After a bit of a hiatus, I'm opening back up for picture book critiques in the new year. Looking forward to helping writers at different stages of this weird (sometimes frustrating) journey develop and craft fabulous picture books.

Feasts are used to bond nobles and commoners together. Traders go far away to get spices. Other people do certain horrible things for sugar. There are harvest festivals as well.

#BonApriltit DAY 5
What role does food play in your society? Do your people consider it a handy way to bring folks together? Are there festivals dedicated to food? Wars fought over spices? Religious ceremonies centered on harvests? Or is it just sort of there?

"The history of men's opposition to women's emancipation is more interesting perhaps than the story of that emancipation itself."

Amazon let me give away digital copies of the memoir I wrote about doing trail work and wildland firefighting.

Free to download on Kindle through Saturday.

Enjoy!

My path to emergency management and paramedicine began with a transformative summer clearing trails and fighting wildland fires in the Rocky Mountains. I wrote a book about these experiences a few years back. Hope you enjoy it. Let me know what you think!

It's an editing while watching Adam Family kind of night.

Goal is to get chapter 9 and 10 polished ~

Hey #writers, want free therapy?

Write yourself into a scene & then have another character (also you) argue with you about something important. Hash it out in dialog and watch yourself rationalize and minimize, and then have other-you point it out.

It's like magic.

#WIPSnips The word for this last day of March is APPRECIATE

The Triempery series is both #epicfantasy and #politicalfantasy. This snippet is an example of the latter. The Khelds are a marginalized people--and in this bit Robdan explains how that works. #WritingCommunitiy #WriteSky

If you use Amazon KDP to self-pub this is a gr8 vid on the pros/cons. Book distrib is chgng fast and KDP is still the gorilla in the room but not the only one. Amazon is the easy road to self-distib, but they screw us all along the road

M/M vs Gay Fiction... I hadn't really though of myself as one or the other, just assuming I write gay romance and it's all great. But maybe it's an important distinction. This was a good read.

M/M Romance and Gay Fiction Duke It Out
Recently Ann Somerville at Outlaw Reviews said of my book Boystown: Three Nick Nowak Mysteries “this is not m/m…it’s not even romance…it’s gay fiction, with male readers in mind” (see review here) …
