11PM. Sunday, July 11th. I typed my two favorite words and put the first draft of a new Seraph novel to bed. 40 chapters. Just shy of 500 pages of manuscript. I am happy with the results. It took a little longer than I anticipated. When I outlined the book in 2021, I truly believed…

It’s been a hot minute since I’ve posted … well, anything up on this here site. I spent June and a good hunk of July taking a very long and satisfying nap. Since then, I’ve been spending my writing time on the sequel to SERAPH. The working title is TRAGODOI, which is (I know) a…
I woke up this morning to find Calliope sitting at my dining room table. “If I’d known you were showing up today,” I said, “I would have worn my formal jammies.” “Oh, please,” she said, gesturing to herself. The muse was sitting in my usual chair with her knees tucked up under her chin. She…
