We now return you to your regularly scheduled…

Wednesday, January 31, 2007

Okay, let’s try this again. I finally feel like writing again, so let’s see if it sticks.
For those of you that may be wondering, several factors contributed to my dropping off the grid for a couple months.
The first was a horrible case of NaNoWriMo hangover. After writing 50,000 words in a month and blogging about [...]

On your marks…

Tuesday, October 24, 2006

Okay, I’ve been talking about doing NaNoWriMo for a while now, but now it’s ON. I was able to convince everyone in my writing critique group to do this with me. Okay, well, against me. We all write, and the guy with the lowest final word count buys pizza for the group.
If you don’t know [...]

Got a quarter?

Sunday, October 15, 2006

Josh came up with an interesting idea the other day. Instead of monthly we should publish quarterly. Primarily, this is to make this more profitable, since we won’t lose as much in Fictionwise conversion fees. While I’m glad to have Fictionwise as a distribution partner, between their cut of the sale price and ebook conversion [...]

I couldn’t put it down…

Monday, October 9, 2006

I have two weaknesses: snappy dialogue and hot brunettes.
Over the weekend, my first days off after 12 days of work, I started watching the sixth season of Gilmore Girls on DVD, and before I knew it I found myself Sunday night having watched all 22 episodes in a row and the seventh season opener on [...]

I only feel dead…

Thursday, October 5, 2006

I’ve been quiet recently because the real world has seen fit to interfere with my writing. I worked all last weekend moving half the people in my office to a new building and I’m on my 11th day in a row at work. I hope to recharge this weekend.

Somebody stop me!

Thursday, September 28, 2006

Over at Writing On Your Palm, I’m about to start another article series, this one called “Going Wireless.” I’m going to cover everything I can do to do away with syncing or being tied down to any particular set of hardware, from hosted Exchange to music and podcast streaming to keeping the latest drafts of [...]

What, me burnout?

Tuesday, September 19, 2006

Josh is concerned about me. After last week’s marathon series of articles on WOYP while dealing with all the freaking problems at work, he’s afraid that I’m going to flame out and drop fiction for a while.
Part of me wants to, I’d be lying to say otherwise. But more than that, I’m strangely energized. I [...]

No, I’m not dead…

Sunday, September 17, 2006

I haven’t posted much recently here because I’ve been in nonfiction mode. Over at Writing On Your Palm, I’ve posted four installments of a daily series on tricking out your Windows Mobile Today screen. I think I’ve got one more to go.
I gotta tell ya, I don’t know how I’m pulling this off. The first [...]

Back in the saddle, continued…

Thursday, September 7, 2006

I have no idea what day it is, but I just got done with a minor polish of UC #5, Inquisition, and I can’t wait to hear what you folks think of it. Absolutely zero combat in this issue, unlike the near constant fight of the last two, but I still think it’s the most [...]

Here we go again…

Tuesday, August 22, 2006

This will be my behind-the-scenes author’s blog. I plan on posting from time to time about the process of writing my actual projects: Between Heaven & Hell, The Unification Chronicles and even a new project that has started writing me (that’s right) just recently. I’ll also be posting personal stuff here that you wouldn’t find on Writing [...]
