Being a Better Writer: Perspectives · 9:35pm Aug 14th, 2015

Perspective. It's important.

I'll be honest, part of me right now simply wants to link that wonderful scene from Pixar's Ratatouille wherein Anton Ego sits down for a meal and orders "perspective." Mostly just because it's a fun scene, and Anton is such a fun character. I mean, his nickname is "The Grim Eater," what's not to love about that?

Being a Better Writer: Foils · 8:10pm Jul 13th, 2015

When I was younger, there was a point in my life where I was really, really into dissecting the games I played. And I don't just mean in story. I took those games apart. I learned to open and edit .ini files to put campaign-only units into skirmish games, or how to break the game in ways that designers never anticipated. I dove into the files. I put games through the wringer.

Amazon Paid Me · 11:58am Oct 2nd, 2016

OMFG I was going through my bank account trying to figure out where all the money goes and I noticed that Amazon sent me $2.77 royalties for my human clop. Ah, I should write more of that stuff. It's nice being paid.

Writing is awesome.

"Rescue" from the Underworld · 7:31pm Oct 2nd, 2017

Amid some of the other blogs I see along these lines, it feels kind of petty to mention this, but you should all know about it anyway. Today, I've been moved from my basement desk to the wing of my building that houses the rest of my department. The good news is that I now have an actual view.

So. there I was, folding laundry, a feat to do when you are recovering from food poisoning, when this lovely scene popped into my mind.

Shining Armor: We're so glad you're willing to watch Flurry for us.
Twilight Sparkle: Of course I would, I'm The best aunt ever!
Cadence: Well, Twilight, there is a little problem—
Shining Armor: You see, Flurrys been on a Mexican kick lately and—
Cadence: She really likes Mexican food.

Classic Being a Better Writer: The Art of Misdirection · 9:24pm Oct 20th, 2018

Euugh. Today was supposed to be a catch-up day for writing. As well as a day when I got up and put up this post first thing in the morning. And then … I woke up at around eleven with a fuzzy head and light sore throat … and then I feel back asleep and woke up at 1 … and then I actually crawled out of bed at 3 a few minutes ago … We’ll see if I get any writing done, but from prior experience of forcing myself to write when my brain is like this and then deleting it all the moment my mind comes

I know I've said it before in previous blog posts · 10:14pm Oct 18th, 2017

But writing is hard, yo.

I'm sick as a dog at the moment, which isn't helping. I'm trying to keep chugging away on active projects, and I've gotten a lot done so far this month, but this week in particular has been pretty much a lost cause. Hopefully, but the end of the month I'll have a couple of things updated.

Stay healthy.

I'm alive... · 6:22pm Oct 3rd, 2016


Uhhh...argh...I think I'm alive. Got clobbered two Fridays ago with a nasty throat-to-sinus-to-lungs, butt-kicking plague that forced me to take two days off work and still has me coughing my lungs out. Now my poor hubby Tale Weaver got hit with it last Thursday, so for days we were both barely functioning enough to make a whole pony between us :pinkiesick:

Being a Better Writer: So You Want to Be a Wizard, Eh? · 6:54pm Jul 19th, 2016

Picture this, if you will, for a moment. Imagine a young man, an author. Well, a writer who has just recently become an author, having successfully published his first book. He's just been invited to a big convention, where to his excitement, he will be on a panel alongside some of fantasy's greats in writing (if I'm being sparse on details here, forgive me as I don't remember all of them).

Epics and the Details – A Short Post · 6:48pm Apr 21st, 2016

Extra Credits is a great Youtube series. In fact, at one point, they were even featured on my Links page. I tend to rotate things there from time to time, and maybe I should be giving them another go.

Classic Being a Better Writer: Getting Started · 6:24pm Jun 16th, 2017

Welcome back to another Classic Being a Better Writer post! For those of you who are unfamiliar with these posts, they're essentially recall posts that look back on old BaBW posts and link to them for those newcomers who may have never seen them when they originated. BaBW has a pretty big backlog of articles, and with me having a goal of adding 4000+ words daily to my current book project (Jungle at the moment), Classic throwback posts can be a good way to
