, life craziness is why I always pad my writing schedules, so I’m in no danger of missing any deadlines. (And I promise…
