After just over seven months of weekly posting, Sand and Blood has now been released as a Creative Common novels.

These two chapters focus on social roles and positions between different characters and their relationships.

Life is about failure, it is the only way to get ahead. This week's chapter is about iterative failures. Plus news about Sand and Bone.

This week, both series talk about doubt in different forms: violence and death for Rutejìmo and Kanéko has her questions about her father.

Both serials are at a turning point as we head into the conclusion for both. Also a bit about other books in the Rutejìmo series.

Sometimes, we have a few lessons that need to be taught before all the action starts again. This chapter has a few quite moments.

This week, I introduce the villain of our story, a giant telepathic toad that terrorizes Kanéko and her friends. And Rutejìmo shows that he has a backbone.

Both trios find out a bit of their enemies this week along with revealing secrets for everyone. Plus Sand and Ash is out.

A smattering of lessons, both about death and more cheerful things. We are getting to some of the more interesting parts of both novels.

This week, both Kanéko and Rutejìmo are dealing with the conquences of their action scenes in the previous chapter.

This week, both chapters have to deal with the same topic: fighting in the dark. This shows my love of the specific troupe but both stories go about it in very different ways.

Just another pair of discussions with both serials. I talk a little bit about magical healing and the addiction of power, not to mention conventions that I'm using with other languages and telepathy.

I go to WisCon for a number of reasons, but probably the biggest one is that I go to be uncomfortable.

I've been thinking about Jim C. Hines' post about trigger warnings for a few months now. In the process of re-releasing two books, I decided to do something about it.

After a few weeks of taking a break, I'm back to my serials. This week, we have a bit of introspection and a naming of the Big Bad.

It's been a week since I got back from WisCon, time to talk about it. I should have done it sooner, but I have a few things going on.

In just over a week, I'll be at WisCon on a few panels, doing a reading, and generally having fun.

Not every story has a Big Bad, the evil villain that makes the hero's job miserable. Sometimes the demons are inside the character's head. The chapters this week demonstrate both.
