Writer and Bookworm.
The Bookworm Is In The Cards Hello! Welcome to the Bookworm newsletter, where we... well I talk books, magic, and media. This edition is all about Tarot! I would love any and all feedback so feel free to reply to this email or contact me at my preferred internet lurking places down at the... Continue Reading →
I really enjoy challenging myself with storytelling and Visual Verse is one I just keep coming back to, especially with Story-A-Day just around the corner. Read "Verticality," my latest Visual Verse publication here.
Apparently, this is my week for stories coming out, because my first ever paid published story "Bruises" has just been re-released in 200 CCs' Year One Anthology! It looks like a great collection and I am really excited to be a part of it. What a lovely way to end the year.
Pitch Wars, for those who don't know, is a yearly contest run by author Brenda Drake.

May is upon us and for those of us doing Story-A-Day, the exciting terror of challenging ourselves to finish one short story a day has begun.

Continuing on the theme of jumpstarting one's creativity with great and unnecessary side projects, let's talk about Story A Day. Story A Day is a challenge, often called the Nanowrimo of short stories, that dares you to start and finish one story everyday of May (and sometimes September). There are no word limits on the stories and no... Continue Reading →
I have been in the midst of editing. Editing my work, articles for TUBE., and projects for friends and family. There's a certain rigid mindset necessary for that kind of work. You have to be able to cut and comment with enough certainty to convince the other person (or yourself) that you are right, that your... Continue Reading →
