I've posted before about why I decided to start sharing my projects on serialized fiction sites like Sequel or Wattpad. Basically, I spent a lot of time in my youth writing fanfic, uploading the chapters one at a time as a finished them, so serialization made a lot of sense to me. It still does, … Continue reading It was nice while it lasted…

Why Wattpad…
I started out my writing career by writing fanfic. If you've been a friend or a follower for any amount of time, this really shouldn't be a shock as I've mentioned it many many times before. I've even shared snippets of those fanfics here and there. Fanfic is a really great way to learn the … Continue reading Why Wattpad…
New Year… New Blog?
It's been awhile. Far too long really. Over two years if you want to get nitty gritty about it. I didn't mean for that to happen. I really didn’t. It just kinda did.

It was official, … Continue reading The Great Move: It Gets Better…
