I had three pieces come out in December, all on the shorter side of things! The Utopia Science Fiction 5th Anniversary Anthology included a reprint of my story, “Senchado in Microgravity,” which Utopia published originally back in April 2020. This story, about family, grief, and tea, has also been podcast and included in one of my collections, […]

Reading: Lots of anthologies and collections lately, which I’m planning to review. I’m finding books of stories easier to read right now than novels. Watching: There hasn’t been a lot we’ve watched lately, since November was NaNoWriMo, and we didn’t have a lot of spare time for TV or movies. We still haven’t finished season […]

The first column is Drawcember from Reddit. The second column is from Doodlewash’s December art challenge list. And the third column is from Writers Write’s December 2022 […]

Believe it or not, we’re almost to December and the end of the year! I feel like time is flying by this year, though that may just be in comparison to the last couple of years, which each seemed to last about a decade. For this month’s writing prompts, I’ve collected a few different challenges […]

Reading: Books for reviews, mostly. Not as much as I’d like to be reading, either. Watching: We recently watched the new Dune movie and loved that. We also flew through the first season of The Witcher, and we’re looking forward to the second season. We’ve started on Hawkeye (I adore Kate Bishop so much!). And we’re watching the […]

December, and the end of the year, are creeping up on us! So it’s time for the December 2021 writing prompts. This month, I’ve got some wintery words, and I’ve also added a bunch of unusual words. Many of these are going to require looking them up to find out what they mean, though some […]
