Scavengers, Chapter 1
Despite taking a week off to work on Scavengers, I still have to push the pub date back (again). So, as a thank you for waiting patiently, I give you the first chapter! -1- I was already having a pretty bad couple of days before I got kidnapped. Not that my life was really all…

inspirations: wolf point
I talk a little about my inspiration for the first book in the Wolf Point series over on the Hitchhikers page, but as I continue the series I feel the need to talk about an inspiration that has actually helped me to build the world of the Wolf Point series. One day, I was looking…

Scavengers cover reveal!
Scavengers finally has a cover! This took me a long time… mostly due to issues getting permission to use images. For both Hitchhikers and Dreamwalkers, I was able to find images over at sxc.hu and Flickr, and the photographers got back to me fairly quickly. Both of the images I used for this cover were…

9th Nanowrimo win!
With only a few hours to spare, I made it past 50,000 words to win my 9th Nanowrimo. By win, I just mean that I got to 50K. I did not actually finish my novel, which is why Wayward Ghosts is still up under Works In Progress. But I am pleased with its progression and…

i’ve been such a slacker…
Since I proudly completed my Camp Nanowrimo goal back at the end of May, I’ve written maybe 5 sentences? Summer really makes me a slacker. There’s so much to do! It’s too nice out to be inside! I keep opening up my “Beast of Gevaudan” word document and staring at where I left it at…

editing
Look, see, I’m editing Dreamwalkers! The TV is even off! (Made possible due to the completion of my “Parks & Rec” marathon). My goal is to complete editing by the end of this week. Only 13 chapters to go! And then another read-through! And probably another round of editing… Editing is a lot more work…

I am not very nice to my characters
I’m nearing the end of Camp Nanowrimo and last night I ended up writing the most in one day that I have all month (a whopping 1,300 words), and once again my main character ended up giving himself stitches (this also happens in Hitchhikers). For some reason I feel the need to break my characters…
