Work Outs: August 1 – 7, 2021 (“The Kraken” and other liquid libations.)
I reached my 50% editing goal I set for myself last week with The Lost Librarian’s Grave. My new goal for this week is 75%. I recently edited two ocean/water-based stories,* and was thinking about them when we happened to swing by a Whole Foods down in Santa Cruz** to grab some miscellaneous groceries and…

Writing Prompt #6: Book in a Tree
Originally posted on Redwood Press: Today’s writing prompt comes from a hike we recently did where I found a book stuck up in a tree, which I thought was a little unusual—especially since it sat there for three weeks.

Work Outs: July 18 – 24, 2021 (and Castle Ravenloft Board Game Session)
It was nice being able to enjoy a little gaming again with three friends and this time it was the Castle Ravenloft D&D board game where I had an excuse to use a dwarf I painted more than a year ago now. We’ve been playing the scenarios as a campaign, and this time it was…

“Valhalla is a Lie” by Benjamin Thomas chosen for The Lost Librarian’s Grave horror anthology
Originally posted on Redwood Press: Don and I are pleased to announce that Benjamin Thomas’ excellent short story, “Valhalla is a Lie,” will appear in The Lost Librarian’s Grave anthology. As Benjamin says himself, nothing like a “little valkyrie-inspired wasteland horror due out right before Halloween!” We agree, nothing says Halloween quite like murderous valkyries.…

What The . . . !
Originally posted on Just Needs Varnish!: My wife found this method of creating a special breakfast on a YouTube video, so we had a go at making it (well, she did, ’cause I’m pretty useless in the kitchen)! Buy an uncut loaf of bread. Cut the top off, hollow it out and then butter it.…

Started new site for Redwood Press
I’ve been working on a site for Redwood Press, which is going to be the name we publish under. I plan on continuing to post writing updates here but I wanted a separate place where I’m not also talking about miniatures, working out or recipes. My husband and I made a long list of names…

The sense that I’m getting is the gargoyle cover is the most popular of the original three both from the comments I’ve seen on this blog and from running them by people I know, who don’t read the blog. So I did some tweaks over the weekend on the gargoyle covers and this is what…
