I’ve been a bit remiss in updating, and I must be fast this morning. Last week I wrote just 1,600 words, and did some plotting work for both the remaining chapters of Chaos Calling and the fairytale world I’m working on. I also continued revisions on Descent, the next book I’ll release. While last week’s […]

Sunday Update: Squashing My Goals, at Least for This Week
My goal for the summer isn’t very high, because I’ve been feeling more burned out than I like. Being an indie author is a marathon and not a sprint, and I need to live that philosophy, not just talk it. So, I have a goal of 2,000 words of new fiction each week. That assumes […]
