Hello readers and welcome to the inaugural post of my fledgling blog. The first thing I’d like to do is something a writer must always keep in mind, regardless of content: set expectations. In an epic fantasy that might be pairing the protagonist’s backstory with a complimentary quest, in a mystery it could be laying out a killer’s pattern that the detective should know how to follow. In romance… we all know the expectation there.

As an author with only a few published pieces under my belt I’m not in a position to give expert writing advice, though being more than halfway through my MFA I could probably give some valid pointers. The purpose of this blog will instead be to highlight what I’m currently working on, promote what’s coming out, and to talk about books.

I’m going to go out on a limb and say that if you’re reading this, odds are you like to read. So do I. So do a great many people in this crazy world we live in. So let’s talk about it. Between writing, class, and family, my time is limited, but I’ll try and put out weekly posts, alternating in some capacity between talking about my writing and talking about others’.

Thank you for finding your way to this tiny corner of the internet and I hope you enjoy yourself.
