    The Wedding Fund Update

    If you’ve been checking the widget in my sidebar, than you already know that our friends have donated $450 to the wedding fund in just over three weeks. James and I have been blown away by everyone’s generosity, and did not expect to see that much over the course of months leading up to the [...]

    Almost There… Part II

    I was watching a lot of old Twilight Zone episodes when I got the idea for this story, so I’m hoping it has that type of feel. Once the overall story is done, I will rewrite and polish it, flesh it out a little more, but for now it’s just a rough, as-it-is draft.

    Almost There (Fiction)

    Sometimes life grabs you by the hair and yanks you around a little bit. When that happens, you tend to forget there are safe places you can hide from the stress and pain of it all.

    Commitment Report 2010: Vol-IV

    Well, I did it. After a rocky start, which prompted the deletion of about 700 words, I managed to repair one of the stalled parts in Running Down the Moon and add 1600 new words to my word count. I am now standing about 51% completion, as you can see from the fancy pants word [...]

    Guys, I have to tell you that getting back into Running Down the Moon has been really hard. In fact, I remembered as I sat down to write last night why it was so easy to walk away from the story when holiday travel mayhem set in back in November. I hit a bit of [...]

    Commitment Report 2010: Vol-II

    In truth, there is nothing more motivational than rejection. Sure, many of us sink into defeat, maybe throw a fit or two and possibly even refuse to submit our work ever again just to avoid ever feeling like a failure again. I’ve blogged about rejection a lot over the last year and a half because [...]

    Sweet Sixteen: A Short Freewrite

    I tried to take a nap earlier, but frazzled by the notion that I had to go to the school and pick up the Squeenager, I never quite made it to dreamland. Instead, while Billy Idol sang me to sleep, I thought about a novel I once wrote and started brainstorming a short story to [...]

    Commitment Report Vol XXII

    It’s been awhile since I penned a commitment report, but that’s not to say there’s nothing going [...]

    Commitment Report Vol XXI

    It’s been a week since my last commitment report, and while not much has taken place on the fiction front, I have been working really hard to expand my freelance career. [...]
