I've been really tied up with dayjob stuff recently, and I know that is hurting my ability to give you good blog content. Fear not! There are some interesting projects coming down the pike. For example, I'm working on putting together an IRL monthly reading group where we will read one book or novella a... Continue Reading →
Resolutions and execution
Friends, as of two weeks ago we were halfway through 2017 and I realized that it's probably about time to check on how I'm doing with my New Year's Resolutions. So here they are, and here's some reflection on how well I've met my goals. To make this marriage thing stick. To get the wedding... Continue Reading →
So, honeymoon! What did we do? Where did we go? What did we eat? All important questions, obviously. For this post I'll tell you some cool overview stuff and for later posts I'll come back and dig into some of the experiences I think will be useful from a world-building/fact-finding perspective, just because there was...

Paperback Publishing: KDP vs Createspace
Today I'm going to talk about my experiences publishing paperback books through KDP Select's new paperback platform, versus my experience with Createspace. First of all, let's talk about the platforms. For a long time, Createspace was the only game in town when it came to independent on-demand publishing. This made it possible for self-published authors... Continue Reading →
Pushing boundaries
Recently, a friend and I were discussing trends in storytelling. We were talking about how, for a while, zombies were the "it" thing to write or make shows and movies about. She argued that now, the "it" thing was exemplified by shows like Westworld. I'll admit that I haven't watched Westworld yet, but I'll take her... Continue Reading →
