I'm a bit busy today, so I thought I'd post a tiny excerpt from The Nightward wherein the Lady Gretchen and her Amazores prepare to do battle with an ancient weapon called the Dark. The Amazores waited in the cold. Even the walls above were empty of their presence. Behind Lady Gretchen, the sounds of … Continue reading Excerpt: The Nightward – A Battle Approaches
Excerpt: IACTA ALEA EST – Mr. Gae Is Expecting You
A little bit of Shalon from the sequel to LEX TALIONIS, to keep you company as you go into the weekend.

Another snippet from Viyella's story. In truth, I'm well past these bits, but I don't let myself post unless I've done lots of fresh work. Just keeping myself honest 😉 Hope you like it! He stood and sent out one more thought. Yowls filled the courtyard, punctuated by screams. Seconds later, his cat Farain rounded … Continue reading Excerpt: The Nightward – Farain the Cat

In Which We Meet The Heroine & Hero Of Our Tale
A bit from THE NIGHTWARD again, because I just wrote a nice section with Viyella and Dagen and thought you should all be introduced to each other.

In Which She Attempts to Write Five Days A Week, No Matter What
Yep, you heard me. For about a month or so now, I've been working hard to make sure I write Monday to Friday, no exceptions. This is a big departure for me.

However, I take my writing … Continue reading In Which She Attempts to Write Five Days A Week, No Matter What
