This week, I finished up chapter fifty-nine of Pathway of the Moon. One more to go, and then it's done and off to my list of works to edit (which currently consists of only that one piece and part of another, so it's a short list of books for my own work, at least). I'm… Continue reading Work-In-Progress Wednesdays #37

Flash Fiction Fridays: Cold Hard Stone
This week's flash fiction is my take on a writing prompt I recently posted on Pinterest. ~~~ Shauna opened her eyes to...nothing? Inky blackness met her gaze, and she shifted with a soft whine. Pain sparked through her arm, but she ignored it and forced herself to sit up anyway. Where was she? Cold stone… Continue reading Flash Fiction Fridays: Cold Hard Stone
Flash Fiction Fridays – Guardian
This week’s Flash Fiction Friday is another one based on a prompt I found on Pinterest. This one is built on the premise that everyone but you has a guardian angel. Instead, you have a guardian demon who deals with things in more violent but much more efficient fashion. It sounded interesting, so let’s see… Continue reading Flash Fiction Fridays – Guardian
Flash Fiction Fridays – First Meetings
This week's flash fiction is about Leo's parents and their first meeting. If you've ever wondered how his mother ended up stuck in such an awful situation, this answers that. Enjoy! ~~~ She held her head as high as she could and looked him in the eye. Pale violet blended out into a deeper shade… Continue reading Flash Fiction Fridays – First Meetings
Flash Fiction Fridays: Dead Men Do Tell Tales
This week's is pretty short. It's based on a writing prompt I saw on Facebook that looked interesting. Hopefully you all enjoy even though it's short! ~~~ He never should've taken the job. Or at least, not without asking a lot of questions first. His target lay bleeding out on the floor, her spirit long-gone… Continue reading Flash Fiction Fridays: Dead Men Do Tell Tales

This is a sneak peek at a short story I'm working on for a short story collection that I hope to publish in 2021. I know, a while out, but I like to get a head start so I can make sure everything is finished on schedule. Anyway, this one is about Enlil, a storm… Continue reading Work-In-Progress Wednesdays #34
Flash Fiction Fridays – The Shade of Whitsmare
Okay, so this one is a one-off that doesn't go with any particular story or world. I got the idea from a prompt on one of the writing groups I'm with on Facebook, and I figured I'd share it. This one's in first person. I rarely write in first person since I generally prefer third… Continue reading Flash Fiction Fridays – The Shade of Whitsmare
Work-In-Progress Wednesdays #33
This week's goes with an idea I'm playing around with for a short story. We'll see where it goes, but I'm liking the idea and characters so far. Enjoy! ~~~ Eltara reached out with trembling fingers and touched the cold stone base of the statue at the center of the square. This city square held… Continue reading Work-In-Progress Wednesdays #33
Flash Fiction Fridays – Thuriel’s Dagger
This week's flash fiction is about the forging of the dagger from Revelar's Queen. Enjoy! ~~~ Thuriel bent close over the glowing silver in its crucible. Bubbles formed and popped on the surface. It was almost time. Soon he would forge the blade that would protect his descendants, the blade that would destroy her. The… Continue reading Flash Fiction Fridays – Thuriel’s Dagger
Work-In-Progress Wednesdays #32
This week, I have a scene from Pathway of the Moon's most recent chapter. I've got ten chapters to go in this monolith of a book! Super excited to have the end in sight. This has been my most rigorous project yet, and the sequel promises to be even more complex in its plot and… Continue reading Work-In-Progress Wednesdays #32
