You know you’re old when you have to wear glasses to drive now.<\/p>\n
I just celebrated my birthday this Friday. I am officially supposed to be a crone (yep, showing my age), but I don’t feel that way. I write YA stories, speculative fiction, not tedious memoirs and cozy mysteries. I listen to hard rock from the 1990’s and 2000’s (Turbo and Lithium on Sirius XM). I play video games. I don’t feel my age. Go figure.<\/p>\n
Episode 11 of the Dark Mystic Quill podcast should be up by the time you see this. It’s about altars and what goes on them. There’s also a cameo appearance from Tom, my cat.<\/p>\n
I’m still writing Earth<\/em>. I’m feeling the time crunch. I have some scenes in mind to put in, but they’re not sex-related, they’re story related. I don’t know if what I’m writing is erotica or a story with explicit sex. The sex is not what drives the story, the paranormal elements are. Oh, Water<\/em> is going to be an audio book, and the narrator is wonderful<\/em>. That, hopefully, will be available soon.<\/p>\n I got the cover for Grimaulkin Redeemed<\/em>, and OMG…it’s beautiful. Just what I pictured. Now I have to write it. But I’m not going to write it until I get to War Mage<\/em>. The publisher said he doesn’t think I’ll end at three books. I might not. But that’s all I have in mind, and I can’t see myself going something like ten or fifteen books like the Dresden Files. Eventually, you get to a point when both you and your readers are bored. Though I’ve had Grimaulkin around for ten years, so I\u00a0 don’t think I’ll get bored with him anytime soon.<\/p>\n So, in the meantime, I get to yell, “Get off my lawn!” and be official about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" You know you’re old when you have to wear glasses to drive now.
