I’m back this week for Weekend Writing Warriors! I want to touch on a bit of a short I did for a magazine last year.

Time once again for weekend writing warriors! This week I’m taking eight sentences from my short story All the Little Things, which appears in the new book Lost in the Shadows! This story is about how little events can pile up on a person, and how little things (appliances, inanimate objects, etc) that we usually take … More WeWriWa: All the Little Things (from Lost in the Shadows)
So since I’m doing a panel at Fandom Fest about the challenges of Coauthoring today, I thought my eight for weekend writing warriors would be from my latest release with S.H. Roddey, the short story collection, Lost in the Shadows. This is from my short The Legend of Shadow Trace, Idea Thief. It’s a story … More WeWriWa: The Legend of Shadow Trace
