Another day, another week, another year – and I’m still not doing a great job keeping my site up. Shrug.
But… 2024. Let’s talk about that!
Writing
Sold a couple of short stories. Can’t talk about one of them yet, but the next one out is going to be in NECRONOMI-ROMCOM (Romance. Laughter. Tentacles… Welcome to where Mythos Meets Cute). It’s a story called “The Loveseat” and I had a lot of fun writing it.
I’ve also completed (after many, many revisions) a King in Yellow/Lovecraftian novel called A Queen in Amber. Once I get some feedback on it I’ll figure out what the hell I can do with it.
Beyond that, I’m in the midst of more short stories and I’m going to jump back into my occult detective novel I’ve chipping away at for years.
Running
Lots of races planned for 2024.
Frozen Ass 50 – Did this one a few weeks past on a thankfully not freezing ass day.
Hidden Oasis Ultra – New’ish race in Cyprus Hills in June, should be fun.
Devil’s Ladder Ultra – Another new’ish race, this one on Vancouver Island in July.
Lost Soul 100 – Done this race half a dozen times now and it’s always (well, almost always) amazing. Last time I did it it poured rain and the race turned into a loop race of terrible mud and pavement, ugh. Looking forward to returning to the old stomping grounds in Lethbridge in September.
Life
Settled into the new house. It’s lovely place out in Okotoks right off the river. After the last few decades in Calgary, it’s nice and quiet and has tons of room for all my books.
