Fantasy and horror books and blogposts
It's the end of another year, which is kind of baffling! This year has gone by super quickly. Let's take a look at what I've accomplished this year, for my own sanity! In January-ish I made a post detailing my goals for 2022. The TL;DR of that post is: Finish a draft of Alabaster Futurescapes... Continue Reading →
It's fall, soon to be winter, and here in Southwest Virginia everything is dying back. Yet I've planted some new seeds in anticipation of spring and National Poetry Month, thanks to the generous funding of the City of Roanoke and the National Endowment of the Arts. In April of 2023, I will be coordinating a... Continue Reading →
Hey, folks! We've got a more normal-sized Reading Round-up this week, and not all of the books are horror! Congratulations! To be honest I've been a little off my feed as it were, since I've been very caught up with querying and some of the fun projects, but I enjoyed everything on this list and... Continue Reading →

Our next post will be all Halloween themed, so if you're looking for spooky reads I promise you, I'm reading them. This post, however, is predominantly urban fantasy and science fiction. A Prayer...

When people talk about going to Italy, they travel for the art, the history, the landscapes and the pasta. And yet, what I most want to talk about is the lemons. After leaving Pompeii, we headed to Minori, a small town on the Amalfi Coast. The Amalfi Coast is the kind of place you film... Continue Reading →
Witness me trying to catch up on my Reading Round-ups with this really long Round-up of all things June and July. I've organized it by genre so that you can just skip to your favorites there. If you can't find something you enjoy on this list, I cannot help you. I read far too many... Continue Reading →
