Revamping my Patreon!

January 15, 2018

One of my big projects for 2018 is Revamping My Patreon, which has now largely been accomplished. First off, of course, I’ve been running a Patreon a while now, and you’ll find short stories, book proposals, even whole novel drafts here, immediately available when you become a patron. But I’m offering lots of new fun stuff this year! I’ll be writing individual pieces of flash fiction, ranging from up to 250 words all the way to stories of 10K in length on commission, so you get what you ask for!…

a-gardening we go

January 12, 2018

I got this quite splendid little 2 story grow house from Ikea for Christmas, mostly because I have a handful of cute tiny little orange trees I started growing at the end of last summer and they were getting too cold and very sad and miserable and I wanted somewhere bright and cosy for them. Of course, part of the reason they were becoming sad is that they needed repotting, so this morning I very bravely repotted them. I’m not good at repotting things, so I’m very proud of myself.…

several 100 dayses

January 11, 2018

We’re up to day 8 of our #100DaysOfWriting. So far I’ve had a couple days where I’ve really ONLY done 100 words, but I haven’t missed one yet! I suspect I feel a sense of obligation due to having ended up sort of spearheading the 100 Days effort here, but that’s really good for me. It’s made me get things done on days I wouldn’t have otherwise (including today…). I’m also working–well. Sort of working toward. Several other 100 Days projects. 100 days of DuoLingo, just because I’m most of…

Marvel Movie Marathon: Captain America: The First Avenger

January 9, 2018

Someone on The Internets pointed out, late last year, that if a person was to watch a Marvel movie every week in the new year, they would wrap up just in time for Avengers: Infinity War, which is out (here, at least) on April 28th. Ted and I thought that was a great idea and set out to do so, with the thought in mind that we would watch them all chronologically, starting, clearly, with Captain America: The First Avenger. (Here’s a full chronological list of the Marvel Cinematic Universe,…

100 Days Of Writing: A Project

January 4, 2018

Late last year, near the end of Nanowrimo, a friend said she thought maybe she would do a 100 days of writing challenge instead of NNWM, because she thought that would work better for her. “Oh!” I said immediately, “I’ll do that with you!” “AUGH,” she said, “but, but, you’ll actually DO it!” We started yesterday. :) As a matter of fact, about…30 of us started, I’d say, between Facebook and Twitter. The minimum goal is 100 words of writing every day for 100 days. People can do more than…
