You are at a convention or other event and find yourself in the company of a few fellow authors. You all decide to go back to the room of one of the authors and just keep the evening going. While swapping stories, and sipping various adult beverages (if allowed), the evening is suddenly...

John Barrows was an unexceptional young man. At seventeen, he had good grades, did not completely suck at athletics, and had the simple dream of getting into a decent college, graduating with a business degree, and working for thirty or so years before retiring to a simple life. The only thing...

Have started this one twice - once back as a teenager, and then again about five years later in college. Both times got to about chapter three and burned out. And yet... a contest on PocketFM may have given me the hook I need to force it out... if I'm willing to post in "real time" ... So...

Just saw an article on Substack about an actual article that appeared in several national Newspapers over the past weekend, listing a bunch of books for summer reading. The problem? First, the article itself was written ENTIRELY by AI, and second, though some of the titles and authors are real...

Also didn't see a "Multi-Genre" one but didn't really look for that... But one of the biggest markets in the early 20th Century were Westerns and they do have periodical resurgences for a few years before fading away for about a decade (and then surging back).

Chapter 41 is up, 42 might be posted by the end of the day and 43 will probably go up Friday - and then Kelly will go on hiatus until I have at least five chapters written for "book two" (which will just be posted as part of book 1, instead of separate books like the Jack Diamond stuff)...

Draft one was garbage, and draft two I haven't bothered to scan (it is ... halfway between this one and, well, garbage). This isn't the best but it's the closest I've gotten to how Sparrow looks in costume (after her first wig was trashed).

After starting on four books between three sites where I kept thinking "This would be great if they had a decent editor; it's 'good enough' but could be better" I found myself wondering if maybe I should offer my services AS an editor... Not sure what kind of rates would be reasonable or if...

Has anyone tried to write (or actually successfully written) for these people? I am a little leery but it does not seem too difficult (especially given the quality of the stuff my wife listens to on it)...

Had this idea pop up in my warped head last night. Have no real idea how or what to do with it past the first chapter, and rather than letting it languish, I'll post it here. Meet Maxwell Harlin. He is a completely average man with two great loves: reading, and being the minion to whichever...

Do not recommend (after endless tests it appears I just accidentally put a sleeping pill in with my daily medicine and passed out, somehow, on the neighbor's lawn)... but it did give me some time to write. Finished "Diamond in the Rough" and started on a sequel (yeah, getting ahead of myself a...
