One of the scariest things about putting your writing out there is the question of whether the parts you love the most in your story will have as much impact on your readers. Seeing this reaction to one of the big twists in West of Apocalypse thrills me.

I won NaNoWriMo Camp by increasing my WIP to over 55,000 (my first goal was 70,000, but I am chronically ill & disabled, have to be kind to myself). Want to read the synopsis, blurb, & some scenes? https://open.substack.com/pub/theremightbecupcakes/p/i-won-nanowrimo-camp-2023-d... I also started writing with my friend Bob Ford (see book above) and we are up to over 7500 and cranking, w/ an accompanying playlist, & having so much fun. #amwriting

My first horror short story contract. “Holly Jolly Christmas”, a parody of Hallmark and Lifetime Christmas movies, where a perky, pretty woman inexplicably saves Christmas for a small town, will be in the upcoming two-volume short story anthology Monsters. I will keep you updated. I am so proud and excited! Cover and TOC reveal as soon as I have it. #amwriting #author #publication #horror

pickThat was a roller-coaster scientific Las Vegas heist ride like none I have ever read before. Weir‘s slow-burn setup crescendoing into a high-octane mental chess match was superb.
