So recently I thought it would be fun to interview artists on my blog in addition to author interviews. Painters, sculptors, really any visual medium is welcome. If anyone is interested in participating, it’d be as easy as emailing me through my website to set one up. I’d send a template of questions like I do for author interviews that are filled out by the artist and then scheduled on my blog (in this case, on Wednesdays). I can’t showcase anything too racy due to the TOS on the blog service I use, but still, I think it would be fun

Writing has been going well. My current WIP is about a bunch of powerful people sent to an ethics class for wronging the gods. The big bad will be an ancient crone called “The Virago” because I thought a fae villain would be fun. The story is not fully formed yet though

I just submitted a short horror story titled “Lookalikes” for consideration in an Ottawa area anthology!

The story itself is about a serial killer struggling with his emotions, which manifest as his own doppelgängers (thus Lookalikes).

Pretty exciting!
