In the works

I've taken a bit of time off from working on Romance with a Croquet Mallet to do a little bit of freelance work at the moment. I should be getting back into the swing of things in the next day or so with that. But I've got about three or four projects either in the works or in the planning stage.

One I've been working on is the book based on my friend Josh Stewart's prose poems. The great thing about Josh's poems is they read like a short story. One of which is appearing in an upcoming issue of Detour called Torture Brothers. I've also been working on the plot to my second Polly and Handgraves story. I don't want to call it a sequel to A Sinister Aura because I see Polly and Handgraves as more of an ongoing series like the shows you would see on Mystery! or one of the shows on the USA Network (i.e. Monk or Burn Notice).

I'm getting help from my cousin Jared with working on the script. I'd like to make the story a little bit darker and I have a few plot ideas that I might have run through a couple stories.

I'm also chatting with Rori about doing a second Sherlock Holmes story. This time an original story rather than an adaptation.

And it's been a while since I revamped my website. I don't really update it very much anymore only because I have the web blog. But it's nice to have a sort of home base where people can check out my work. So, I think it might be time to do a little bit of Summer redecorating.
