It’s the weekend, kids. Go break some rules if you want. Just remember: Breaking the right rules can result in the adventure of a lifetime. Breaking the wrong rules usually results in an arrest record. If you wanted to talk about some favorite rule-breaking memories in the comments, I’ll join you. I’ve got a treasure hoard of them, and I […]
This week, we launched our second publication. So far, Michael’s novella has peaked at #3 in Amazon’s “Action/Adventure – War” category. Well done! It’s the last day of the giveaway. There’s no better way to get an introduction to the fantasy world of Menelon than a FREE ebook, is there? Be sure to get yours before the giveaway promo ends! […]
Today, we live in air conditioned houses or flats in concrete jungles, and travel in air conditioned cars and buses and planes. Natural disasters not withstanding, weather is usually little more than a minor irritation or point of idle conversation. It didn’t use to be that way. When it was cold, it was hard to keep warm. When it was hot, there were few ways to cool down. To travel, you had to be out in the weather. Weather was a fact of life – for everybody!
How hot does your fire burn? Mine is burning kind of low today, I must confess it. I’d wanted to join in on the #rpgchat discussion on Twitter earlier, but it’s difficult to shake free of all the preparatory chopping that has to be done. Not complaining – I just need to do better at organizing my Thursdays. We’re taking […]
One last word cloud and I mean to be done until Dead Man’s Trigger is ready to go. I needed, I just had to see how the intensity of that final scene in Raven’s Tears came out as a word cloud. My jaw dropped when I saw it. Clicking on it should give you a larger image, so you can […]
Okay, so Tagul Word Clouds are plenty awesome, too. May I present their version of the word cloud for chapter one of Raven’s Tears. Wow. I may have to get that one done on a shirt, or mug. Michael and I had a moment as we were reviewing each other’s work for the day where we kinda looked up and […]
So. According to WordItOut, this is what the first chapter of Raven’s Tears looks like. I can like that a lot. There are meta-things to be discussed about the so-called “random” placement of those words, eh? This is probably my last reminder abou tthe 99 cent sale. It ends at midnight. If you don’t get yours for this stupidly cheap […]
Raven’s Tears featured on Goodkindles again yesterday. Did you see it? It’s still only 99 cents through midnight PDT – after that, it returns to its $4.99 list price. I think I’m going to look into posting an excerpt for loyal readers tomorrow. You’ve got that long to give me feedback on what you’d like to see. What would pique […]
This quote sums up like 90% of my depressive episodes, right here. Substitute “depression” for “darkness” and you have it. I wonder if this is true for writers in general, that our depressive bouts are generally due to being lost in an inner world without words? Still with that three-day sale – Raven’s Tears is doing well with Kindle lovers […]
