As you can see by my playlist, I listen to a lot of hard rock when I write. It’s not necessarily the song lyrics that I pay attention to, but the cadence and rhythm of the song. “Coming Undone” and “Good Man” have pertinent lyrics to what I’m writing. I do know that if anyone ever makes a movie of Grimaulkin<\/em>, I don’t necessarily want anything to do with the casting because I don’t watch TV or see movies, but let me curate the soundtrack!<\/p>\n

I’m up to about 18K words in Grimaulkin Redeemed<\/em>, and wrapped up one of the subplots. The muses are working on how to get me out of a box I painted myself in with the main plot. In the meantime, I’m writing another subplot, and I plan on stealing an idea from Twilight<\/em> (yes, I know, that’s very bad).\u00a0 When you read Grimaulkin Redeemed,<\/em>\u00a0you may not notice. First one who does wins a signed collection of all three (by then) Grimaulkin<\/em> short stories. But I’ll run this contest after Grimaulkin Redeemed<\/em> comes out.<\/p>\n

I’m going to WorldCon 76 in San Jose! We just got approved for a table, so we’re in! I won’t be at the Loof this year (August 11) because I’ll be sending my table display to San Jose for August 15. Hopefully I will get everything back by Columbus Day in October so I can set up at the Autumnfest and Scituate Art Festival this year.\u00a0 I won’t be at Narragansett or the Big E. I may be at RI Comicon in November if I can scrounge up the money for the table.\u00a0 I’m going to try to set up at Richmond and Scituate Farmers’ Markets if they do them again, but not during the month of August. And probably lastly will be the Author Expo in December. I missed last month’s meeting so I don’t know what’s coming up.<\/p>\n

I am definitely going to be at the Warwick Public Library April 21. Come visit!<\/p>\n

Episode 15 of the Dark Mystic Quill is up and ready. Want to get rich? No, that podcast won’t help you with that, but it may help you pay some bills.<\/p>\n
