Winter update

This year, I’m spending Christmas with my family in Iowa. Even though I don’t leave until Thursday, I mentally checked out on Monday morning. Haven’t gotten hardly any writing or publishing work done since. Have I blogged about my thoughts on Christmas before? Looks like I haven’t. There’s a lot of things that I really love… Continue reading Winter update

Oh hey! Happy Thanksgiving!

Funny how holidays creep up on you when you’re in a foreign country. We have Friday off here in Georgia, due to an Orthodox religious holiday.  I’ll probably head east and check out the Stalin museum, maybe Mtskheta and Qazbegi depending on the weather.  A friend of mine in Tbilisi said she’d get me a… Continue reading Oh hey!

The Obligatory Christmas Post

Just a quick post, because I figure I shouldn’t let Christmas go by this year without at least mentioning it in some way.

Genesis Earth 3.0 is almost finished!

Yeah!  Only five more scenes to go! I love revising.  Every time I finish a scene, or a chapter, or a draft, I look back and think “man, this is so much better than it used to be!” Later, maybe, I look at it and say “okay, it still needs work,” but to know that… Continue reading Genesis Earth 3.0 is almost finished!
