NaNoWriMo recap

| November 30, 2013

I’ll do the November recap later on, especially since there’s not much to report for November. I was busy writing a novel. Or possibly two. I started out the month with a clear outline, and was able to charge forward and get a good headstart. This was important, because every November we go to AmberCon […]

2012 in Review

| January 2, 2013

Well, we’re a couple of days into the new year, but I haven’t had time to sit down at a computer till now. We’ve spent the past week on a whirlwind Midwestern tour, not in the awesome rock star sort of way, but more in the “see all the people and do all the things!” […]
