Hello, Internet! Honestly, I don't have a lot to report this week. I'm easily distracted, and was distracted by game stuff this week. I've been playing in a RuneQuest game now for about a year, year and a half, but I haven't run a tabletop in some time. A few friends have been looking for … Continue reading Weekly Update – 10/4/17
Hello, Internet! How's your week been? Good? (I can't hear you, so I'm going to assume good.) Mine's been good too. I finished a short story, and I'm almost finished with the first class of my MFA program. Most of the courses are two months long, but a few are just a month (including this … Continue reading Weekly Update – 9/27/17
Hello, Internet! Been a very read-ey week.

Hello, Internet! My week's been swell. Got an absolute boatload of reading done (some of it not exactly on purpose), so it's obviously been a good time. I managed to get through both of my goals from last week - although they weren't particularly strenuous - and I heard back and was accepted to an … Continue reading Weekly Update – 8/30/17
Hello, Internet! I feel I've been middlingly productive this week.

So, haven't been super productive on my writing, but I think that some … Continue reading Weekly Update – 8/23/17
Hello, Internet! Just finished up my writing goal from last week, so I figured I really ought to get going on my weekly post for this week. One of the main reasons I do this each week is for accountability - and I've gotta say, this week? It worked. Let's get to it! Reading This … Continue reading Weekly Update – 8/9/17
Hello, Internet! It's been a good week. Got some good work done on Rule, and I'm starting to feel pretty optimistic again about revising the blasted thing. Reading So I may have gone ahead and just finished re-reading The Shadow of What Was Lost over the past week. As I commented last week (regarding Percy Jackson & the … Continue reading Weekly Update – 8/2/17
Hello, Internet! This week's been pretty productive! In addition to wrapping up & publishing my review of Milo Yiannopolis' Dangerous, I got some good work done on my maps & setting for The Rule of Iron. Well, let's get to it, shall we?

Hello, Internet! First off, I've got to say - I love my family. They know quite well that I'm a recluse by nature. This past weekend was a family reunion, and for me it's wonderful that they're willing to let me skulk in the corner with a book for large portions of the day. … Continue reading Weekly Update – 7/19/17
Hello, Internet! I'm very, very, very happy to say that I've got a second draft done of "act one" of The Rule of Iron! This currently works out to be the first five chapters, but I wouldn't be surprised if chapter divisions change up at some point in the future. Calling this segment "act one" isn't to … Continue reading Weekly Update – 5/18/17
