Hi-ho, squiders, hope you’re doing well! I finally finished my readthrough today, and it has worked–I am ready and willing to dive into the madness that is revision (though I will admit, since I feel like the draft is in
Help, I’ve Been Asked to Talk to Children
Hidey-ho, squiders. Happy Thursday. I wrote 7K over the last week on side scenes (and also rewriting the climax, which still isn’t quite working, but it is better–but also I don’t tend to revise out of order and probably when
Weigh Anchor
Hello, squiders! Well, I’ve made it through the draft (again). I have made my maps, and they might actually be good. Well, they’ll at least be useful. (I do need to at least clean up the upper hold on the
Pondering Accomplished
Good evening, squiders! How are you doing? I’m a little overwhelmed around normal everyday things and this leadership course I’m staffing at the end of the month, and the consignment sale. (I think I’ve talked about both of those before.
Moving On (And a Finished Draft)
Apologies, squiders. I started this hours ago but then got distracted by Ghost Hunters. Man, I love ghost hunting shows even though I don’t actually believe in ghosts. Oh well. So, as promised (or at least hoped for), I finished

Moving Forward
Hi, squiders! Sorry about missing Tuesday. It’s been kind of a rough week, but I don’t really have an excuse. But anyway, we’re in to March! Crazy, right? I know everyone’s focused on how it’s been a year since the
I Realized Something Today
Good news, squiders. I’m making some progress on World’s Edge, the story I worked on for Nano this year. Over the past two days, I’ve written 2.5K, which is approximately 17% of my 15,000 word goal for December. But all
Meet the Crew of the Hope’s Redemption
I made a huge mistake, squiders. I was like, oh, well, we’ve talked about the ship, and we’ve talked about the world, so maybe we should talk about the characters! And I should find pictures of the characters, so everyone
