Month’s almost done!
And sales picked up nicely–not enough to live on, mind you, but I still have until August’s checkpoint–which is when I’ll know if I can continue on for another 6 months or close up shop and get a “real” job. But so far, sales are slowly improving (I’ll tell you the exact numbers next week). […]
Guest Author, Jason G Anderson and “The Outsider”
Today Jason G Anderson is here talking about his short story “The Outsider.” Jason and I share a lot of similar tastes in book, TV shows, movies, and games. When I heard he was writing a story set in a post-apocalyptic world, I was there! I can’t get enough of stories like that, and Jason […]
