Retreat on the weekend


Only a few more days to go–six of us going to Banff to lock ourselves into a condo for 3 days of uninterrupted writing! It will be great! Can’t wait to get back to the novel!

Submitted “Thieves”


…to the Amazon.com novel contest. They say they take science fiction and fantasy, but I am not holding my breath about an SFF book winning. However, I’d like to at least make the first cut. They cut 5000 manuscripts down to 1000 by the end of February, based on the 300 word blurb. This will give me some feedback on my blurb-writing!

Invited to guest blog!


So about a week ago I did a guest blog on Inkpunks.com on mechanical vs. inspirational writing. Yesterday I was asked to do a guest blog on “Breaking into pro short fiction markets.” I’m not sure when I will be doing it — June, I believe, but I’ll keep you updated!
