The “Next Big Thing” Blog Hop
So I've been tagged in the Next Big Thing blog hop that's been going around, by the marvelous Catherine Lundoff - who you should really be paying attention to. I just finished her novel Silver Moon and enjoyed it hugely (menopausal werewolves; you can't imagine what a breath of fresh air that is). So here's me.... Continue Reading →
WIP Wednesday: Yet more Harbinger
Yeah, more. It's pretty much my primary project at the moment and will likely remain so until it's finished, especially given that I'm in the final push of it. But given that, I want to take a second before I shove more of it at you to talk about what's actually going on in it.... Continue Reading →
WIP Wednesday: More untitled dystopian cyborg angel novel
I've been working on this one for a while now -- a few months -- and it's in that awfulGod will I never be able to stop working on this stage of it, but I'm plugging away, I'm about two-thirds done, and I do at least have a pretty good idea of where it's going.... Continue Reading →
WIP Wednesday: “Iron Ladies, Iron Tigers”
So having abandoned the audio posts for now, I'm looking to jump back into the swing of things with actually writing, and to that end I've decided to pick up the Muse Monday/WIP Wednesday posts again. Because I think the template works well, on the whole, when I can bludgeon myself into keeping up with... Continue Reading →
WIP Wednesday: Untitled Dystopian Queer Angel(?) Novel
I've censored the following, in protest of a bill that gives any corporation and the US government the power to censor the internet--a bill that could pass THIS WEEK. To see the uncensored text, and to stop internet censorship, visit: http://americancensorship.org/posts/14157/uncensor I'm █████ to ████ █████ the ████ █████ I'm ███████ on. I ████, it...

WIP Wednesday: More Mars novel-in-progress-and-almost-done-thank-God
I keep saying how I'm into the home stretch on this novel. The thing about home stretches: they stretch. A lot. The last book I did, the one I co-wrote? I think I was "almost done" with that thing for like three goddamn months. I don't think that's going to happen here, but man does... Continue Reading →
WIP Wednesday: The Scarred Utopian Takes a Wife
This wasn't actually a WIP until yesterday afternoon, when the idea for it popped into my head very suddenly while I was writing something else with a friend - which at least partially inspired it. The rest of it came very quickly after, and now it's the rare short story of mine where the actual... Continue Reading →
WIP Wednesday: The Horse Latitudes
The excerpt for this edition of WIP Wednesday is the story I talked about back on Monday--the one that, at times, practically edges into prose-poetry. It's a story that I've been waiting to write for a year, and it's huge and thematically sprawling and will probably need a lot of tightening in the editing phase.... Continue Reading →
WIP Wednesday: SF novel, “Hadeva”
So this is the second of my new twice-weekly posting schedule. This is the fun WIP part. On Monday I posted a fairly whiny piece on writing novel drafts and why they suck and I hate them a lot--the reason for this being that I'm currently in the sticky, gooey middle of the first...
