Dark, soulful tales that haunt long after the last page.
My August 2008 contest is closed, since it’s after midnight on Sept. 1 now. And the winner is … nobody! Not a single person submitted answers to the quiz. For the past week I kinda figured somebody would take a shot, get one question right and win the prize. But … nope. Was it too…
Yesterday (well, technically, the day before yesterday now) the Oklahoma Sooners "hung half-a-hundred" on the Chatanooga Mocs at Owen Field. And I was there. For half of it, anyway. My oldest daughter’s best friend’s dad wasn’t using his tickets and gave them to me. I have very few male friends around here who like football,…
Pretty good session today, despite a horny dog and a pack of kids trying to eat all my kids’ lunch food. 4,445 / 60,000(7.4%) I’m requiring my Creative Writing students to write and polish a 3,000-word story by end of this nine-week period. It’ll be the major part of their final test grade. In that…
I teach English at Western Heights High School in Oklahoma City. I’m the sponsor of the school’s book club, too. We recently got school board sanctioning to have the club and an expense account, but they didn’t give us any seed money. We’re looking for ways to raise money without any money to spend. To…
I just wanted to say that I’ve made the decision to honor my contracts with Bad Moon Books. I asked Roy some pointed questions that I believe he answered honestly and fairly. Based on that, the fact I’ve already signed the deals, and … other things I’ve learned, I will not be pulling my books.…

Just recording last night’s progress. 2,893 / 60,000(4.8%)
I got an e-mail from Roy Robbins, publisher at Bad Moon Books, today. I’m forced to make a decision, and I’m not sure which way to go. To put it in perspective, Bad Moon is slated to publish Little Graveyard on the Prairie this fall and The Prometheus Syndrome in April 2010. He sent the…

Finally! After two false starts I have a beginning I really like for The Girls Nobody Wanted to Date. One chapter done and a little on another. 1,497 / 60,000(2.5%) Today was interesting in my creative writing class. I came up with this idea to shock the kids into paying attention and really absorbing what…
