The major one for indies is 20Books Vegas, an offshoot of the 20Books to 50K Facebook group, held every November…Continue reading The Facebook Experiment

Roundup: Updates, News, Writing Progress
Here’s a quick update about things that are going on behind the scenes. Burnout I’m very happy to say that while I’m not 100% out of burnout, I’m very nearly there. Say, 90-95% or so.

Everybody Needs a Little Sunshine
This week, I started developing Vampire Alley, the sixth Sunshine Walkingstick novel, in earnest. So far, I have a strong beginning and a strong ending, but the middle part is still a bit fuzzy. It will come, eventually, hopefully sooner rather than later as this is one of the books I want to get out…Continue reading Everybody Needs a Little Sunshine
