March 29, 2020 In the Pipe Whether we’re facing a world-changing pandemic, or not, I’m still working. Not just at my day job; I’m also still producing books. I expect to have another book out early in April, perhaps by the first. Specifically, Captain: Falchion’s Company Book Two, the sequel to Boss. Falchion is back,… Continue reading In the Pipe.

Kicking Back. Resurrected Post.
August 18, 2019 Kicking Back I enjoyed a quiet, uneventful weekend. I really can’t complain. After a morning’s work on the sequel to Karl Thorson and the Jade Dagger (look for it in mid-November from Twilight Times) I took MBW and the HA up to a friend’s cabin on the river, near Mt. Hood. And… Continue reading Kicking Back. Resurrected Post.
Work in Progress Status Update. Resurrected Post.
January 27, 2019 Work in Progress Status Update It ought to be clear by this point that I will not have a book out in January. We can all agree on that, right? So, how do matters stand on the writing front? Let me tell you. At the pace I’m writing, the first draft… Continue reading Work in Progress Status Update. Resurrected Post.
At Loose Ends. Resurrected Post.
October 7, 2018 At Loose Ends I am undecided how to proceed Monday morning during my standard writing time. Saturday I took MBW’s car in for brake servicing. Sitting, waiting, and drinking coffee I was able to finish outlining Warlord. That is good. Hearty pats on my own back. However, this leaves me with some… Continue reading At Loose Ends.

January Writing Update. Resurrected Post.
January 21, 2018 January Writing Update “So how goes the writing, Ken?” I arbitrarily determine you are asking. Well, let me tell you, convenient fictional interlocutor. I finished Chapter 9 of the the work in progress. That puts me, I guess, about one-third of the way through. Perhaps closer to half. The story will… Continue reading January Writing Update.

And in Other News. Resurrected Post.
September 3, 2017 And in Other News True, misfortunes may come not as single spies but in battalions. (Or something like that. I’m too lazy to look up the actual line from “Hamlet.”) On the other hand, good news can clump as well. I provided an update a couple of weeks ago on doings along… Continue reading And in Other News.

Ahem! Announcements. Resurrected Post.
April 30, 2017 Ahem! Announcements. I played coy a bit ago, teasing some news. That’s because I don’t like to offer news only to later have to issue a retraction. Now it can be revealed. (Passive voice, ugh. But in context it does read better than “Now I can reveal it.”) Both parties signed the… Continue reading Ahem! Announcements. Resurrected Post.
First Draft Contemplation and Commiseration. Resurrected Post.
December 4, 2016 First Draft Contemplation and Commiseration The way I figure it, I’m three-quarters through the first draft of Boss. If I can press on at the current rate, I should finish around March. How do I feel about that? Glad to be on the downhill slope. I can’t actually see the finish line… Continue reading First Draft Contemplation and Commiseration. Resurrected Post.
Sweltering in Monterrey. Resurrected Post.
June 19, 2016 Sweltering in Monterrey View from my brother-in-law’s house. Two blocks from the hotel on a Sunday morning and Monterrey is nearly unrecognizable. Kilometers of a major thoroughfare — the sort with a shady, tree-lined median and jogging path bisecting it — is closed. Bikers, joggers, walkers, dogs, and children pedaling four-wheelers crowd… Continue reading Sweltering in Monterrey. Resurrected Post.
