I was planning to do the meme Ann tagged me with, but it’s being pre-empted (will return to regularly scheduled programming tomorrow,) in order to do a favor for a friend.
She’s going to be writing a column for Romancing The Blog and needs your help. If you had a website or blog before you […]

Not long ago, a friend asked me why I never blog about craft anymore. She pointed out that before I sold, I often blogged about the writing process, about method and voice, dialogue and conflict.
I started thinking about it, and yeah, I used to do that…and then I realized that I’m not the only […]

Gah–been MIA for days! I have a friend visiting, and we’ve been super busy with sightseeing and Buffy and Angel marathons. Fun!
Anyway, I just got notice that my interview with a local magazine is up on the website…horrid pictures, but hey, I’ve never photographed well. Part of the interview is […]
