    Why I shut down my Patreon fundraiser

    I’d intended to send a Questions & Answers email to my How to Write a Novel launch list, but that’s going to have to wait.Instead, I did THIS. Closed my “Move out of Florida while writing fiction” fundraiser. Here’s why — it’s this clause in the Patreon Legal Agreement https://www.patreon.com/legal By posting content to Patreon you grant us a…

  • I’ve UNPUBLISHED Hunting the Corrigan’s Blood, and Warpaint

    I’ve UNPUBLISHED Hunting the Corrigan’s Blood, and Warpaint

    This was a tough decision to make. I’ve pulled both Hunting the Corrigan’s Blood and Warpaint from circulation. They will be back… But not until I know I’m going to put them in front of the readers who will love them. I’m going to have to get (or make) new covers for both books, completely…

    Lost Words Found: I’m having a strange and disturbing morning…

    I think in general we as human beings like to think we’re on top of things. That we have a pretty good bead on not just where we are, but where we’ve been, and where we’re going. I’m working on Lesson 16 of How to Write a Novel this morning, which is about voice and…

  • Cadence Drake in Real Life: Now legal, soon possible. I win! 😀

    The main character of my current novel series, Cadence Drake, was a genetically engineered child. One mother, three fathers, and some slicing and dicing of her chromosomes to give her the exact characteristics her mother wanted for her: From my mother I have my coffee-with-a- touch-of-cream skin and full lips and straight teeth. From one…
