Since GENMOS: Gathering Storms was officially published on the last day of March, I’ve been busy running campaigns on Twitter, Facebook, and via the libraries, and while I’ve received good levels of interest, I’ve also often received looks of confusion when the words “Furry” or “Anthro” pop up in conversation. For those not in the …

The minimum Word Count. . .March 18, 2017
When I talk in public, I am long-winded, take forever to get to the point, and sometimes my ramblings never even make sense. When I write, I attempt to be smooth, quick, and efficient. That’s why one of my biggest pet peeves, is the minimum word count. I know why it exists, especially for commercial …

Six Impossible Things Reviewed, March 8th, 2017
While taking a break from creating worlds, I decided to peruse others’ creations. Being frugal by both nature and necessity (Insert your own comment about the provincial government here) I was delighted to find an e-book by acclaimed author Renee Carter Hall, a fellow FWG member. First things first, this is a …

Adapting to Social Media, March 5, 2017
Apologies off the top for my month-long absence, but it has not been without purpose. Once more I have been attempting to: increase my presence on social media, sought reviews for Gathering Storms Advanced Review Copy, adapted Nobilis: Seedling for a submission, polished off a short story I have had on my backburner for over …
The Poor Girl in the Bread Aisle, February 12, 2017
My yell of victory was hard won and unrestrained. I had just received word that my short, “A Choice in Exile.” Had been accepted by Scary Dairy Press for use in their “Mother’s Revenge” anthology. This made me a multi-genre author! To say I am excited would be a horrible understatement. To compound to my …

What is a Canadian Author? January 28, 2016.
There was a question, on one of the forums that I currently belong to. It asked, what defines a Canadian novel. I thought about it, after my initial idea, which was depression, I realized that is not true. Yes, books like Stone Angel are certainly sad, but it was also realistic, and in it, …

It Takes a Village. . . January 22nd, 2017
What started over 15 years ago as a jumble of thoughts put into some semblance of order, is finally seeing the moment of true birth into the world. I am both excited and apprehensive. What if all of my hard work, my writing and my editing, my submissions, and my reinventions, turn out to be …

Professional AND Published! January 15th, 2017
Wow, what a week. It all started once I was done my last blog post. That evening, Howl from THP sent me a telegraph to inform me that Seven Deadly Sins: Furry Confessions was available on Amazon. The anthology contained my story, A Voice Not Spoken, making me a published author. The cover art looked …

Fur and Zombies, January 8th, 2017
Is writing a hobby, catharsis, or obsession? The answer? Catharsis. My mind is always busy, and I have a very, very active imagination. I also have a hard time expressing my personal feelings. I talk often, but my topics are always anything but personal. I love to speak about work, or technical details, or about …
Farewell 2016
While 2016 may have been a year fraught with celebrity deaths, civil unrest, oddball politics, and other countless issues, it has also been my most successful literary year. Not since 2005 have I had even a glimmer of hope that one of my novels would find a place in the printed world, but since September, …
