As a writer, one of the biggest lessons I learned in 2021 was the importance of taking breaks. For the past 6 or 7 years, I really hadn’t taken any breaks from writing. It was one short story to the next. One novel to the next. I’d alternate between revising and drafting, but I’d doContinue reading “A Lesson from 2021: Take a Break”

2021 Publication Recap
I think it’s a little too late now for an awards eligibility post, but I’ll still do a quick recap of my publications from 2021. It’s a pretty short list compared to when I used to write more short stories. I had two novelette’s published in an anthology called Distant Gardens. The first story isContinue reading “2021 Publication Recap”

The Long Road to Power Inversion’s Publication
Once upon a time, I posted on this site at least once or twice a month, whether it was a book review, craft post, recipe, or something about teaching.

The most exciting of all the thingsContinue reading “The Long Road to Power Inversion’s Publication”

Book Review: Elysium Girls
If you like weird west stories and chosen one narratives, then read Elysium Girls. The setting and the world are something of a twist on classic western with a vibe that isn’t quite steampunk but something similar. There is even a magic showdown.

2019 Publications Round-Up
I’m sorry for my silence this fall. It’s been busy with a full course load, conventions, edits, and writing. Actually, this whole year has been super busy, and my list of publications is so much smaller than last years. My first publication of 2019 was a poem called “Is Listening Visiting.” It was published inContinue reading “2019 Publications Round-Up”
Book Review: The Time Trap
The middle grade reading spree continues with a digital ARC of The Time Trap that I got from NetGalley. The Time Trap did have a good message for kids whose parents are going through a divorce, but it all seemed very cliche. Telling kids that acting out won’t make their parents get back together, andContinue reading “Book Review: The Time Trap”
