So, I took a look at my google calendar today, and after one last thing sent to the Pale Puppy this evening, I am solicitude deadline free. My first thought was 'WWWOOOHAGA! I'm done with all my deadlines.'

My second thought was, 'oh fuck! I'm out of deadlines!"

So it's back to the grind for me, waiting for all calls, tossing out pitches and ( Read more... )

Hey, good times and good news. I got an email from pay pal this morning telling me I got some money, which is awesome. When I went through trying to figure out where the money was coming from, I quickly came to the realization that I was getting paid for my writing!

So, here you go, give this a read, and poke around the site. If you like it, and ( Read more... )

Am I advertising a contest for a writer who I've never read? You bet I am! Why? Free books, of course.

I'm excited to say White Wolf has released some new titles I can name. World of Darkness Immortals has been announced, I wrote for that!

I'll also be doing two (yeah, two!) short SASs that go along with an upcoming Hunter title, it is way awesome. Nothing more on that, yet.

My monster is alive over at Flames Rising. It's a fun little piece, and I'm excited to see it up. It was very wired to see my name next to Monty Cooke's on the Flame's Rising livejournal update. Does that give me geek cred? I hope so.

Most of the time I don't know where my inspiration comes from. Rarely, it comes from a movie, or a book or a ( Read more... )

So, I'm not one of those people who is capable of saying awesome things like 'I live my life without regret.' Or else 'I have no regrets.' Maybe it's my internal editor or possibly my vaguely nearly Catholic upbringing. However you want to look at it, sometimes I regret things that happen and on a good day, hope that I can learn from those regrets ( Read more... )

My laptop died, and that is not a thing of particular substance. I'll get a new one some day. (Or rather, a sort of new one. I like my computers like I like my men, with a couple of miles on it.) Someday I'll be making millions a dollar for every hundred words I put down, and at that time I'll have a laptop for every outfit. I'll have them in a ( Read more... )
