The League

Gooooood morning, readers! There’s just one day left until ‘Nightingale’ hits the shelves! Well, the virtual shelves at any rate – real shelves will come once you lovely people start leaving reviews. I’ve got one more excerpt to whet your appetite. You can read more about Magnificent and her crew […]

Nightingale Release Date Announced!

Well damn, looks like I only have a few months in which to lock myself in a heuristically sealed control room with my DVR and some Cool Ranch Doritos and catch up on Arrow! CW has announced that The Flash is going to bow on October 7! I love what […]

So now that the cat is out of the bag, I’m sure you’re wondering what Nightingale is about. After all, “superhero novel” is a rather nebulous moniker. (Note to self, create villain named “Nebulous Moniker” for next story.) And I’ll get there; but first I wanted to tell you a […]

Nightin-what? On Creating a Universe

So about three months ago, a friend of mine (the illustrious Jennifer Minchin) told me about a Twitter hashtag contest: “You’re writing a book, right?”“Yeah.”“You should submit your pitch to the #PitMad tag on Twitter.”“OK.” At which point I promptly forgot about it until after the contest deadline had ended. […]

Please Allow Me To Introduce Myself

So I find myself with some time in-between stages of my current WIP and I’m faced with a problem. I’m starting a story and I have an idea where it fits in to my universe as a whole; but I don’t know what piece it should belong to. Should I […]

What’s This?

When I started this whole novel writing process a little less than a year ago, I only had the slightest of ideas what I wanted to do other than “just finish.” Now I’ve got over 44,000 words, with more stories still untold, and things are starting to get…interesting. Stay tuned.

20k! Woo-hoo! Reached a milestone in my first League novel today. The last time I hit 20k on any work of fiction that I wrote was…well…never. Let celebrate by serving up a portion, shall we?__The “room” that he had led Alyson to was actually her supervisor’s office, wide windows with […]

20,000 Words Reached!

The Asian leaned against the doorway of the Hall of Dinosaurs and watched as heroes got chewed on by a rampaging T-Rex. Green, scaly – it looked like her little brother’s rubber toys. Hell he’d probably even set it upon his Magnificent action figure at some point. That was likely […]

DS is one of the earliest characters to come to me as I started piecing The League together. Where exactly he fits in to the retinue is something I’m still working on. He will be making an appearance; but he’s not ready for the full spotlight yet. In the meantime, here’s […]
