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!…

Octocon 2017!

October 9, 2017

Octocon was this past weekend, and a fine Octocon it was! I decided to do a dealer’s table at the last minute, and it went…well. I brought jam and books. About…70 jars of jam, and 30-40 books. In fact, I had to restock for the second day, because what I’d brought on day one had sold out to the tune of about 80%, which was sort of Beyond My Expectations. I don’t seem to have gotten a picture of the books on day one, but (first photo courtesy of, by…

Me: I will watch s5 Orphan Black when I have launched BEWITCHING BENEDICT Me: I will watch s5 Orphan Black when I’ve got REDEEMER sorted Me: I will watch s5 Orphan Black when I have this unexpected thing sent off Me: I will watch s5 Orphan Black when KISS OF ANGELS is written Dear Me: when the fuck am I really going to be allowed to watch s5 Orphan Black?
