Newsletter July 2017
I think Rough Trade is going well for me but I'm very comfortable in the episode format so I didn't expect it to be much of a challenge on that front. I essentially failed to pants though--I had to stop and plot as to avoid driving myself crazy. I'm writing episode 5 and I'm enjoying the change of pace I've plotted for this one.
Newsletter June 2017
My brain is all over the place and my writing is certainly been impacted by it. I mean, seriously, I think one word another comes out of my mouth or gets typed out. It's crazy and I know a thing or two about "making insane".

I'm a fan fiction writer that occasionally dabbles in original work to fund my hobbies (this site and Rough Trade). I love fandom in general and the writers who populate it for the most part. There are exceptions, of course, and I don't shy away from saying so.
Only members can comment on the site and currently membership is closed. No exceptions will be made regarding this policy so don't bother asking. I may reopen memberships in the future, subscribe to my site to get updates on that.
Unsolicited beta is not tolerated on my site and if you persist, it will get you banned from commenting. This is my little spot on the Internet and I don't have to tolerate anyone or their foolish behavior.
