Author of spooky, fantastical and swoony fiction and blogger of high strangeness.
Image by Gerd Altmann from Pixabay Happy first Monday of the New Year, friends! I wrote another version of this post last week. I deleted it because I was in an introspective and melancholy mood that day, and it showed. And also because I went into WAY too much detail recapping 2021, after which it […]
Read More »In lieu of traditional resolutions this year, I’ve decided to put together a list of 101 things to accomplish in 1001 days. This is not an official 101 in 1001, partly because I’m not strictly adhering to the official rules, and partly because I don’t plan to track them publicly through the community website (although […]
Read More »So, 2013 kinda blew, and I can’t say I’m sad to see it in my rear-view mirror. I spent a lot of time doing the things I thought I was “supposed” to do–looking for a “real” job, doing low-paying and unsatisfying work to keep the lights on, marketing the heck out of a web design […]

Read More »Wow, y’all. Work has been busy. I didn’t blog last week because there just wasn’t time. This is excellent news for our ability to pay our bills, although this pace is already threatening to burn me out. I haven’t been able to touch my novel, either, and any time off I’ve managed to grab has […]
Read More »Well, despite being crazy-busy all week, I didn’t finish anything, but that’s mostly because of waiting for other people to get back to me before I can continue. I did come within only $40 of my weekly quota, which I don’t believe will be too hard to make up. The main thing is that I’m […]
Read More »[Cross-posted] I didn’t even have time for a goal update this week, and by the weekend I was too brain-fried to bother. The good news is that for the first time ever last week I earned too much to qualify for an unemployment check — which is really excellent timing, since my unemployment year expires […]
