Author, Editor, Media Tie-In Writer

Adventure! – What happens when Seanan McGuire asks if you want to go on a “little adventure.” I give you: The Dollhouse. Too good not to share.

Announcement EGM on hiatus. It was a good run but life has a way of turning the corner for you. We don’t know when or how we’ll be back—yet—but we will be back.

Blog Live Your Art Daily. This is one of those blogs posts I think more authors junior in their careers should read.

Education Writing Speculative Fiction: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror: Teacher’s Edition. Some of my writing was used as an example in this textbook. I thought the homeschoolers out there might be interested.

Podcasts – I’ve been listening to a lot of serial fiction podcasts lately. Part research, part for the love of serial fiction, part because it’s something to listen do while I’m working on a mindless task. I’d like to recommend these podcasts: The Black Tapes, Alice Isn’t Dead, Slumberland, and Rabbits.

 

Pharaoh on an adventure!

My first anthology, Grants Pass, when I was nothing and no one. He wrote for me every single time I asked him to. For the Edge of Propinquity. For small press anthologies and large.
