http://tstate.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Fiction, not life, has to make sense. Sunday, February 26, 2012. Zombie Stories and Chocolate Worship. Because I was asked to write a zombie story. I can't seem to break out of the drama, (or my pathetic need for approval), here's a wee bit of the story I'm currently calling "Samson.". Anissa had no clear memory of rain. Thick clouds of moisture and bolts of thundering white light were specters from her dreams, like the dim recollection of straits and streams time parched of water and life. Fitted with a...

Fiction, not life, has to make sense. Sunday, January 29, 2012. Tuesday, January 24, 2012. A Teaser Tuesday from me. Huh. I know, shocker, right? The following is part of my WIP. Feel free to rip a part:. His boots clicked against the floor and with each step, the water pooled in the marble's cracks, spit onto the stone wall. Monday, January 16, 2012. For the love of GOD stop making excuses. But Thompson's life can be seen as a lesson. A lesson that I've seen far too many ignore. Myself included. So I to...

Fiction, not life, has to make sense. Wednesday, September 14, 2011. It was here, in this valley, among the brambles, flowing stream and cascading play of light and dark, where her spirit sprung so high, so present, that she knew she could almost touch the face of God. Friday, September 2, 2011. Are you as excited to read this as I am? The excerpt is fascinating and, perhaps, I'm behind on 'what's coming' in books, but I'm over the moon for this.

Like the quick slaps of a thunderstruck wave, it hedged forward, onward until she is consumed by its power. It is relentless, like him, like his lust, his power and she can bear neither.

Fiction, not life, has to make sense. Wednesday, March 23, 2011. Review: Pale Demon by Kim Harrison. There are a hundred different reasons why we read. I’ve followed Harrison’s.

I started reading about her protagonist, Rachel Morgan, because I wanted to see what antics the white witch would get up to. I continued to read because Harrison made Rachel real. The ninth book in the. Series, Rachel is forced into a road trip w...

Fiction, not life, has to make sense. Sunday, July 31, 2011. Adverbs, Those Needless Little Buggers. There are many constants when you're a writer. Some days you will hate everything you write. Others, you'll think what you've penned is a lyrical masterpiece and you will question why other mere mortals dare. Well, adverbs, of course. Why are they bad? Well, to the unskilled, they seem like an easy fix, the clearest and easiest path to lazy writing. These little monsters modify verbs and aren't, on th...
