This Is What Finished Looks Like*
July 5, 2012 by Kandace Mavrick
So on… Monday? Was probably Monday. I finished the current draft of book two of Path. Which is brilliant because I have been so close for like two weeks, I kept making progress only to have the finish line move. Something would happen and I would have to rewrite something or there would be a […]
Who Needs Sleep? You Can Describe it to Me Some Time.
June 29, 2012 by Kandace Mavrick
“There is an old saying that those who eat toasted cheese at night will dream of Lucifer. The author of Wuthering Heights has evidently eaten toasted cheese.” — from a review of Wuthering Heights in 1848 So lately I’ve been dreaming even more than usual (which is also code for sleeping even less than usual), […]

Ducklings. News at Eleven.
June 12, 2012 by Kandace Mavrick
Paul S: Okay, so why is a duck? Me: That’s one that’s puzzled the sages throughout the ages. Paul S: My current theory is: what else would it be? Once upon a time I used to watch the end of the news every day because it was on before M*A*S*H. I didn’t pay any attention, […]
