Today’s short story is another I wrote a while ago to some long-lost prompt (I think; either that, or it just stumbled out of my subconscious. I’m not sure at this point.) Although it’s long enough that it falls outside of my flash fiction limit of 500 words, it’s over …
Today I’m reviewing Heart of the Winterland by Kristen Kooistra, a fantasy novel full of powerful female characters, enchanting scenery, and–most importantly–friendship, and love. I should note before I go further that I do know Kristen, but this review was by no means solicited–I had Heart of the Winterland on …
Every now and then I dust off old stories to see how they look. Some of them are terrible and shall never see the light of day. Some might be worth polishing up, if I took the time to do so. And others, while never serious pieces, are cute enough …
Today’s Saturday Short is a story I wrote a few years ago for my aunt’s birthday. She loves the ocean, and diving, and I previously wrote her a story about a shark and a mermaid (which might, one day, venture into the public eye as well.) This story is less …

Each month, starting in July, I will interview one writer and be interviewed by another writer. I’ll be sharing the interviews I …
Once a month I post a book review for a fantasy novel that I’ve read in the recent past. These reviews are posted on “Magic Monday”, the second Monday of every month. Today I’m reviewing Egg and Spoon by Gregory Maguire, a fantasy novel that caught my eye when I …
Technically, I never really left… Or, at least, I continued writing. However, since my blogging has been, well, less than par for a while, I’ve decided it’s time to get back into the swing of things. I’ve already scheduled the Magic Monday post for this month, and plan to schedule …
At long last, another post about my trip to Ireland! During my visit, I visited a number of different beaches with my grandfather as well as some friends of his (and my sister, when she was home from school and after she finished her semester.) One of them was Kerins …
