I’m apparently really bad at this blogging thing since the date of my last post is eleven months ago.
So, quick recap:
- I never finished the second novel I was writing in the last post. I do plan to, even though it’s not my usual genre (it’s fantasy romance).
- I didn’t finish it because I got caught up typing up the second draft of the first novel (I handwrote the whole first draft because I’m crazy).
- I got another story accepted. This actually happened at the end of last year, though the anthology it is in does not come out until September 2025. The story if “I’m Not From Here” and will be in Whisper House Press’ Costs of Living anthology, which you can preorder from Amazon at the link or at the less distasteful bookstore of your choice. If you’re a writer, you can check our Whisper House here. I really enjoyed working with the editor and they have more horror anthologies forthcoming.
- While I am not currently finishing the fantasy romance (working title: The Bog Witch) I am currently working on another long piece and finishing up some shorter stories I have going on.
- Neil Gaiman turned out to be a creep. That was disappointing. I still own a bunch of his books, but I’m not sure I will ever be able to enjoy them again.
- In terms of writing, I am writing way more consistently this year. I am already way further on overall word count than I was at the same point in 2025, and I have already submitted more stories than I did for all of last year.
I think that about covers it, writing-wise. I am going to try to post more content here, even though I’m 90% sure no one reads it.
