  • Monday Meanderings

    It\’s Monday, and that means I have posts at the Writer\’s Retreat and Nightlight today!  What\’s up?

    In the spirit of taking photographs of what I see around me, I had fun with my phone\’s camera during a recent flight across country.  The interesting part?  The photos don\’t really resemble land; more like, meringue, clouds, and the ocean.  What do you think?  Up in the Air.

    I\’ve started basic belly dance lessons.  My instructor introduced me to Samia Gamal.  Come check her out!  Belly Dance.

  • Contests, and How They Help Your Writing – A Conversation with Kimberley Troutte

    My friend Kimberley Troutte is up for several awards – congratulations, Kimberley!  I got to thinking, why would an author want to work on contests?  Does it help their writing process?  I mean, obviously it\’s awesome to get the recognition, but how does it fit into all the other stuff that helps us write and publish and do all the stuff we\’re supposed to do?

    Then it hit me – ask someone who\’s done some contests!  Derp!

    And she didn\’t even laugh when I asked to interview her.  Real peach, this one is.  Just don\’t tell her I said that, or I might blush.

    Come on over to the Writer\’s Retreat with me and join me as I talk to Kimberley about all the stuff you\’ve ever wanted to know about contests, but were afraid to ask.

  • On Writing Blocks

  • New Blog Today, and a New Job!

    LGBT Fantasy Fans and Writers has launched.  From the \”About Us\” page: \”Welcome to our little corner of the ‘net. This is going to be a blog that appreciates LGBT fantasy in all its forms and incarnations- books, movies, games, art, whatever! Dark, light, urban, epic, romantic, sword and sorcery, classic… We love it all.\”

    Together with Alex Beecroft, Jennifer Thorne, Kay Barisford, Melanie Tushmore, and Violetta Vane, I\’ll be talking about one of my favorite subjects – the fantasy genre in all its wonderful variety, and specifically looking at the GLBT subset within it. We will offer flash fiction, essays, and excerpts from our own works. I hope you enjoy!

    My first entry is up today, \”Worldbuilding – M/M Style.\” I talk about some of the unique challenges presented to authors of M/M romance as they venture into creating worlds of their own.  Stop on by!

    Today is also my day at the Writer\’s Retreat Blog, where I talk about new beginnings.

    In addition, I start a new job today.  I\’m very excited.  Wish me luck!
