Last Week’s WW:  Narrative and Style

Sorry that this is a day late.  I meant to post yesterday, but I sat down to finish my edits and formatting on Otherworlders, and wound up at my computer until 5am.  By that point, I was a bit tired and cranky and just ready to be done for the day.

If you have a project, I highly recommend getting an editor.

I can’t imagine how impossible it would have been to do all that work myself.  Honestly, I probably wouldn’t have been able to.  There’s just still many technical things that I’m not skilled enough to know or I am too close to my project to see.

I sent mine off and when it came back it was beautiful.  But that doesn’t mean that I was done with it.    Continue reading →

Sorry that there was no flash fiction this past Friday.  There will be one this Friday.  Recently, I left my old job and started yet another new job, which thus far I like, although I’m afraid that it won’t generate enough $ and I will have to get a second job.  Gotta do what we can to pursue the dream, right?  Beyond, I’m taking a third crack at my book Otherworlders.   Continue reading →

Indiegogo for Otherworlders

Hi all.  I’ve set up an Indiegogo campaign to raise funds to get a professional edit on my novel Otherworlders.  Now a days, agents won’t even look at your work unless it’s polished and practically ready to be on the shelf.  It’d be great if you could take a look, if you could spare a dime, or even if you could just share it with your friends to get the word out.  Thanks!!!

Otherworlders book trailer

So, I’ve decided to go back to work on Otherworlders. I’m going to give it at least a polish, maybe a whole third draft. I’m also considering starting a kickstarter to fund getting a professional edit done on it.

To get ready for that, and because hey, it’s fun, I made a trailer for my novel. I used photos of people that I’ve taken, combined with some stock photos of backgrounds, and compiled them. I also used some stock loops and composed the music. I then wrote and recorded the script. So if you ever wonder what my voice sounds like, here it is! Enjoy!!
