The Maiden Post

Welcome to the my little corner of the Web. Don’t mind the mess.

I’m a newbie to having a website and to this whole blogging thing, so bear with me as I fumble, stumble, or flounder. I’ve often heard that that it’s better not to bother at all than to post infrequently (or drunkenly), so I’ll do my best not to disappear on you for long stretches. Or drink heavily before posting.

First off, I need to thank Gabriel McIntosh for putting this thing together and giving me a playground to romp around in. I’m no Luddite, but if I’d been left to my own devices, there’s no telling how this site would have turned out. Ugly is one guess. Out-of-order is another.

In the posts here, I’ll be addressing latest developments with my writing and publications, of course—new books, covers, titles, the moment the publisher tells me to pack sand because they can’t tolerate my high-maintenance shenanigans any longer. I’m guessing if you’re here, you expect that sort of thing. But I’ll also try to spice it up with musings about other topics, too. Sports. Kids. Corn dogs. Lemurs. Whatever.

So, thanks for joining me here. I’m really glad you made it. I’d give you a grab bag or some schwag or something to keep you coming back, but if you had any idea how much I owe in student loans for two completely unmarketable English degrees, you’d laugh yourself silly.

But I imagine I will be doing some book giveaways or something along those lines at some point down the road. So stay tuned.
