  1. For the month of April I wrote a total of 12419 words of 48438 total words on the year so far, plus spent 2 hours 45 minutes revising/editing. On my blog I posted a page listing publications of mine in April, and updated the now page.

  2. I got the acknowledgements, author's note, and dedication for Rugosa out to the publisher last night. Expressing gratitude in public is surprisingly complicated. Patreon blog post for subscribers:

  3. Many towns in Sussex, South England felt abandoned, as Mrs. Cleyton had skipped them on her yearly visitations. But 2026 is promising to be different...

  4. In Child of the Moon, my readers descended down into a fearful hamlet in 1924 Scotland.

    In 2016, I will send them down into the mind of a grieving widow who has lost her children.

    Mrs. Cleyton – An absolutely terrifying suspense about the insanity of grief.

  5. I've seen the draft of my book cover design, requested a couple of changes, and should have a completed cover by the end of the week. Woohoo! Excitement mounts. . .

  6. Is there something like Royal Road but which specifically does NOT sell through Amazon? I want the opposite of a publishing house propped up by crumbs from the ultrarich.

  7. Non-binding poll time:

    Should I make an audio version of my story, Imperfect Cadence?

    Visually impaired folks get double votes for obvious reasons.

    (Boosts ok)

  8. Me: writes article making unconventional point

    Reviewer: it seems like you're making a point no one else is making and this is good because it is an important point. Please cite other people making the point so that we can proceed

  14. It's a lousy screengrab, but my girl is before the public. Flicka's LOVERS went up for pre-sale on Amazon for Valentine's Day. Flicka and I have come a long way together. I love all of my characters in this novel! Funny! In the last book I wrote, I loathed some of my characters. #Bookstodon #Books #Bookstagram #book #Romance #erotic #love #WritersOfMastodon #Writers #writer #writing #WritingCommunity #Words #word #ampublishing #AmWriting #fiction #author #AuthorLife #pennedpossibilities #

  15. If you enjoyed "Imperfect Cadence", or maybe if you had trouble getting into it due to a less-than-encyclopedic knowledge of Greek myth, I made an annotated version.

    This was a lot of fun and I may do it with other stories in the future, but this one REALLY needs it.

    As with the other, the story is free to read! No upsell here. Do something nice for someone else.

  16. How do you like to prepare/choose to consume stories?

    Boosts desired!

  17. (If you hate self-publicity, mute my #FineFiction tag.)

    Do you like free stories?

    Do you like obscure Greek myth and cranky old music-lovers and mysteries?

    Then I have a story for you! "Imperfect Cadence" is now available--for free--on my website. Enjoy! And if you like it, let someone else know?

  18. Looking for cover artist referrals (boosts welcome). Pay is $600 USD for a novel cover.

    What I want:
    Mr. Maybe and Dr. Don't is a non-traditional MG fantasy, with swords and magic and unusual woodland magical critters that need some art design. Whimsical without being farcical.

    (In an ideal world the artist would also contribute some interior art, e.g. b/w frontispiece and/or chapter images. Price negotiable for that.) #amPublishing #WritersCoffeeClub #writing #artist

  19. If you were going to make a book available as an electronic text file to people, what formats would you include to ensure people could access it comfortably on whatever device they wanted to read it on? HTML seems an obvious choice. What else? Word? ePub? Kindle? PDF? Not those? Others?
