This is a quick poem inpired in part by Neil Gaiman’s “The Day the Saucers Came” and Jake Bible’s “Dead Mech”. It’s rated PG, but does contain death by zombie hoard, kraken and other foul beast.

Let’s get the bad news out of the way first: My story “Fantasy Cabin” has been rejected from Writer’s of the Future. *SOB* *Sniff, Sniff*
So… I’m looking around for another market which might like it. I’m also going to go through it and give it a little revamp to see if there’s anything else that [...]

Usually I like to say most of my ideas are inspired by authors I admire, which [...]

Last week I had goals. Did I make them? Haha, hehe, hoho. Er… short answer? No.
Long answer, here’s where I’m at (for anyone who cares to know):

Here’s a short poem I wrote a while back… it’s not about fantasy or sci fi, it’s just a short piece about things I sometimes have to remind myself.

I just submitted the story I mentioned in my previous post (Getting Gas) to Tales of World War Z.
I’ve also submitted a story I wrote called “Suicide Note” to Horror Garage.
So, we’ll see how all that goes. I recently lost my first reader. So, we’ll see if I find another good one soon.
I’ve [...]
