Happy Cyber Monday! For those of you who, like me, celebrate Christmas, the season is officially underway. I’m spending a good part of my day on pretty mundane things. You know, writing out Christmas cards, decorating my house. Oh, and launching my third book, Seeming. I’ll be active on Facebook and Twitter all day, ifContinue reading

Writing, Like Yoga, Is A Practice
I’ve been going to yoga once a week for the last few months. I’ve always done yoga, since I was thirteen, actually. I enjoy it, it’s peaceful and it keeps my chronic back issues in check. But for the first time in my life, I have a class that I can go to. I’ve reallyContinue reading “Writing, Like Yoga, Is A Practice”
Red Lipstick
Hey, guys, just a quick announcement before we get to the story today. This will be the last scheduled short story for now. I’ve got a ton of huge projects and I find that I have less and less time to commit to short and flash fiction. Honestly, I’d rather give you something awesome onceContinue reading “Red Lipstick”
Geeks and Girls
Full disclosure, I haven’t seen the new Ghostbusters movie yet. I’m not going to judge it based on other people’s opinions, but I’ve been hearing some pretty disturbing things. Not about the movie, but about people’s reactions to the movie. It seems like anyone who has anything bad to say about it is being labeledContinue reading “Geeks and Girls”
My Hat Trick
I guess it’s really no surprise to any of you that I’m kind of obsessed with Hockey recently. Oh well, it could be worse. I could be a drug addict. One thing I haven’t seen yet is a hat trick. I just love the thought, one player getting three scores in the same game. Then,Continue reading “My Hat Trick”
Pre Nano Pep Talk
I’m wrist deep in NanoEdmo right now, so I didn’t have time to write a short story this week. I have a great idea, a really creepy tale, but I want to do it right. Right means not rushed. So instead of a story this week, I want to say something to all of youContinue reading “Pre Nano Pep Talk”
Defending Sequels
Being the big nerd that I am, I’m already seeking out lists of movies that are coming out in 2017. And there are a lot of movies coming out in 2017 that I can’t wait to see. But I’ve noticed something that I guess should trouble me, but it really doesn’t. Looking through the moviesContinue reading “Defending Sequels”
Tell Me What You Don’t Like about Yourself
Did you ever see the show Nip Tuck? I never watched it, but I used to see commercials for it during Charmed, because they had an actor in common. Overall, it didn’t strike me as a worthwhile use of my time. It still doesn’t. I really hated how the main character would ask women, atContinue reading “Tell Me What You Don’t Like about Yourself”
The State Vs. Abigail
Abigail looked defiant, sitting behind the defendant’s table. Even in prison orange, she looked haughty. I couldn’t understand how she could look so sure of herself. She was a big woman. Not fat, just broad and tall. Her hair was thick, hanging like a heavy curtain around her face. She wasn’t doing herself any favorsContinue reading “The State Vs. Abigail”
Football and Heritage
If you’re a sports fan, this is your favorite time of year. Football is in full swing, and hockey is just starting up. As a Steelers and Penguins fan, I’m finding that my schedule is dictated by the game nights. This is a far cry from when I was a kid and couldn’t have caredContinue reading “Football and Heritage”
