Last week, I shared my reading list from 2020 as part one of summarizing my year. If you're interested in seeing what goes into my mind to create the stuff in this article, you should check it out. This week, I'm going to discuss what I've been working on—both published, and unpublished. The Year of … Continue reading 2020 Year in Review
During the 2019 holidays, I had a conversation with my sister about our reading habits. At this time I didn't feel like I read all that much. More than the average American, surely, but probably right around the "one book per month" goal she was considering. Consequently, I decided to spend time this year (2020) … Continue reading 2020 Reading List
Well, it's been a while, hasn't it? Six months, give or take, since the last post I wrote. A lot's happened since then. Bought a house and moved. Read a few books. Wrote some stuff. Took a few classes. Looking back, it's hard to quantify and elaborate upon lived experience. Today, I'm gonna ramble about … Continue reading The Story So Far…
(Yes, I know it's September now. Shush.) The last month's been interesting. My gut reaction is to say "No, it hasn't been fruitful" but I don't think that's entirely accurate. Jiharel sat on the backburner through August, although it's still bouncing around in my mind, with a lot of the same challenges and wonderings as I … Continue reading End of August Update
Hello, Internet! Haven't written anything on here for a few weeks. Largely, I haven't felt like I have something interesting to say. I'm still in that state to some degree. But, it's been a while so I figured I ought to at least pop on and talk a little bit on what I've been up to. … Continue reading End of July Update
Hello, internet! Before I dig into what I've been up to this week, I'd like to give a quick shoutout to Summer Games Done Quick. I've mentioned GDQ on here before, but to rehash: they're a charity which does two videogame marathons each year to fundraise for a selected charity. This marathon's donating to Doctors … Continue reading Weekly Update – 6/27/18
Hello, Internet! Well, it's been a pretty busy couple of weeks for me. Mostly for stuff popping up all at once in the current class I'm in (a workshop, toward my MFA); it turns out that when multiple projects need attention in a short time frame, I can't really take a few hours aside to … Continue reading Weekly Update – 6/21/18
Sorry to those of you waiting on my every oh-so-precious word, but no post this week. I owe a workshop submission on Monday, and need to go bury myself in a revision hole.
Hello, Internet! I'm going to try being brief this week, since I'm in the middle of working on a thing and want to get back to it. Being intentionally vague here (more on that below). Forward! Reading I've continued to chip away at Moby-Dick this past week. I'd say I'm somewhere between a third and halfway … Continue reading Weekly Update – 6/6/18
Hello, Internet! Books, books, so many books. I feel like, overall, this past week's been rather productive. I managed to get through The Dragon's Legacy, and then move forward and read the newly released sequel, The Forbidden City (both by Deborah Wolf). I've also made some slow, but solid progress on my short story revision. I'll be … Continue reading Weekly Update – 5/30/18
