Projects Update
There's been a bit of radio silence on here the few weeks - I started a new job in January, and while it's been an absolute blast, its also taking most of my brainpower during the week.

I figured this was not entirely unexpected for a single novella lurking in the lost depths of Amazon, so I continued writing the other Episodes. They have slowly but surely grown ... Read more »
