New Books: audio-, friend’s, and February

Today brings three very different book announcements of different kinds. First, Apocryphile Press is bringing out an audiobook of The Falling Tower on Audible, with an AI reader** (one imitating a British woman, to get Charles Williams’ accent in the right general part of the world)! I’m a written-word-preferring human myself, but I know audiobooks […]

The Falling Tower is live!

As of last month, Apocryphile Press has brought out The Falling Tower (available as an ebook and a paperback on Amazon and elsewhere), my Charles Williams-inspired novel in which Charles Williams himself (or, at least, his postmortem poetic Voice) is a character. I am also — almost — a character, in that at least two […]

Out of Tales and Of Evernost: Experiments in Fantastical Theism

There are many ways I could start today’s post, but let’s aim for the concrete and immediate: I hope to bring out a book this year (intended release date 7/15, but I’m vacillating: do I need more revision time and fallow time to deepen and strengthen it? will I give into convention and look for […]

Yet Another Reappearance with High Hopes for the Future

Wow, it has once again been a while! The advantage of this? I have a lot (a lot) of material to catch up on. I’m going to touch briefly on a lot of things in this first post, and hope to expand on some (perhaps even all) of them in future weeks. First off, I […]

Of the Firebirds

My adventures on itch.io , begun in May, continue: I have released a new, free, browser-playable (if play is the right verb; “browser read/watch/viewable”), ~1000-word creation on itch: “Of the Firebirds.” If you’ve checked out my Four Zines of Elsewhere, it’s the second zine in there (but with special effects and music I wrote and […]

2022, a Year (Relatively) Lost to Social Media

I have tried and failed to come back to regular blogging so many times it’s getting embarrassing. But persistence (especially against one’s own flakiness) is worthy, and so — in time for the new year — I hope to make another push to write every week. In the meantime, I would like to talk a […]

As Promised, NEWS — a New Self-Pub — and Self-Publishing in General

For those curious about the general sort of thing I envision Evernost becoming, I offer Four Zines of Elsewhere: an ebook on Amazon (paperback coming soon, I hope!). Here’s the link. Over the past few years, I’ve put together these little hand-sewn zines (if that’s the right word; it seems imperfect, but a lot closer […]

Redbubble Live: Openeyeddreams

I’ll keep it quick today, because I am riding a wave of Evernostian inspiration, but: my Redbubble account is now live! For those of you who don’t know, Redbubble sells merchandise printed with artists’ work (tee shirts, masks, dresses, bath mats — all sorts of things!); it’s free to me and I make 20% off […]

Redbubble, Reading, Planned Next Posts

I’m back, ish. I fell behind on my reading and even further behind on my writing about it during quarantine (I got absorbed in fiction projects again). Still, I’ve read some good books, both virtuous and fun, and I hope to write a bit about what I’ve read as well as my projects. I left […]

Back for Real, reading list

Hello! With all apologies for my continued absence (I’ve been hard at work on my projects….), I am back, I hope, for real, though promises are dangerous. First, a brief update: last year, after my poetry class, I undertook an ambitious summer plan that worked tolerably well, and finally worked a lot on Evernost, which […]
