Well, squiders. We were supposed to be on a cruise tomorrow. But, alas, that’s not happening, for obvious reasons. Sad times. So, a little over a month and a half ago, I went to another library book sale. Cuz I
How to Celebrate a 10th Anniversary of a Book?
It’s crazy, squiders. My first book, Hidden Worlds, is 10 years old. (The first edition came out Dec 2009, and the revised second edition, published through Turtleduck Press, came out in late 2010, complete with change in pen name and
WriYe and the Love of Writing
Ugh, squiders, nothing is getting done around here. I mean, I suspected my productivity would drop off precipitously while I’m caregiving for my spouse, but when you add on that yesterday was a virtual day, it has meant that I

The Internet Marches Ever Onward
I’m putting together a cosplay, squiders. It’s been a while. The last time I cosplayed was when I dressed up as Amy Pond from Doctor Who for Denver Comic-con back in 2014. That was just a closet cosplay (meaning I
Hooray for Flash Fiction
In the interests of full disclosure, this post was supposed to go up yesterday. However, we lost power for several hours and nothing was charged, so you get it today instead! (Sorry.) Hi, guys! It’s the end of July (now
Foundational Books: Winnie the Pooh
