In the Trenches
#amwriting #revision
Happy Friday, squiders. How’s May treating you? I’m slowly going out of my mind. Reception for Deep and Blue has been pretty decent. On a sadder note, Turtleduck Press, which I’ve been a part of for many, many years (we went live at the end of 2010–Hidden Worlds was one of the launch titles–but we’d worked behind the scenes for at least a year leading up to that) has decided to close its doors.…

Thanksgiving Landsquid! (+ WriYe and Fellow Writers)
#
Happy Thanksgiving to my American squiders! I drew you a Landsquid in celebration. I haven’t gotten to do much drawing lately and this blog has been decidedly low on Landsquid. I hope everyone has a lovely holiday without too much family drama and with plenty of mashed potatoes, which are, of course, the best of all Thanksgiving food. Anyway, the WriYe blog prompt for November is: Shout out…

Chapter One Complete (and Plans for Camp)
#amwriting
Well, squiders, I thought it couldn’t be done. Well, no, I didn’t, but it was starting to feel that way. I finally got done with the re-write on Chapter 1. It’s a little over 3000 words (which is about average for me for chapter length, but is, I suspect, considerably shorter than it was before) and probably terrible. At least, it felt terrible. It may not be. I’m going to go through and see if…

Whoops, Change of Plans
#amwriting
So, squiders, change of plans. I’ve got to put my revision for Book 1 on hold and switch over to my revision for my Gothic Horror novella, which is now due to Turtleduck Press at the beginning of June. Not going to lie, this is a bit frustrating, since I was finally getting somewhere on my revision, but I understand the change and I’m really the only person who can step into this spot. So, uh,…

Help Me Pick a Cover!
Help Me Pick a Cover! #amwriting
Hello again, squiders! Every so often, over at Turtleduck Press, we pull off the older free short stories, and then I gather mine up and release them in a short story collection. The first one, The Short of It, came out in 2017 and included stories from the start of TDP until 2014 (as well as a new story), and the one I’m working on right now will include stories from 2015 and 2016 (and a new…

MileHiCon Recap
MileHiCon Recap #amwriting
Well, Squiders, MileHiCon has come and gone. I manned a table in the Authors’ Row for Turtleduck Press to mixed results, but the con is always a good way to meet other local authors and talk shop. (I said hi to Connie Willis and she said hi back! Of course, I didn’t know it was her when I said it, because I didn’t know she was at the con as she was not advertised. I’ve been quietly geeking out to…

Reminder to BACK YOUR STUFF UP!
Reminder to BACK YOUR STUFF UP!
Don’t worry, Squiders, nothing got me. Well, nothing got my stuff.
(I do, however, have an issue where, if I forget to uncheck the graphics driver update before my computer runs the updates, the new driver eats my display set-up. I have a lovely dual display which I HIGHLY recommend to everyone, because it’s excellent for editing, writing (and checking research at the same time), doing two things…
