Notte Snippet: The Golden Man Has a Temper
The golden man did not expect me to try to bite his throat. No one expects that, generally.
Notte WIP
The lovely and brilliant Dawn Metcalf (who wrote truly unique and beautiful book, if you haven't read it yet) has tagged me for The Next Big Thing, wherein I explain the project I'm working on. I'm severely late in answering her, because of reasons. ;) However, it's still my pleasure to explain.
2013 Holiday Special!
First up, business (and hopefully some pleasure): now through February, you can get an autographed copy of The Sundered for only eleven dollars, including shipping and handling. This is a great deal! Jump on it while you can.
Nanowrimo 2012: WINNER.
I have succeeded. Notte's novel is only about halfway done. It's tying in with the Sundered sequel, too. I may be at this for a while.
Nanowrimo 2012 Snippet: Almost There
More from Notte! It's unedited, etc. I'm still behind on words, but that is okay. I'm making great progress.
Nanowrimo Snippet: Ooh, Snap.
“Keep up, idiot,” Re muttered, and I shook myself from my wonder to trot beside him.
Nanowrimo 2012: Snippet From “Notte”
Fair warning: this is almost completely unedited, beyond a quick skim for typos (which I probably missed anyway).That's okay. First drafts are what they are.

Interview With Jeff Goins
Do the hard thing — that's where we grow. If you do that, you'll never have to worry about restlessness or feeling like your life has a purpose.
How to Make Third-Person Perspective More Personal
Having trouble making your characters seem less distant? This will help.
This tip is nifty. This tip is seriously, unrepentantly nifty. To make your third-person point of view sound more personal, you have to remove the filter words.Notte Snippet
I haven't done a snippet in a while. Here you go - the opening to my next WIP, Notte. Notte. My friend, I ask that you pardon my strange manner…
How to Find Confidence
It's like some kind of old-timey riddle: name a thing we all wish we had, yet hate when we see it in other people? Yup, you guessed it: confidence.
Dealing With the Word “No”
Each time you get a "no," it can really feel like that was it - the end. You will get another chance. I'm going to share two really simple (though challenging) things that kept me going through all the "no's," until I finally had my "yes."
Music Saves My SouL :
Writing Playlist (It’s Music, Man!)
I blame movies. All my scenes tend to have music. I don't always listen to it when I'm writing or editing, but I almost always do it better when I have mad tunes playing. (Warning: YouTube links abound. What, you didn't think I'd mention music without giving you a chance to HEAR it, did you?)
Balancing Creativity and Real Life
Family life, work life, and creative life form a crazy-nasty juggling act. The good news is, it's possible. What's required is self-control - and not the way you might think.
How (And When) to Handle Critics
Lemme tell ya something: you are never going to make everyone happy.

The Next Big Thing
The awesome and wonderful Pavarti K Tyler tagged me in a blog series called The Next Big Thing, and she's sent me ten nifty questions regarding my next book. Thus, I bring you... answers! :)
So, About Those ‘Lazy’ Self-Publishers….
I love Sue Grafton's work. I respect her as a person. However, some of the statements she made in a recent interview... Wow. Ouch.
