Hello, lovely people of the internet! Progress with the goblets novel is being made, slowly but surely. I shall finish this. I shall. I've been using Pacemaker for writers now for about a week. My daily goal is rather small, but if I keep to it, I will reach my desired word count goal on… Continue reading Good Friday Post

Extra! Extra!
I have news--and I know how you like news. I've had a flash fiction (short story under 1,000 words) accepted for publication by Spark: A Creative Anthology. I'm not certain when it will come out, but I am quite chuffed, as the British say. I will keep you all posted and let you know when… Continue reading Extra! Extra!
