I Don’t NaNoWriMo, But I Do Self-Publish
I’m definitely an agnostic on National Novel-Writing Month. I’m not down on it, and if someone wants to take the moment as a inspiration to create, I’m the last guy to wrinkle my nose at such. Write, you guys. Write like the wind. But I also don’t participate. I’ve got a few reasons for this:… Read More I Don’t NaNoWriMo, But I Do Self-Publish
Poetry Imminent. Stir to be Released on Amazon.
I’ve made a decision to cut the cord on my ongoing poetry anthology, Stir, and release it for Kindle and paperback. I’m going to finalize selections and upload in fairly rapid order. I’m doing this in large part because I’ve decided I’m no worse at poetry than some of the things I’ve seen in lit… Read More Poetry Imminent. Stir to be Released on Amazon.

Another Creation in Embryo…
Why I might: On the DL, I’ve been sketching pieces of verse. I’ve got notebooks full of them. I’ve even laid them out in Scrivener. In the last year I’ve done maybe ten or twelve. There’s enough for a short paperback volume, anyway. They’re always saying, get the content out. It would be nice if… Read More Another Creation in Embryo…

I explain that the book… Read More Everything is Back on Track!
That’s Three Novellas Done, Gang.
I just put the most satisfying words – THE END – an author ever composes onto Void. The last three chapters will be available in their entirety in the next issue of Unnamed Journal. Which means I’ve finished almost a week ahead of my June 1st deadline. Which means I’ve hit all my deadlines this year –… Read More That’s Three Novellas Done, Gang.
Void 7 in the Bag, Baby…
Climax done. Now for denouement. I’m toying with making rumors of a characters demise greatly exaggerated. I don’t know if I like the character or just didn’t like the death I had planned. It’s all in the soup, folks.
Unnamed Journal 7 – Available for Free on Joomag.
Edit: Link was displaying messy code. Fixed now. Unnamed Journal, a magazine I have been known to write for, is now in its second year. It’s been available in print from POD houses, Blurb and Lulu, and in digital form on Amazon. For the new year, they’ve switched gears, going to online magazine publisher Joomag.… Read More Unnamed Journal 7 – Available for Free on Joomag.
A Message I Think Many of Us Self-Published Could Use.
At the end of a re-posted Sarah Hoyt Human Wave “manifesto” You shall not spend your life explaining why your not-boring is better than your fellow writers not-boring. Instead you will shut up and write. There is nothing lamer, sadder, and more pathetic that author-on-author hate. Does anyone imagine that J.K. Rowling gives one… Read More A Message I Think Many of Us Self-Published Could Use.
