Sorry about the silly title. I was trying to figure out how to combine two seemingly unconnected topics. The first is that I have received a 2 month rejection from Glimmer Train for my story “Enduring at the Edge of the Storm.” I never really expected to break into that market, but I figured it
Well, here it is. I had wanted to take a picture of the actual starter dough, but I couldn’t find a memory card that wasn’t full, and it’s my brother’s camera. I started second guessing my placement directly over the fireplace, so I’ve moved it a couple times now, hoping I didn’t already kill whatever
I took it into my head to start baking sourdough bread. Last night, while watching Alton Brown’s “Good Eats,” and largely due to the fact that he was baking bread, I started to consider creating my own “starter dough.” I am not new to the whole bread baking world, and I have even made a
After my previous two posts, I thought it a good time to talk about the ugliest of all Christmas demons: materialism.

Hi all. I’ve gotten a few messages (thanks everybody) asking about my whereabouts. Well, I’m still here. I just finished my student teaching experience. Well, actually today is my last-last day. I have a few meetings to attend, and I have to hand in some papers and review my portfolio. But after that, oh yes,
I thought I’d post a few updates. Can you believe it’s October? I’ve been trying to make the most of this, my favorite time of year, but it’s hard when I have as much work as I do. I have had time to bake a few of my favorite autumn pies (apple and pumpkin), trying
Okay, I know I haven’t been posting a lot. This has very little to do with writing or horror, but I wanted to get people involved. Do you like the TV show Lost? I sure do. There’s a blog site giving away some cool prizes, and all you have to do is post in the
