Dogged Determination figured that if solving a mystery was like following a trail of clues, she'd be good at it. After all, her nose was fantastic, and she was good at finding things!

She was wrong.

It is done. Dead Sands (working title) comes in at just under 70K. Is it shit? Is it good? Who fucking knows? But it's the first book I've finished in years.

Not only am I getting the typical marketing scams in my email, I’m also getting scam job offers. I don’t want to suggest violence here, but someone should give these people a barium enema

I've said it once, I'll say it again: Machine Head's cover of Hallowed Be Thy Name is kickass.

Still playing Star Rail. Absolutely caught up in the newest act, which is a pastiche of Roman and Greek myth where the characters have to take on the divinity of dying gods.

Hey, I don't post much these days due to all the *waves arms*. But rest assured I'm still writing, still angry, and charming as ever. Okay, that last bit might be bullshit, but c'mon.
