Happy birthday to me!
Between attempting to buy a house (OMG don’t ask! so evil!) and wrestling with a software package of evil for work (I came, I saw, I kicked its ass!), I have been getting darned near no writing done. Shame on me! In fact, I’m so exhausted that I’ve...Alas, alack, and woe!
Should I be deeply saddened that the people most interested in my writing blog are @#@()* spammers? Listen, spammers. Give it up. Stop wasting my time. Stop wasting your time. I have comment notification turned on. I’m here to promote my writing career, not...Holy, uh…

‘Nuff said, really. June was the suck. I promptly sent out my rejected story to a new market, but that’s about it. I do still have two stories in progress, and am contemplating a TV script and a potential novel (meep!), but basically the month was spent on...Check it out!
