Author’s Note: So this story has taken a mighty left turn compared to the original version of it. I’ve changed a couple things along the way, but this chapter introduces a redemption arc for one of the characters who didn’t get it in the first iteration. Can you decide which character it is? Happy reading.…
Author’s Note: Okay, so this serial has NOT gone to plan. Have I been writing? Yes. Have I been working on this story? Er, sometimes. And more often now that a few other projects are off my plate. Three new releases coming soon! Plus this new chapter. Happy reading. Chapter Fourteen: Tests of Strength “So…he…
Author’s Note: Okay, so this year has NOT gone completely to plan. Have I been writing? Yes. Have I been working on this story? Er, no. But I have been writing. Does that count? I hope you enjoy the new chapter – and pretty much all of it is new writing. Chapter Thirteen: First Impressions…
Wow it’s been a busy 3 months since Yule, and I’ve been writing pretty much every day. That said, I haven’t been doing any re-writing. I know some of you signed up to keep going on my Lady of a Thousand Names serial when it came off Amazon’s KindleVella, and I thought I could keep…
Author’s Note: Okay, so the end of 2021 and the beginning of 2022 have been a lot busier than I expected. I’m working on this story and it’s getting fixed (I like it a lot better than even when I tried to rewrite it in 2010), but it’s going slower than I hoped. I hope…
Author’s Note: This story was a weekly email for friends 25 years ago. For the few of you who read it back then, I’ve made some changes. I’ve introduced a new character and made the writing far more active. Fantasy stories are often written with the “Omniscient Narrator”, but I’m taking my experience in romance,…
Author’s Note: Welcome back! I hope the first Part of Lady of a Thousand Names drew you here and you’re continuing the story. This is the first chapter of Part 2: The Desert King and it’s a Patreon exclusive. Happy reading Chapter Ten: Stranger on the Hill Terim Gottherd wiped his hand across his brow…
It’s time for Snippet Sunday again and I’m enjoying my weekend. We have Super Day here in Cheyenne where the community comes together for a craft fair/exhibition day. Even the local politicians try to sell you on their election bids. The kids got some free bike helmets from the local safety commission. Fun times. I’m…
It’s time for Snippet Sunday and the summer has arrived. It’s been really warm here in Cheyenne that it feels more like July even though it’s June. We’re hiding inside and spend a lot of time in the basement where it stays cool. This year I’m hoping to finish my serial and that means I…
Woohoo! Welcome to Weird, Wild, & Wicked Tales for the cover reveals of the whole Ivory Road serial. I thought I’d do something different this week because not only can I, but I’m pretty sure y’all would like to see this. I wrote this story decades ago (2000) while I was doing fieldwork up on…
