So it's been a long time, like a LONG time, since I've done anything with DA at all. It's actually kind of weird to have this account around, still. I think I want to keep it, but ... yeah. It's weird enough having samplings of my life from college forward floating around the interwebs; I can't quite imagine what it'd be like for people, say, 10-15 years younger than me to hit this point and find their entire lives have intersections with the online space here and there. Anyway: so I mentioned, like, ten years ago that I got an agent for a novel I wrote. It didn't sell, sadly, and it took a very, very long time to not sell. I wrote some other stuff. Eventually I wrote something in a very different vein that turned into a Middle-Grade sci-fi adventure story stuffed with all the stuff I loved to read when I was, say, 11 or so.

So yeah, I haven't really put anything up in forever, but I am in fact still alive and stopping by once in a while, even yet!

The only problem for me with DA is that almost all my creative output has been novelses for a while, now, plus some 3D printing projects I'm not ready to share. Bye for now!

Howdy all -- thanks for stopping by! I haven't put anything up in a while, and I'm sorry about that, but this state of affairs is likely to continue for a little while yet. I got an agent for my novel in January! It's a big deal for me, to be sure, and I'm ecstatic to be moving forward with the publishing process.  On the other hand, I'm also knee-deep in revisions right now, prepping the manuscript so my agent can start pitching it to publishers, and that's sort of like a second full-time job right now.  Work all day, get home, write until bedtime.  It just means some things are falling through the cracks for the time being, like changing

Thanks for the devwatch James!
happy birthday again
Hey, thanks.
happy birthday man

yall still alive?
Thanks!  Yep, still alive, just focused very (VERY) much on writing projects for the past year or two -- what little art I've been doing, I can't share here right now.  Hopefully that will eventually change again when I get more time to work on art projects.
