While I wasn’t able to find a page with many “weird” historic events for September, I’ve got a couple of options for those looking for historical events to inspire your writing or other creative endeavors. Restless (a UK-based site) has a list of twenty-two historic events that happened in September, nearly one for every day […]

I’ve been on vacation, so my normal reading, watching, and listening to habits are a little off right now! Reading: Still books for review, and I’m going to be starting in on another writing craft book next week that has more reading portions, though not as many sections as The Wayward Writer. (I’ll be doing a […]

September is just around the corner (and with it, hopefully cooler temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere as we slide toward fall), so it’s time for the September 2024 prompts!

Welcome to September and this month’s writing prompts! The first column this month is a throwback to my prompts from 2018. Most of the words are September themed, with a chunk that use the letters in the word September. The second column is the optional prompt list from Kick in the Creatives. I’ve changed the […]

For the first time in a long while, I don’t have any new stories or poems out in the past month! But not to fear, there will be more new pieces coming soon. So in the meantime, I did have a new book out this month: Camp Haunt. Which is actually a re-release of sorts, since […]

Reading: Time to sink into some additional research for the novella I wrote in July, so I can plan out some revisions to it. Some of the research is to make sure I get the historical parts accurate, and some of it is so I can make it super spooky! Watching: We tore through The Sandman, […]
