What’s in a Name?
Here's something that just about all authors either hate or love. Okay, maybe it's more like a love-hate relationship with it. Like a see-saw, back and forth, up and down... I have the love-hate relationship with names. I hate trying to come up with the perfect names for characters, places, creatures, chapters, novels, series... Naming … Continue reading What’s in a Name?
Tavern Not-So-Fancy (Wednesday Words 2.10.16)
Welcome to a piece of Wednesday Word’s flash fiction on Darkling Dreams! A good friend of mine, P.T. Wyant, is doing a blog post every Wednesday called Wednesday Words with a new prompt for a bit of flash fiction writing, just to get in the habit of writing something, anything.

Renewing Excitement
Last night at 2am I spent an hour writing before I headed off to bed. I had only meant to spend maybe a half hour, but as I got into the scene, my fingers were just itching to finally finish it so I didn't stop until I had finished the scene, and coincidentally the chapter … Continue reading Renewing Excitement

New Month, New Start
Yeah, I know, it sounds so cliché, but that's essentially what it boils down to anymore. January actually went pretty decent for me, for once.

Gone But Never Forgotten
So I had no idea what to write about for this post at first. Then at work I got a slight idea on what to write, at least, until I heard some bad news... Now my heart is not in writing anything at the moment, but my commitment to not miss a post has me … Continue reading Gone But Never Forgotten
