Reading: Continuing with books to review and craft books, depending on if I’m reading in the living room with a cat on my lap (physical books) or as I wind down before bed (ebooks).

Already this year, I’ve had five things published–four stories and a poem! “Good to the Last Drop” is a microfiction piece that appeared in the January issue of The Antihumanist. It’s a darkly humorous story about coffee and space travel. My poem, “Slime, or Primordial Ooze?” was published in the January issue of Star*Line. This […]

Reading: I’m in a weird place between having read a bunch of books over the holidays (with travel and whatnot) and not having picked up anything new yet. So at the moment, I’m not reading anything. And it’s weird. Maybe I can tackle some of my graphic novels finally! Watching: We finished Hawkeye, and we started […]

Tomorrow begins a new year, which is also a great time to take on a new writing challenge! This month, I’ve got some words derived from a couple of non-thematic lists I found, mixed in with some totally random words. So you may discern some themes from day to day, but hopefully the inclusion of […]

2019 is coming to a close, so it’s time for the January 2020 writing prompts! Most of the words for this month are themed to the season, but there are also a good handful of really random things, so that you can have some non-seasonal prompts! You could also integrate the photo I’ve included with […]
