I like to think of myself as a relatively well-rounded writer. For my day job, I write product copy for a charity-based e-com site — scarves, jewelry, picture frames, you name it. I’ve been doing it for close to five years now and it’s just a thing I do. For my personal writing, I’ve done

Ah, I can’t believe I didn’t post about this earlier this week. It goes to show how insane the past five days have been, I guess. My short story “Ink Calls to Ink” which originally appeared on WilyWriters.com in February of last year has just been selected for a Best of anthology. Entitled Night-Mantled: The

When I first started self-publishing my novels with Cobalt City Blues and Greetings from Buena Rosa, it was a little home enterprise. It was a way to make my novels available to friends and family in an easy-to-read format. If other people wanted to read them, that was fine by me. For those purposes, Lulu.com

I don’t want to harp on this point, because I think it’s been done many times by people with far greater reach than I have. But having recently experienced some benefits from this myself, I had to comment on it. Next summer, I will have been involved in Role Playing Games (RPG’s to the initiated)

It’s been a chaotic month. In the past four weeks (in addition to my regular 9-5 job), I did one reading for CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE URBAN KIND at the University Bookstore, celebrated one wonderful relationship milestone, celebrated my birthday, and finished the first draft on three original short stories — two of them started

The first Gato Loco novel, Greetings from Buena Rosa (which you can download for free here) grew out of a news report about the murders in Jarez and Chihuahua. Old news now, perhaps, but at the time, it was shocking that hundreds of people were being killed and that in lieu of actual investigation, some

With the release of the Close Encounters of the Urban Kind anthology earlier this month, what better time to get to know one of its several authors? The always entertaining Rosemary Jones recently agreed to a brief interview about her work, her process, and the anthology. Ladies and gentlemen, without further ado…Rosemary Jones! 1) Your

My not-so- secret project is starting to take shape. Last year, I put together the Cobalt City Christmas in a very short amount of time, thanks in no small part to some fantastic stories cranked out quickly by author friends of mine. I feel that the anthology was a great success. Much was learned, and

The Wayward Coffeehouse reading for Close Encounters of the Urban Kind went very nicely. We had a decent turn out, including the wonderful folks from Seattle-Geekly.com. Books were sold and autographed, nightmares were seeded (I blame “Frames of Reference” for that, but Rosemary Jones’ story “Two Out, Wendigo” might trigger some cannibalism fears in people),

I’d like to thank Doree from the Phinneywood Blog for the lovely press coverage of the upcoming Wayward Coffeehouse reading that turned into a brief interview of yours truly. I recommend reading the article not because I’m as narcissistic as the average writer, but because I’ve adored the Phinneywood Blog for a while now. And
