Long overdue

Long overdue

That’s exactly what this blog post is!

As many of you probably know, I went to the Tulsa MOE. That’s why the May spotlights didn’t happen; I just had other things on my mind. But now I’m back, with June spotlights, a directory update, a reading list update, and some new chapters over on Extemporaneous.

I’ve also been talking to someone about hosting her stories, but it’s still in the works. I’ll let you guys now when it’s a done deal.

I know this isn’t much of a blog, but oh well. If you want to know a little more about where I stand, writing wise, right now, check out the blog I just posted on Extemporaneous.

April spotlights bring, uh…

April spotlights bring, uh…

…even more spotlights in May? Sorry, that joke didn’t quite work out for me.

As you may have guessed, I’ve just posted the spotlights for April. They are as follows:

The website, as you might have noticed, is hosted right here on PTH. It’s run by my friend Amber, in celebration of the twentieth anniversary of the band and the fifteenth anniversary of Middle of Nowhere. Can you believe some of us have been doing this for fifteen years? I’ll admit, I only began reading hanfic in late 2000 and writing my own in early 2001. But I still know all of the old classics and the tropes they contained. In this challenge, anyone who signs up will receive writing prompts based on those old tropes. I’m definitely participating and you should too! Sign ups start very soon.

Speaking of things you should participate in that are hosted on this domain, I’m running a new awards right now, called Blank Page Awards. Nominations run for one more week, but things are a bit slow going right now. If you’re reading this, I urge you to go nominate your favorite stories right now!

And… that’s all for now, folks. See ya next month, and maybe even sooner.

Late but worth the wait!

Late but worth the wait!

I’m so sorry for the massive delay here! Although I finally have high speed internet, it’s only mobile broadband so I have to be a bit sparing with my usage. It is at least more functional, if only for small amounts of time. I’m writing this from a coffee shop, however. And I have lots of updates for you, to make up for my absence!

Firstly, I’ve finally updated the directory, adding a few links and deleting a few outdated ones. On that note, you’ll notice that Diamond has, at least temporarily, taken her website down. You can still read her collab with Jesse-may, Before It Breaks.

Secondly, I’ve updated the spotlights for March, a week late. This month, I’m featuring my new awards, Blank Page Awards, my friend Liz’s story Tiny Dancer and an interview with my other friend Alecia. Fun stuff!

Lastly… the awards! It’s been almost a year since I ran the last round of Thieves and Liars, and although I loved those awards, they had definitely run their course. It was time for something new. So, here comes the Blank Page Awards! Nominations start in a few weeks, so go check it out now and get ready to submit yours. I hope we all have a ton of fun with it!

And I think that’s it for now. I am still updating a few of my stories off and on, so check those out if you like, too.
