Well, Squiders, I did a whole bunch of marketing research before Shards was released. And some of the research I did told me that I should set up a reader and subscribe to RSS feeds that I could then use
Getting Left Brain All Over My Right-Brained Activities
Have they disproved the whole right brain/left brain thing? I think they probably have but ANYWAY. And I apologize again for the spate of writing-related posts lately. I’d like to do more reading/genre/media ones, but it turns out that, while
Writing Process Blog Hop
I like you people. Sometimes you make blogging really easy. (Which is sometimes necessary, because you occasionally have days where you’re crockpotting dinner and it’s been in there for two hours before you realize you never turned the crockpot on.)

I have this problem, Squiders, where I start new books when I am in the middle of other books. Normally it’s not that big of a deal. It’s usually only two books at a time–one on my nightstand for pre-bedtime
When Books Hook You (and Blog Topic Generator Hilarity)
Today has been one of those days, Squiders, where trying to get anything done has been a huge drag and everything seems too hard. This, sadly, includes blogging. And so I took to the interwebs in search of inspiration (and
Fanfiction Ponderings
