Earlier I made a post about Supergirl 6×12 and how Diverse and Marginalized voices are needed because they often speak to each other across lines of marginalization. The post came almost entirely out of my reaction to the episode, but I feel like I can’t address my own reaction without addressing other people’s reaction, and …
The first thing I did when I woke up this morning was watch Supergirl Episode 6×12. For those of you who don’t know, the episode titled Blind Spots was cowritten by Azie Tesfai, the actress who plays Kelly Olsen on the show. The story deals with the fallout from one of Supergirl’s Superhero battles, and …
So, this blog has mostly been focused on writing, and that will probably continue, but there is a topic I want to address. We’re coming up on the release of the third live action adaptation of Dune. I’m writing this on September 10th, 2021, and Dune is scheduled to release on October 22nd, 2021. Now, …
Someone on one of my Discord Servers asked me what my writing process is. I thought I would share the answer here. I see an idea. I steal the idea. I over analyze the idea. I spend time obsessing over all the things I don’t like about the original execution of the idea. I fix …
So, way back in the dark and dusty days of early 2016 I was working on a Novel which was tentatively titled ‘The Caster of Shadows’. I got about a hundred thousand words in, and was just chugging along, turning out chapter after chapter when something happened and for various reasons, I stopped and put …
So, I’m writing this on what is technically the day after I finished Transistor. That is, it’s after midnight, even if I haven’t gone to bed yet. The reason I mention that is because it won’t get posted for a couple of weeks since it’s going in the queue for the Monday blog posts, but …
So, last night I wrote the second of two sex scenes in Transistor, and it got me thinking about my rules for writing sex scenes. Yes, I have rules for writing sex scenes, because that’s just how my life goes. The thing is those rules are why my sex scenes pretty much always get positive …
Much like I did with Mail Order Bride and Scatter, I want to share as much about my latest novel with you, so here is the back cover blurb I wrote for for Transistor, which is a fluffy, angsty lesbian superhero romance with a Trans protagonist. Keep in mind that the book is still in …
A chapter shorter than I expected, but still almost 95K words. God, this has been an adventure, and I am so, so freaking proud of myself for writing this book. There are not words for how much it means to me.
(The title will make more sense once you’re read Transistor, I promise.) Writing is, by its very nature, a solitary pursuit. Sure, there are people who work with writing partners. I’ve even done that a time or two myself. But even when you’re working with someone, the actual writing is done alone, with nothing but …
