Today I started revision on Book 3 of the Salmon Run series. The book needs a bit of work, but I was pleasantly surprised during a recent read-through that it’s not as rough as I originally thought it was.

And it’s the stuff that comes after and before a first draft that has been occupying my time. Revision of “Into the Forest Shadows,” the SF Little Red Riding Hood adaptation, is progressing at a good [...] I’ve been writing ever since I could string letters together to form words, and it’s never stopped since.
