Writing Update – March 25, 2025
Oy. Been a while since I posted here again. Let’s change that. So! What’ve I been up to lately? Well, the biggest thing (which you already know if you follow me on Instagram): I finished the Kosan rewrite! Or, well, a draft of it, anyway. But yeah! It’s finally done! And the final word count…

I Re-Read the First Novel I Ever Wrote. I Have Thoughts.
Those of you who’ve followed me for a while know I’ve been doing this writing thing since I was a teenager. That’s pretty damn close to a decade and a half now. You might also know I wrote my first novel as a teenager: I wrote the bulk of it in grade 10, before I…

Writing Update – February 3, 2025
Well, here we are. Writing updates are back. No, I never intended to stop doing these. As I’ve said before, things just kind of piled up for me late last year, and this year I wanted to do a couple other posts before I got back into the writing updates. But anyway. All that aside.…

Reading Review – 2024
Hey all! Hope you’ve been holding up OK this January. I’ve been doing OK, just reading and writing and reading some more and writing some more and…well, what do you know, reading and writing some more. You know, the usual. Anyway, I know I’m a bit late on this, but I thought I’d pop in…

Artist’s Envy
Hi everyone. It’s been a hot minute since I’ve written here. I meant to write more—I swear I did—but grad school is hella busy. Who knew? Sarcasm aside, with all the schoolwork I had to do, all the creative projects I was juggling, and all the responsibilities of everyday life piled on top of that,…

Writing in Chunks
So I got stuck again. I was cruising my way through the Kosan rewrite—had written 10 or 12 new chapters to add to what I already had—when I hit another wall. I won’t go into all the details here: maybe I’ll do that in the next official writing update, or maybe I’ll hold off until…

Writing Update – August 5, 2024
Hey, folks. It’s…been a while since I’ve updated here. Yeah, yeah, I know, I said I’d do it sooner, more frequently, all that jazz. At this point, all I can say is I got caught up in the various joys and stresses of life; this summer has been a busy one, and with how busy…

Writing Update – May 11, 2024
Oy vey. It’s once again been a while since I’ve posted here. Well, in my defence, life has been busy recently, and that’s impacted everything writing-related, including BS&K. Not that I’m complaining, though; Spring 2024 has actually turned out to be a pretty exciting time for me, when it comes to my personal life. This,…

Hard Work Pays Off!
Well, everyone, it happened. I got the editor letter for Nightmares Inc. back! I won’t bore you with all the details, but here’s the skinny: overall, this letter came back a lot more positive than the one for Kosan back in 2022 did! Now, don’t get me wrong: there are still issues with Nightmares Inc.…

Writing Update – March 10, 2024
Alright, update time. As I predicted, this last little while has been busy for me; if you’re a consistent reader here, though, you know that already. My main update this time is I’ve gotten stuck on Blueblood. Or, well, maybe not? Kind of? I’ve stopped actively working on it, anyway. I got stuck on a…
