It's a 💩 world, but we still have to live in it.

Living is resistance.

Writer, developing multiple projects and maybe a podcast.

More details soon...
It might not be available for 24 to 48 hours. This is what I get for launching right before a work shift. :'D

Sorry, looks like it might need the Podbean podcast player app installed? 😬 I'm still figuring this out. 😅

I didn't take the time to properly edit, and I kept jumping into a new thing without finishing the prior series (& most every thing I write becomes a series of one sort or another 🙄).

Years and years ago, I finally "got serious" about writing. I became semi-active in an indie authors group on Facebook. I self-published a few books on Smashwords over a few years. My regrets?

So I usually fall around the plantser part of the writing method spectrum. 😁

My method varies from project to project. With Lady in Blue, the inspiration came from such a ridiculously unexpected thought turning a certain way in my head, that if I had stopped to plan very far ahead, I probably never would have even started it.

13 years After Hour Zero, the world has moved on and accepted the new status quo of humanity; there are no more fathers, per se. Within 72 hours of conception, any new non-birthing parent will combust.

Sadly, though the patriarchy is literally gone, there are still many who cling to their systems.

Novel: The Bastard Generation

Tagline: To Father is to Die

One New Year's night, in a single hour around the world, every non-birthing parent (cis fathers & people of various genders) spontaneously combusts, leaving ashes & their skin behind.

Status: first draft, finished; waiting for editing

Cosmic horror eats the American dream when [Genevieve] becomes the Lady in Blue, and that's only the beginning.

Why does [Genevieve] get the feeling her unborn daughter Pollyanna has something to tell her?
