More older art to post here. Trying not to spam it all at once.
Velocity started as just a Sonic genderbend, but ended up being an alternate universe Sonic with lore of her own.

Old art of my couple from First Flight. Psy needed more of a black color scheme, but I'll figure that out if I ever draw them again.

Finally came back to this account. Likely going to rebrand it for my writing and art.

I've decided to go in a different direction with my writing. As much as I longed to make money from my writing, that's no longer the path I wish to go down. I'll instead be posting my works to Ao3 so I can attempt to enjoy writing again. I don't know if I'll continue to update this account.

Draft 4 of First Flight complete. Now on to the final draft, where I put my beta reader's suggestions into practice to make the best story I can. No ETA on completion, but that's fine.

Sorry to those expecting First Flight soon. I’ve decided I would rather release a polished product than a rushed one. As much as I’d like to follow Amazon’s algorithm and push out content, it isn’t the right path for me. I’ll let you know once the story is published and available for purchase.

I now have a tumblr for my writing. I can't promise frequent updates, but I thought the blog was still worth having.

Going to be setting up a Tumblr side blog for my writing in hopes of drawing in more fans.
Also hoping to have First Flight published in a month.

I've been reading books about writing romantic short reads for Kindle and I'm learning a lot. A common trend does make me hesitate. Self-editing instead of peer review or formal editing. It seems to work, since folks are getting out their books faster, but it's unlike anything I've ever heard of...

Finished the draft for First Flight today and sent it out to my beta readers. Waiting for them to read through it will be hard, but I'll do my best to be patient.

An update.
My superhero romance is near ready to send to beta readers. I just need to fix up one more chapter, then it's good to go.
I also went through two drafts of a fairytale-inspired fantasy short read. It's only starting to get the right tone on the third draft, but that's progress.

After avoiding my superhero romance draft like the plague, I finally sat down and read through it. It wasn't as bad as I thought. Needs some work, but it's manageable. I've started edits today. First two chapters edited. Eight to go.

Started my new draft from my outline today. It’s a fairy tale-inspired fantasy about breaking past expectations. First chapter came out…short. Only about 900 words. I imagine it’ll get longer in the editing process.

Started a new project today. Aiming for just a piece of short fiction, about 50 words, but it would be the start of the series. The outline ended up being 1,484 words.

Can anyone recommend any short (>100 pages) books on writing short fiction? I don't mind if it's about novellas, novelettes, or short stories. I just want to learn more and don't have the time to sink into a longer book.

I used to think I wanted to write novels. Most authors do. But, these days, now that I’ve given short fiction a try, it’s really all I want to write. Novellas, short stories, novelettes - doesn’t matter what you call them, they’re my favorite things to read.
