Two new stories up

Friday, May 18th, 2012

Webzines come and go, and stories published in them can be victims of domain expirations, site collapses, and so on. I’ve rescued two of my old published stories, and I am putting them online for your enjoyment. The first is “The Unrevealed Tort, Revealed“. This story appears to be about two men, one of whom [...]

The people have spoken

Wednesday, May 9th, 2012

Yesterday I posted to here, to LiveJournal, to Facebook, Google Plus, and to Twitter the question, “What should I write next?”, and I offered three choices: Code Monkey! Wherein a computer programmer embarks on strange and exciting adventures when he finally gets up the nerve to ask the pretty receptionist out on a date; Padma Wherein a [...]

Dilemma

Tuesday, May 8th, 2012

I find myself stuck between writing projects. I’m progressing just fine on my short story “The X of Doom” — it’s got pirates in it! — but I’m having a hard time deciding what my next novel project should be. Here are my options, and I’m leaving it up to you, my faithful readers, to [...]

A Wee Writing Update

Thursday, February 2nd, 2012

Apparently if you’re a knitter, like my wife, then the thing to say when you’re describing current projects is to say you’ve got them “on the needles”. When I ask my wife what knitting projects she’s working on, she’ll say, for example, “Oh, I’ve got a pair of socks and an afghan on the needles [...]

Two Things…

Monday, October 31st, 2011

First of all, I want to let you all know that my short story, “Trying to Stay Dead”, is now live on Psuedopod. You should check it out here. Enjoy! Second, it’s that time of year again: National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), when tens of thousands of people around the world spend the month frantically [...]

Ways to Spend Money

Friday, October 15th, 2010

I’m hoping that soon I will be able to present blog material that isn’t just self promotion… Unfortunately, for the time being, I seem to be utterly uninspired to blog. So for now, in lieu of actual content, I present three ways that you can spend money. And, of course, they all have to do [...]

Just for fun

Wednesday, September 15th, 2010

Just for fun, I’ve uploaded a PDF of the entire text of my 2008 NaNoWriMo novel, Iron Horse Apocalypse. No giant squid, but there’s Cthulhu. To download it, click on the picture of the train: High level critiques are welcome! It may be full of anachronisms and cliches (not to mention a contradiction or two), [...]

Passing around the hat

Monday, August 16th, 2010

EPIC FANTASY! WITH COWBOYS! I’m not entirely sure what I’ll be writing for National Novel Writing Month this year. I have an idea that I want to write an epic fantasy (with cowboys) this year, which is very different from the sort of thing that I usually write. Last year I wrote Code Monkey: A [...]
