I recently registered "Null(Void)" with the copyright office. This simply means that it is on official, federal record that I own my work, in the case of copyright infringement or other unsavory things that could turn litigious. Full disclaimer: I used to work in the Library of Congress, which houses the Copyright Division. (The only... Continue Reading →
Let’s Talk Content Warnings
I made a "content warning" mock up a long while ago (sticky note) and just recently, I put it into an actual work. This is in the Beta Reader copies of novella Kinetics. I slapped that in there because, well, the story gets really, really dark. If it were a small smack of both contents, I... Continue Reading →
Thoughts and musings
Works that plan on being indie pub: Galaxia Mika's Robot Works that will try to be traditionally published Everything else (lolz) No seriously: Dreamer The Glassman Butterfly Reflectors Kinetics etc These are all works lined up to be in front of or already are in front of publishers/agents for consideration.

Year of Submissions: Year 2
Second year of me puttin' my works out there. The story that was acquired in year one, "RunOff" was kill fee'd (contract nullified) by Nightlight - but they recently bought "Null(Void)", which can be listened to here. Yay, narration! Not much has really changed outside of the fact I have seriously been working more on... Continue Reading →

Changes to Patreon
My Patreon has laid fallow for quite some time. I gave it a gander and through the distance of time, I saw there were a lot of things that could be tweaked and less-formulaic. Especially now since I follow two Patreons so I see what is received on the patron end, now. The changes: Lesser... Continue Reading →
Picking between Indie and Trad Publishing
So, I have been looking into the difference between independent and traditional publishing. I've had my work in front of agents time and time again for months at this point. I've subbed it to non-agented places and still get rejects. And on top of that, it doesn't help that there are obvious issues traditional publishing... Continue Reading →
I swear I’m not dead, Just Busy
It's certainly been a min since I posted here, huh? Reason: I've been writing. And editing. And editing. And I've been sending work out to agents and publishers. I signed a contract for a story last month and expect to be getting publisher edits soon. I also participated in #DVpit and #PitMad, which weren't really... Continue Reading →
BetaBooks is a bust for me
I gave BetaBooks a try for centralizing my Beta Readers, and it didn't work out. Here were my complications: - Many readers didn't really sign up because they didn't want to go through establishing ground on a new website - I have to pay to have more than one book up (I think it would...
