In the Trough again 09/14/2018 There has been a lot going on this year. A moderate chunk of which I have had very little control. The downside of this is that way too little writing has occurred. Or maybe more precisely way too few things have reached the completion stage. Yes, I have multiple stories in progress per usual, all unfinished. If you subscribe to my newsletter you are getting a new episode of "Wishing on the Moon" this month. One of the few things that did actually get finished. I'm still hacking away at most

My High Tech Rare Disease Complicated Life 08/12/2018 I don't usually dump much information here about my weird & complicated medical problems, but I'm about to go through a fairly significant medical event and it will likely show up in some future book. I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome: the hypermobility version. Yeah that comes off sounding like plot of a documentary. Short version =my collagen is defective, which means my ligaments and tendon tend to tear like wet tissue paper, my joints slide around and sometimes dislocate and I have an almighty

Nearly Done Summer Hell 07/26/2018 I have less than a week until I have give (& grade) final exams. Yay! Okay, not so yay about the grading part, but the fact that the end is in sight. I have done so little writing this summer, which is just pathetic. Hours and hours of every week has been spent at work- the day job/ the night job / the slog through paperwork and labs and all of it. I have actually finished the rough draft for the next episode of "Inches of Trust" though. It's now in the hands of my blurb writer and my editor, so

Exclusive content for Newsletter subscribers 07/04/2018 I do actually have a Patreon account....but with an erratic schedule and uncertainty about my ability to produce items to post to that on anything approaching a regular interval - I'm opting for trying a different tact. Serial fiction is a passion of mine. My brain has a high tendency to think in discrete chunks along a continuum. I'd love to have a huge chunk of money and have the ability to film webisodes of something I wrote. No such luck. Maybe I'll win the lottery some day. In the

My summer -NOT- vacation 06/17/2018 Since my vacations are almost always in May, June has arrived and the summer semester is in full swing at the morning/afternoon/night job. Yeah. That. I'm covering some classes for a colleague who's out. This means I have classes that meet as early as 10am and run as late as 10 pm on alternating days. I'm stuck in a never ending swing shift hell. And the rest of my life hasn't quit either. I am making a little progress writing. There's a new episode of Inches of Trust out with JMS Books

The Research Trip 05/26/2018 I am still jet lagged..........I spent a week in Paris and a week in London. London is a place I've been a number of times before and there is a certain level of comfortable familiarity with things I'm able to do there and things I can buy there that are nigh impossible to get in the U.S. Paris was new, new to me anyway. Me and the fam spent our fare share of being lost and doing purely touristy things like the Eiffel Tower. Per usual we also spent time acting like we lived there, with the
