Fantasy Tales Update
Things are trucking along with my final rounds of fiddling, writing, editing and implementing the wonderful suggestions of my editor, Georgia Atkin. It will be off for book production very soon!
Independent authors don’t just write and just publish. There is a lot work that goes into making a print book and an eBook a Real Thing.
Different parts of the brain have to switch, at times a lot in one day. Skills including not just the creative aspect, but getting all the moving parts in order. When my skills need improving to do better at the craft of writing or independent publishing, I have to dive and learn.
I am grateful to rely on fantastic editing and design people, not to mention other authors, and those wonderful people who run shops who are willing to carry my books and have me do readings.
My skills have to to improve so I can make all of their jobs to help me better. Doing that makes me a better write, editor, marketing, public speaker and meeting the readers at events.
Pre-orders are closing very soon!
Thanks to those who’ve already committed to a pre-order. Those funds go straight to editing, graphic design, and book printing among other things.
The stories from urban fantasies to magic realism, and an LGBTI sword and sorcery story and more. I even dip into a paranormal romance story at the end of the book. It will be poems to flash fiction to short stories.
The sword & sorcery story! Huzzah! It’s *for sure* in the novella-sized story now! With all the help of my Beta readers and awesome Editor, things “are falling into place.”
That’s writer code for I put my bum in my chair and worked till I got a system that works for my brain. I followed that for ALL my novella edits. It allowed me the freedom to follow a path (linear for the edits) but still have creative joy in writing the things that needed improvement. Or new bits to make it better.
No story and no book happens without lots and lots hard work and setting goals. How and when you do it, is up to you. Learning what works best for you is IMHO the hardest bit.
And no story is without the hard work of so many supporting me on this journey. Thanks to all and thank yous will appear in the book.

Family Business
Squib spends a lot of time in the Line-for-Basics. Ill and scrabbling for more resources beyond what they could earn this week, Squib has to find a better way. A lot of ways exist to get ahead living in The Towers. It beats the harder scrabble for a safe place to live outside the protected dome. The high ranking citizens of The Towers have figured it out. Just surviving on the basics for food and meds isn’t enough. Time for Squib to crack the code.
Family Business is a stand alone dystopian short story about the character of Squib from my Recycle Series.
It's an origin story that takes place in the early years of The Towers.
What would you give up to get ahead in a resource scarce society?
Family Business is now included in Dark Flashes!
