Dang, nobody took me up on the YA LOLcats. Oh well. We’ve been light on editing content this week, sorry about that. Mostly it’s because there’s not a lot going on. Work is work. I finished the final edit of book 3 of Hallowmere (oh, the interesting things that are happening!), within the last couple weeks we’ve [...]

Background: I have been roped into a church talent show for this weekend. I could have offered a number of my talents–photography for the display portion, singing a song or playing on my trumpet–but I don’t have enough time to prepare anything interesting. I’d have to spend [...]
