Hey. I figured I’d just post the link to the recipe I mentioned below. I should probably start doing this whenever I post pictures of food, but since it isn’t my recipe and I didn’t alter it, I didn’t want to pass it off as my own. So, Kate, and anyone else interested, here’s the

It seems that all of my recent posts have been about rejections and bread. Guess what. This one is no different. So, I had a couple of rejections. One was from Raven Electrick for an old piece that I thought I would try sending out again. I think there were other rejections, but I can’t

Okay, so the whole “bad things come in threes” didn’t really work for me this time, since I just received the fourth rejection in a row. But that’s okay. Really. I received a 26 day rejection from Chizine http://www.chizine.com/ for my 100 word drabble, “Lost Little Girl.” The reason it is okay is because it

I received a 1 day rejection from Raven Electrick http://ravenelectrick.com/ for a flash fiction piece. She suggested sending another one in, so I did. Hopefully it will have better luck.

As you know, over the past couple weeks I have been experimenting with making fresh sourdough from scratch. Though I’ve had some trouble getting my wild yeast starters to give sufficient rise to my dough, I have started to proof another batch tonight, with the hopes the the resulting dough will rise. I have gained

I recently found out that my story, http://www.mydevilswork.com/issues/1.11/index.htm “The Plumber” has gotten a recommendation for the HWA’s Stoker Awards. To be truthful with myself, this doesn’t mean too much, as I’d have to get many more recommendations to get anywhere near the top of the list, and only the top-recommended stories become “nominated” for the

Well, that was quick. Christmas flew by, and now New Year’s eve and day will go just as quick. Sorry I didn’t take pictures of the Fish Dinner, but things were hectic enough without me stopping every few minutes to snap pictures. On the sourdough front, my first loaf was a failure,. mainly because it
