I am pushing on through the edit of my current historical novel. I and my heroine are in a similar position, thrashing through the underbrush as we both labor to reach our destinations. I can see I'm going to have to print out another draft once this edit is finished. Then I'll go in with the machete and come out with the scalpel.

I'm reviewing for Tangent again, only now I'm writing for the online edition. The 90th Anniversary issue of Weird Tales is about to hit the stands! It is wall to wall great fiction, poetry, and more.

As if I wasn't busy enough already, I am learning the fine art of flash fiction. I've sold stories that were 750 words max, but now I'm going for the 500 word limit. Complete story, two complications, meaningful ending. My education in this art forms comes to me from Holly Lisle and the excellent educational materials at her site.

Hi there. I've been pushing hard on the major edit for the Japanese romance novel. I cut it back quite a bit and changed a lot of the last third of the novel, so it was intense work. Now I'm going through for the "consistency edit" to make sure everything lines up properly from beginning to end. I still have to do some editing to bring the manuscript under the 400 page limit.

I've been reading a lot, so look for my reviews.
