Short Fiction

After a heavy project at my “bill paying job” and my laptop breaking when the project ends, it feels great to get back my passion of writing. Those who may ask “couldn’t you write with a pen and paper” have never seen my handwriting.

Now that I am finally back to writing, I have started to redraft the novella The Indebted. When I finished the first draft I thought I would have to completely rewrite the story. As I have re-read it and started on the second draft, I am happy to have discovered that I do not need to do a complete rewrite. There are scenes that need to be redrafted, but not an entire re-write.

I hope to have this story out the door after it goes through my normal multi-draft rewriting process to make it a stronger story. Then it will be on to more poetry and more stories.
