Apologies for the recent silence. As you can see, there’s been a lot of stuff going on, and precious little has had anything to do with writing. I’ll be back with a real status update once the mountain of unpacked boxes has been successfully turned into a series of…
It’s been more than a month since I posted the final installment of my short story, The Stars That Sing. Now that the dust has settled, I thought it would be fun to do a quick retrospective. What went well? What went poorly? What is the sure-fire secret to overnight…
Well, it took a few weeks, all told, but we’ve finally reached the conclusion to The Stars That Sing, and I’m excited to hear what you all think. If you want to re-read previous chapters (or arrived at this page without having done so), you can start over with…
It’s time for yet another #TwoChapterTuesday. With only a handful of chapters to go, the action is definitely heating up, and I am curious to hear what you all think! If you want to re-read previous chapters (or arrived at this page without having done so), you can…

I’d start off by saying what a quiet month January was… if I wasn’t secretly convinced that January was far less than a month this year. I’m reasonably certain that it was roughly 1-2 weeks long, and if someone told me it had actually only lasted a handful of hours,…
