Reading: Mostly books to review! Watching: The first half of Bridgerton season 3 has been our main TV show, parceled out slowly so as to have enough to get to the second half of the season (which drops tomorrow!). I’ve also been watching some of the panels I couldn’t make this past weekend from WriteHive and […]

Where does the time go? It’s time for the June 2024 writing prompts! The words in the first column this month are from Kick in the Creatives. I’ve shortened a couple into single-word prompts, but I left a few of them longer, as those felt more evocative with the entire prompt. (As always, you can […]

I had one poem published in June 2023, “Beneath an Unknown Sky,” which appears in the Summer Solstice issue of Eternal Haunted Summer.

Reading: Books for review, mostly, and books for the essays for Unfixed Timelines 3. But I’ve also just gotten The Anti-Planner, which is mostly not for reading, but I occasionally read through a few of the exercises to see what might be useful to me at that time or in the future. And I’m trying […]

It’s almost a week until June begins, but with the way May ends, this is the time for the June writing prompts! This month, I’ve set the WayBack Machine to several old lists of prompts. Column 1 comes from a 2016 6-word writing challenge. Column 2 comes from 2020 writing prompts. And column 3 comes […]

I’ve been selling pieces pretty steadily, but I only had one new piece release in June. My poem “Lost in Space” appeared in Felis Futura, which is an anthology of future cats. I wrote this poem specifically for the anthology, involving cats on a spaceship and how their shedding might gum up the works a […]

Watching: We burned through season 2 of Sanditon recently, as well as the first part of season 4 of Stranger Things.
