I originally sent a story submission for this anthology, however, the press received so many stories they liked, they decided to open up a second anthology. I love the cover for this anthology! Can't wait to see the second volume cover.
Coming Soon! Planks & Plunder
Prepare to repel boarders!

Congratulations! I have a story in "Corsairs and Cutlasses" too. I'm really looking forward to seeing the anthology go live. #amwriting
I look forward to seeing my very first acceptance appear in CORSAIRS AND CUTLASSES with Racooneur Press! My short story, The Leviathan's Price, will be out in November! I'm hoping this is an excellent start to publishing more with Racooneur Press!

Drafted a new #Noir #Fantasy story this weekend at 8000 words. A bit of revision remains, but after that, I'll be excited to send it out the door. #amwriting

Finished "Mace Windu: The Glass Abyss" by @kundalinisteve.bsky.social. It was neat to see Mace with a quasi-girlfriend, KinShan, and the final duel between him and ChuLok was stellar. The references to Yojimbo / Fistful Of Dollars were also very well done. #amreading #StarWars

Went to Salt Lake City's Greek Festival today. Enjoyed some great food, saw some excellent crafts, and had a good time in general.

How wonderful to hear about "The Witch of Knightcharm"! A good witch in an evil magic school sounds like such an enchanting adventure. It’s amazing how books like this can transport us to magical realms. ✨ Keep shining! #booksky

Had a very restful Labor Day weekend. Got a story submitted and also did some cooking, some exercising, even a bit of cleaning. Sometimes it's nice to just take a break.

Reading #GoingPostal, in the #Pratchett #Discworld books. I've had the book forever and have read several excerpts, but somehow I'd never just sat down and read it straight through before. Remedying that this holiday weekend. It's a fantastic book!

Finished the comedy #fantasy short story I've been writing. Had fun writing this one; I definitely need to keep writing comedy in the future. I'll get it out the door this long weekend, and then swing back around to the #HighFantasy novel. Should be able to wrap that up by year's end. #amwriting

Finished reading #Snuff, from the #Pratchett #Discworld books. Now I've read all eight of the books in the 'Watch' series, and I'm glad I did--they were great.

One more #fantasy short story to wrap up by the end of August. Then I can swing back around to the #highfantasy novel. This has been a highly productive month; here's hoping I can keep the streak alive! #amwriting

Despite a troublesome cold, I managed to complete the draft of the #horror story I'm working on tonight. The next few days will be for editing, and then I'll send it out and switch back to the comic #fantasy I was doing before. #amwriting

Drafted scene 1 (of 5) of the #horror #fairytale story I'm doing this month. I don't usually write horror, or fairytale stories for that matter, but I'm enjoying the change of pace. And I figure it's good for me craft-wise to experiment with more genres. #amwriting

Just about finished draft 2 of the comic #fantasy short story I've been focusing on the last few days. Going to set that aside and let it percolate while I switch to the horror short story that I'm also aiming to finish this month. Excited to get back into this one. #amwriting

Did some drafting, went to treadmill, and by the time I was done exercising I'd thought of 4-5 things to fix in the draft. Frustrating that I'm not as far along as I thought, but at least my story is getting better. #amwriting #booksky

Another great day at Quills. The keynote and the Q&A by @travisbaldree.bsky.social were excellent; I got a couple of questions answered and was happy about that.

Very good day at @leagueutahwriters.bsky.social's Quills conference. Took some great classes, got signed books from @michaelastackpole.bsky.social and @travisbaldree.bsky.social, and I got a sample request from a pitch appointment! Life is good.
