I got 1000 words done on Lover of Ghosts today and also sent of a short story collection to Aspen Mountain Press. If they like it I hope to release several more themed collections over the next few years.

The good news is that Lover of Ghosts is half-finished. The bad news is that it is already meant to be finished by now.

Fan Fiction

2009-04-26T18:13:00.005-05:00

It seems my old fan fiction pages have some hacked code. I am cleaning them up and will post fresh links here. Bear in mind that this is very old writing that predates my published work. So I make no promises as to the quality.

Dragon Speech :)

2009-04-25T19:58:00.001-05:00

Given my reduced writing time I have decided to try out a new product. Dragon NaturallySpeaking is a voice transcription program and I am wondering if this might be a way to speed up first draft writing--especially as my typing skills are not all that good. Even after writing quite a few books I am still a two-finger typist. I look forward to being able to give it a go....

Entrecard Jumps the Shark

2009-04-20T21:30:00.006-05:00

Entrecard was a free advertisement swapping system for blogs. A recent attempt to monetise the system caused many glitches and many complaints. The response? To ban any such discussion from the forums and block most users from accessing the forums. The end, I suspect, is near. And shutting off the ability to discuss it on site will have predictable results....

I see the winner of the Pulitzer prize for fiction is a 300-page short story collection-slash- novel : Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout. I am always tempted by the Pulitzer winner. But I hesitate to sign up for this book which although no doubt excellently written seem to tred the the well travelled literary ground of sad people in small town, probably travelling through cruelty and ennui to end with a slightly ambiguous tragedy.

That and it is $14, which is a lot to pay for a paperback.

I am sitting in a hotel room that is literally bigger than my apartment. I brought my manuscript to work on but a combinations of airport fugue and free bubble bath is making this rather unlikely.....

I am not sure if I will do much with it, but as I have a page on FiledBy.com I have claimed it.

New Review: Shifting Perspectives #2

2009-03-04T09:14:00.000-06:00

"Shifting Perspectives 2 brings us a few new shifter types and three stories to whet our appetites for more. While I enjoyed all three, I would have to say that Ms. Glass has peak my interest about a certain little helper in Steal the Sky. I’m not sure if there will be more to come, but I’ll definitely be the first to read the next installment if she decides to have a bit of mercy and tell us more." [read more]
