What am I line editing?
This.
When am I line editing it? Right freaking now. Ah, the best laid contingency plans will inevitably involve line edits.

The Best Laid Contingency Plans
This will be a short post. I was going to write something amazingly whitty and charming if just a little smarmy, you know, the usual, but instead I have to bow out quickly today. Currently I'm working on a science fiction apocalyptic novel, a collaborative crime novel and three short stories that are all about due. And then, just when I thought I was ahead of the curve…A fresh batch of line edits. Insert the appropriate suspenseful music here.

I write fiction, a little of everything and a lot of horror. I've written novels, comic books, roleplaying game supplements, short stories, novellas and oodles of essays on whatever strikes my fancy. That might change depending on my mood and the publishing industry. Things are getting stranger and stranger in the wonderful world of publishing and that means I get to have fun sorting through the chaos (with all the other writer-types). I have a website. This isn't it. This is where you can likely expect me to talk about upcoming projects and occasionally expect a rant or two. Not too many rants. Those take a lot of energy. In addition to writing I work as a barista, because I still haven't decided to quit my day job. Opinions are always welcome.
