Sometimes I feel more like a juggler than a writer. I timed the completion of Lucy Harker perfectly to give me two days off before diving into the copy edits of Chaos Hunt. I spent those two days taking some deep breaths and setting up everything that happens next. If you’re not familiar with how […]

I typed “The End” on Lucy Harker, Vampire Hunter earlier this week. It’s a milestone that I’ve passed, but there are a lot of miles ahead still. But then I looked back and realized there are many miles behind. Out of idle curiosity, I did a search for files on my computer that mentioned Lucy

Normally I do a post about what my goals were for this year, based on something I posted at the beginning. Apparently at the beginning of the year, I was so busy with the edits for Chaos Wolf that I didn’t write one. Oops. So I decided that I’d go over all the accomplishments I
November was a crazy, successful month. I ended up writing a total of 50,456 words total on Chaos Hunt. About 40,000 of them are actually reusable due to rewrites on the fly. My policy is if I wrote it, it counts, even if I had to go back and rewrite from another point of view.
Quick Note: Chaos Wolf is on sale for $2.99 through November 30th as part of Book Nook Nuts Thankful 4 Book Boyfriends Book Fest! This is the last week of NaNoWriMo. I’m still on pace, although the novel is no where near done. But with any luck, I will have the first 50,000 words of Chaos Hunt done

I think I’ve figured out the problem I’ve been having with my latest book and has been draining away my productivity. I’m working on the sequel to Chaos Wolf, currently titled Chaos Kin. Now that Jordan has survived becoming a werewolf, she now has to learn to live as one. I’m building out the plot

… and I’m starting to run. Figuratively speaking of course. A lot of August was spent recovering from the personal issues of May/June/July. Things have finally settled in my personal life and I can look at the future without panicking. With the end of Worldcon, it’s the end of con season for me. I will
