Didn’t Even Have to Use My AK

Any day that I finish a first draft is a good day. The sequel to the Seventh Sons, which had a working title of the Moonwitch, but is now called the Blood of Brothers, is drafted, in all its 107,000 words of glory. Between this and the screaming baby, I think I’m gonna have a […]

Now I Know How George R. R. Martin Feels

Stories Evolve As They’re Written

I swear, I think every single novel has a different writing process. No matter how amazing my “new system” is, when it comes time to write the next book, I find myself doing something different. What hasn’t changed yet, and I don’t think ever will, is the 1/2 – 2/3 mark of the first draft. […]

Kindle Unlimited: Hopes and Fears
