Arkem: I’m having a “I’d rather be napping” day. Me: Aw. That was my yesterday. Although to be fair, I’ve only just woken up today and I’m not sure yet that I don’t regret it. The problem with being ridiculously sleep deprived is not that I can’t write. I write just fine when I’m out […]

I’m not leaving town for like three weeks, I don’t understand why my brain is trying to switch time zones in advance. It is driving me crazy. Er. Crazier.

I have this expression. I don’t know exactly what it looks like, but it must be fairly obvious, because sometimes I’ll be standing there listening to someone talk and all of a sudden they’ll pull themselves up short and say, “No. Not like that. Not literally.” The thing is, I understand about context. I do. […]

Getting Your Readers to Take a Leap of Faith

I think that in every story the author gets one official suspension of disbelief. You can have one thing that is totally ridiculous that you’re asking everyone to ignore. Most science fiction and fantasy texts use it for the premise of the story. Aliens are real? Okay. Tiny blonde superhero can ignore the laws of […]
