I’m reading a Kindle book about writing page-turner/suspense tales at the moment (I’m not reading about genres at random… there’s a reason for it All will be explained soon, and it’ll make sense). I’ll definitely use what I’m learning! Suspense can be in the mystery genre, though there are differences. This book describes those […]

I have 3 other versions of the book to complete now for 3 other rule systems.
Better Novel Outliner?
Note that I’m not trying to start a war of words, just asking for opinions: 3 years ago I bought Liquid Story Binder. In October, I plan to get Scrivener for Windows. Both of them enable you to gather together all your character sketches, research and outline for a story in one place. Both offer […]
A Super(s) Possibility
I have been reading comicbooks for most of my life (over 30 years; I’m 45 now). Most of them have been — and still are — superhero books.

This is a difficult choice:
http://ricktheraven.wordpress.com/category/white-zombie/ This anthology is looking for more stories (and the blog uses a similar theme too).

This isn’t […]
Interesting Chuck Wendig Books
; These are available in both paper and Kindle form.
Chuck Wendig
Currently I’m reading 500 Ways to Be a Better Writer. I plan to buy his books about being a Freelance Penmonkey once I make a good dent in my reading pile; having a Kindle app and access to many free books I got a lot! His writing style isn’t to everyone’s taste. He’s very caustic, swears […]
A Surplus of Possibilities
I’m not as prolific on output as I used to be, but I am in terms of what I can work on right now. First comes my contract work, then the next issue of my fanzine (I want to get it done before my next convention. After that I have several things to choose from: […]
