Today’s Blog Tour Stop for The Autumn Lands

Cate Ashwood

Today I’m stopping by Cate Ashwood’s blog to answer some interview questions – Thanks Cate! How do you think your writing has developed since you started? Oh, it’s gotten much better. I first started writing when I was in fourth or fifth grade. I wrote on and off until my early twenties, when I finished my first novel. When it and five or ten short stories were all rejected, I kind of lost momentum, and though I tried to come back to it several times, it never really stuck. Somehow, though, I had this idea in the back of my … Read more

Another Autumn Lands Blog Tour Stop

Skye Hegyes Blog

I’m so excited to be stopping by Skye Hegyes’s blog today – she’s a great friend and we have an anthology project together with Brandon Witt and Gus Li, coming out later this year from Wilde City. For my visit today for The Autumn Lands, I thought I’d share five things my characters learned during the story: Don’t Kiss and Run: Seriously, if you ever find yourself in a small town and a stranger pulls you into an alley to kiss you, at least get his name before you take off running. Your libido will thank you later…. See the … Read more

Another Autumn Lands Blog Tour Stop

Wicked Faerie

Thanks so much to Chris at Wicked Faerie’s Tales and Reviews for hosting my blog tour. For this one, Chris asked me to talk about my inspiration for writing characters: Thanks to Chris for welcoming me to Wicked Faerie’s Tales. Chris asked me how I come up with my characters and storylines. I had to stop and think about that. I’d like to say that they just come to me whole-cloth, but that’s only happened a couple times, and both of those stories were very short. As far as creating characters goes, it tends to be really organic for me. … Read more

My Next Blog Stop for The Autumn Lands

Jamie Fessenden Blog

My friend Jamie Fessenden is hosting today’s blog tour stop for The Autumn Lands: Thanks for letting me stop by your blog to talk about The Autumn Lands, my latest novella that released yesterday from Mischief Corner Books. It’s the classic story of boy meets elf, boy and elf run away from village where boy grew up, jump into a river, cross through a forest and a bunch of hills, and end up somewhere neither one could ever have imagined. Jamie asked me to do something a little offbeat for this posting, so I cast my two lead characters. For … Read more

“The Autumn Lands” Blog Tour Kicks Off

Drops of Ink

And we’re off! My first stand-alone print novella “The Autumn Lands” releases on Wednesday, and the blog tour started today with a stop at Anne Barwell’s blog, Drops of Ink: Like many of my stories, it started with the smallest germ of an idea. Back in the nineties, I tried to make a go of writing, and started a bunch of stories that I didn’t finish. One of these was a snippet about a gay kid running through his village after being kissed by another boy for the first time. I had just come out, and was exploring gay themes … Read more

More Stops on the Blog Tour

Bayou Book Junkie

Hey all, The “Travels Through the Scarlet Equinox” Blog Tour rolls on… The Bayou Book Junkie featured a great guest post from Freddy: The hardest part for me as an author is finishing the story. Not because I don’t want to. Life interferes more often than I wish it would, but it also has to do with me as a writer. The best thing you can do for yourself as an author? Finish the damn story. It puts me in quite a conundrum then. I know what I need to do for my stories. I have plot points I know … Read more
