Happy New Year! This is my first blog posting of 2019, so I’ll do my weekly goals recap, then follow that with the 2018 Annual Goals (and Excuses) Report, and then my goals for the new year (sorry if this makes today’s post a long, dry read, but it’s important to check where I was, … Continue reading

Writing Wednesday: Fear of PUBLIC Failure as a Tool
Last week’s goals: The usual 3 blog posts. Stories cycled to market as soon as markets were available. I finally made a little time to interact on other people’s blogs (yes, I can almost be social.) I’ve decided to do a collection for my November 30th release, comprised of nine of my ePublished stories plus … Continue reading
Writing Wednesday: Unplanned Surprises
Last week’s goals: 3 blog posts. Stories cycled to market as soon as markets were available (I only have four currently in rotation.) Commenting in other folks blogs just enough.

Writing Wednesday: Character Interviews Help Fill Gaps
Goals from last week: Still on schedule with three blog posts, and back-to-market rotations on returned stories. Only 518 words of fiction – the usual productivity shutdown that occurs with the holidays (coupled with the tedious nature of revising Swordsmaster) resulted in a very disappointing week of writing, despite putting time in on five separate … Continue reading
Writing Wednesday: The Short and the Longer of It
My weekly goals update: I made my three blog posts, 10-day turnaround to markets still on track, and ePublications for the year were on schedule (the preorder campaign for “Sleep with the Snowmen” ends on its release this Friday – time to plan next year’s first ePub.) I still have to do the final revision … Continue reading
