Happy Thursday, Aledan Merfolk! I’m happy to say that I’ve finally made it back into writer-brain, and I’ve finished just over half of Draft Three of StO this week! I’m currently writing a brand new Erie scene, and I’m really liking the changes I’ve made for her. She sounds more mature in this draft, and […]
Happy Tuesday, Aledan Merfolk! Are you ready for 2015’s first dose of awesome science news? Let’s see what the new year has in store for us. NASA works to fix aging rover’s memory problems: The rover Opportunity is starting to have memory problems after more than 10 years of exploring Mars, NASA scientists say, but
Happy Thursday, Aledan Merfolk! It’s a balmy 26F in Charleston today, which kind of makes me want to punch things. I didn’t move a thousand miles south to deal with this kind of weather! Of course, if I were back home in MI the wind chill would be below zero, so I guess I can’t

Happy 2015 Aledan Merfolk! I’m back from my holiday hiatus with a new blog theme that’s as bright and cheerful as Erie the mermaid! After spending ten days in the car travelling to and around Michigan, Hubs and I are back home relaxing for the long weekend. We shook our fists at winter last night and

Happy Wednesday, Aledan Merfolk! I’m happy to say I’m cruising along on the re-write/edit of the first four chapters of StO. The first chapter is finished, and I’m working on the horrible third chapter right now (third chapters are always my difficult chapters). The second and fourth chapters have their fixes plotted out and written

Happy Monday, Aledan Merfolk! Today I have a special treat for you, and it’s actually a special treat that has a lot to do with a special treat I showed you before. You may remember me gushing about this book being dark and twisty when I read it, and since then it’s gone through some

Happy Friday Aledan Merfolk! I disappeared for most of the week because I caught the monster cold that’s been going around (apparently the whole country, because I had friends in Maryland and California and a cousin in Colorado with the exact same symptoms), so if you were wondering why your social media streams were suspiciously

Happy Friday night/nearly Saturday morning, Aledan MERFOLK! I’m happy to announce I just wrote the final scene in the first draft of SPEAK THE OCEAN! It took far longer than I ever expected to write this draft, but I’m hoping it’s stronger than most of my first drafts. I can see plenty of weak places

Happy Friday, Aledan Merfolk! The summer rush finally hit us at work (after all the interns return to school) and I’ve been busy writing writing writing, so I haven’t been on the blog much lately. Except to announce PonyFest14, of course! If you’d like chance to win a custom My Little Pony based on your
