Blimey! I just opened mine eyes, and lo! I have not updated this since you last visited... You would not believe how insane my life has become. Seriously! I am absolutely consumed with an awfully big adventure, being distracted by the shiny, the Doctor, and just generally being a pain to every man and his… Continue reading Sorry I’m Late!

Formatting 101
Formatting is very simple, but if you're not familiar with MS Word, I'd suggest "playing around" with all its functions or taking a class to learn it better before you begin hacking your or someone else's book to pieces. I've been working with word processing programs for the better part of 20 years and most… Continue reading Formatting 101
Back in the Swing of Things?
I can't remember the last time I sat down and worked--actually worked--on a story. Over July 4th weekend, I went down to Tucson for a "writing retreat" to visit Kitty, but did I get any writing done? Nope. Plotting, yes; writing, no. On the bright side, I did some research and figured out the plot… Continue reading Back in the Swing of Things?
Book Reviews 101
Let's talk about book reviews for a moment, shall we? Grab some coffee. This is a long lesson. You picked up a book, you read it, you loved or hated it, and now you'd like to write a review on it for whatever reason you may have. Maybe you enjoy writing book reviews. Perhaps you're good… Continue reading Book Reviews 101
Unca T’s Oklahoma Fried Green Tomatoes
Hey there, my darling minions! I've been so busy with my LAST CLASS, and copy edits for Shannon Mayer, and trying to promote, edit, and obtain books for Just Ink Press, as well as spending a crazy weekend sitting next to Michael Rooker, that I haven't had time to blog at all. I'm so ashamed...and… Continue reading Unca T’s Oklahoma Fried Green Tomatoes
Generally Speaking . . .
I'll be the first to admit that I'm a terrible blogger. I try to stick to a schedule, with each day of the week bringing something different, but I either run out of material or Life decides to dump everything on me at once, leaving me in a frenzy of putting out fires and cleaning… Continue reading Generally Speaking . . .
Reworking the Olde
One of the hardest things for an author to do is rework an old story, one that's been sitting on the shelf gathering dust for years. The reason this is difficult is because your writing has vastly improved over the years, and to go back and fix all of your mistakes takes not only an outsider's perspective on the story, which is difficult in itself, but also a sense of humility and courage. Even if you have an editor look at it, there's still so much wrong with it. So why bother? You bother with it because it's still a story you love, just as much as every one that flows from your fingertips, and you want to share that story.
On Hiatus…
Yeah, I know. I've basically vanished from cyberspace like Egypt during protests. I thought last semester was tough with all the reading and writing I had to do for two literature classes.
I’ve Got Your D & G Right Here, Bitches!
Hey there Sinners and Saints, I know it’s been a while since I last posted. Unfortunately, this is the by-product of me finishing my degree. When I have two or more classes, practically everything else gets pushed aside, even my writing. Starting February 4th, I’ll be taking three classes and may or may not vanish… Continue reading I’ve Got Your D & G Right Here, Bitches!
