Rewiring
Well, it’s that time of year: to look back, to ahead, for resolutions and revaluations. 2010 sucked for me. Family illness, death in the family, recurring health problems. Little traction on the writing front. So, time to make some hard decisions. Neither Here nor There… is getting shelved until I find the proper market […]

Current Affairs
Not much to report. Putting the final touches to the first draft of my WIP. I can already smell the re-write, but that will have to wait until January at the very least. A warm congratulations to all the NaNo winners out there. You deserve it. Playing WoW right now (World of Warcraft). The folks […]
