Oh my god, it’s the first update I’m making to this blog in 2024. I’ve been alive and it’s not like things aren’t happening, just…quietly. But it’s time to share some updates!

New story free to read online in Erozine Issue #7, upcoming poem
I fully intended to write this post on Friday when the story went live, but I was caught up in a few things…still aiming to finish several projects my COVID bout derailed, and the end-of-year-rush, and also my NaNo novel. Oh yeah, I kinda did NaNo this year. Only it lasted longer than the month […]

To make a long story short, I made a lovely 1,200-mile drive out to Maine to see a lovely person; someone else at the camp came down with COVID, then my lovely came down with COVID, I cut my trip short and made the 1,200-mile drive in reverse but it was not enough to avoid […]

Maybe it’s the heat (although here near the Great Lakes we’ve been much luckier than a lot of people temperature-wise). Maybe it’s the grief-iversary at the end of June. Or my birthday earlier […]

I’ve talked about it in my newsletter and on social media, but I’m not sure I’ve yet broken the news here on this blog that my longstanding interest in reading poetry has, over the past year or so, turned into an interest in writing poetry. It’s not completely out of nowhere – in 2018 I […]

I’m especially excited to announce my latest short story sale because it’s a newish genre to me: “Her Lure and Jesses” will appear in Beastly Tales, a collection of monster romance and erotic romance from Dragon Soul Press! I’ve always admired the enthusiasm and creativity of the self-titled monsterfuckers, but my own tastes hadn’t seemed […]
