We’re Podcasting!

My writing group, the Inkhorn Society, now has a podcast! There are five members on the podcast, and there are more members will likely be part of it in the future. Our first episode is up, and we look at Halli Lilburn’s piece, Great Aunt Maud. I think we did a good critique on the Read More…

Till

I haven’t posted in a long time, as I’ve been finishing up some work. More on that later in the next few weeks as I have a big announcement regarding the Inkhorn Society! But till then… let’s talk about the word till. I always squirm a bit when people use the word till in their Read More…

Those are the three asterisks in a row that denote the passing of time in a story, or sometimes minor breaks in Read More…

Gender Neutral Pronouns

It’s awkward, though. In Read More…

Waiting For Inspiration

My wife often wonders how my mind works. I get my ideas from all over the place, and I’m a little bit weird. Adequately weird, I think. A few weeks ago I was feeling restless. I’ve been working on rewrites for a long time now. Months, really, and I was feeling I’d like to take Read More…

Buy My Book!

There’s the haunting opening story After Momma Died Carrying The Jelly Baby, which is an award-winning short story. There’s also the disturbing Read More…
