Writing the good fight and hopefully not writing wrongs!

This is the sister website to Ian Wood's Novellum where I used to blog book reviews, but since I reached 5,000 reviews (give or take), I decided to retire from reviewing. I'm still reading; I'm just not gabbing about what I read anymore. The time I save on not reviewing any more books, I'll expend on more creative pursuits. I'm thinking-up ideas for stories far faster than ever I can write them so I really need the extra time. Either that or another six hands, three more brains, and three more computers.
Anyway: this is the place to come for updates on my novels, for rambling about writing them, for sneak peaks and sample chapters, and that's been taking shape. All of the children's, middle-grade, young adult, and adult-oriented novels I've written are available on Apple iBooks, Barnes and Noble, and Google books (hereinafter referred to as the Titular3). I refuse to do business with Amazon or with Kobo Books, so you will never find my novels there.
Pygmy Lion is completed at 94,000 words, and is published on the Titular3! This novel has a loose tie-in to CHiPR, but it's an independent stand-alone novel. I'm seriously considering writing a series of independent novel-length stories about the classic horror creatures, such as vampires, mummies, werewolves, and so on. I'm already well into my very first werewolf novel: 47,000 words and counting. Off we go again!
Marvel's Collapsing Universe my first and probably only non-fiction work, is now available on the Titular3 platforms. It's an amateur fan's look at what's wrong with the MCU, and how it might be fixed. Full of observations, insights, humor, anecdote, and critique. It covers everything right up to Agatha All Along (or it will when that series is completed and I update the book!). It will be updated every time a new movie or TV show is released.
On the topic of the Little Rattuses™, it's been a while, but I've not given up on them. A while back, I bought pens and sketch paper in preparation for some sort of an assault on more of these stories, and I've already done some drawings for the next volume, but I've been much more focused on getting novels out lately. Rest assured that their stories (the Little Rattuses) will continue before so very long. You know what they say! Where there's a Rattus there's a way. Or vice-versa.
Now I have to get back to writing! Writing! Writing! Keep your pencil up!
