Context: In 2019 (and one of the years following) I had the GREAT pleasure of attending a Vampire the Masquerade, Sabbat focused, immersive LARP event put on by Jackalope Studios. Real life and the cost of a ticket, hotel, and travel mean I haven’t been able to do a lot of their events since, butContinue reading “Throwback Thursday: Martyr”

Throwback Thursday: Wand
Originally shared over on my Ko-fi a few weeks ago. But, it’s another Thursday, so THROWBACK. If you want to support the cause and are in the US, ordering a physical copy from me directly is the best way to do so. Otherwise, the e-book is currently a KU exclusive (through the end of June),Continue reading “Throwback Thursday: Wand”
Week 1: Well, We did it!
It’s been a week since my first novella has been available in the public for people to buy and read. Considering my marketing is largely me shouting on social media and interacting with other broke indie authors, it’s honestly gone a little bit better than I even though it might! I wanted to be asContinue reading “Week 1: Well, We did it!”
Baby’s First Shipwreck
Or: Where Mace Briefly talks about finishing their masters. And then you get a story. WE ARE DONE THANK THE GODS That’s right. Earlier this month, I officially finished my last term of my MA in creative writing. There is a whole lot I could say, and there is an equal amount of what IContinue reading “Baby’s First Shipwreck”
Blurb and Preview of My Novella!
Coming Hopefully by End of March! Since I’m a few weeks into the process with my lovely cover artist, here we go: Announcement time! I’m self publishing my first novella within the next few months and I couldn’t be more excited. Especially with the state of the…Everything here as an openly queer author who tellsContinue reading “Blurb and Preview of My Novella!”
New Year, Same Ol’ Me
Have I ever kept to a New Years Resolution? Look, we’re at about a 60% rate of most things I wanted to accomplish in the last calendar year. Grad school in 2024 meant I certainly did a fair amount of reading and writing, even if most of the reading was more theory and craft andContinue reading “New Year, Same Ol’ Me”
Self Publishing Diaries: Getting Started
Three weeks ago, I got downsized out of my day job. Sorrows. Prayers. Six weeks of severance pay before panic sets in. Since then, I’ve started taking more seriously the idea of self-publishing a series of novellas that I’ve been working on for the better part of the last 18+ months. I’ve taken a classContinue reading “Self Publishing Diaries: Getting Started”
Inaccessable Academia
Look, I’m not trying to get published in an acedmic journal with most of my work, so I think I am allowed to say this: Analytical writing is absolutely one of the most difficult things and most of the time I hate it. Yeah I’ll joke as a writer about the fact that sometimes theContinue reading “Inaccessable Academia”
Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria and Being an Artist
So writers block, ain’t that a bitch? And don’t I REALLY wish that’s all that was affecting me. I spent 10 weeks in intensive outpatient therapy this year, thanks to my reason for staying in the corporate hellscape that is my job (we love insurance and a livable wage yo). While it was great forContinue reading “Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria and Being an Artist”
Spring
She felt her heartbeat slow as she watched the ice begin to melt outside of the walls of her husband’s home. The warming temperatures were always the first sign that soon, her mother would come to collect her. She turned away quickly, as if no longer looking would make it untrue. But she knew fullContinue reading “Spring”
