We’ve had some lovely fall weather in our neck of the woods in southwestern Ontario. Our small greenhouse is happily producing kale, carrots, and radishes and I’m getting ready to plant fall garlic outdoors. Still finding time for some writing, though, which brings us to . . .

What I’m Working On
Progressing on some short story ideas, while continuing to read up on
plot and structure.
From a review standpoint, I just finished reading an electronic copy of Julie Czerneda’s Mirage, Book 2 in the Web Shifter’s Library series. It took me a few chapters to get into it, but after that I found myself drawn along by the plot. I also very much enjoyed the humor. Will start on the review after I clear up a couple of others ahead of it in the queue.
Just started Archive of the Forgotten, second book in A.J. Hackwith’s Hell’s Library series. Having read Book 1, the characters and settings are familiar. Looking forward to getting further into it.
Coming Soon
I have four poems
slated for publication in Stellar Evolutions, an anthology of stories
and poems from the first fifteen issues of Polar Borealis Magazine. Stellar
Evolutions should be available for pre-order starting October 15th, and
available for purchase on October 31st. In total, the anthology will include 21
poems and 23 short stories selected and edited by RainWood Press Publisher Rhea
E. Rose.
Until next time . . .
