I woke up at around five-ish this morning knowing the next chapter of The Wishbone Conspiracy, my next Cady Drake novel. And thought about it for a while, and decided that I would write it once I got up and got showered. And am sitting down to do that. But on my way to getting there, I just found ANOTHER … Continue reading →
More holiday fiction, including an upcoming story by me… Katharina Gerlach, one of my HollysWritingClasses.com site moderators, a marvelous (and bilingual) writer, and a fine editor, requested stories for her annual Advent Calendar. And got a great turn-out, some excellent stories, and a project she put together to share a bunch of writers’ fiction with new readers. And I forgot … Continue reading →

ALL my Patreon patrons this month get the first SEVEN chapters of the first draft of Dreaming … Continue reading →
So… here it is Friday morning, July 6, and I have been working steadily for six hours a day on the bug-hunts for Vipers’ Nest every day but Monday… Granted, as I’m getting into the bug hunts from my later folks, I’m getting a lot of repeat finds. But I have not had one bug hunter who hasn’t found at … Continue reading →

I’m new to Patreon. I probably made an error setting up my rewards for the day after Patreon said it collected pledges, which is on the first of each month. It’s now the fourth of the month, and as far as I can tell, Patreon has not collected a single pledge from a single one of my patrons, and all … Continue reading →
