Side Project Complete

Yesterday, I published my little side project.  Confessions of a False Stoic is a collection of short stories and poems, one for each letter of the alphabet. Some were written years ago and have been collecting dust (so to speak) on my computer. Others were penned this year during my break from the fantasy world of the Stewards of Reed.  All were works that flowed easily from my mind to my hand, which I have come to appreciate as being somewhat rare.

Many thanks to Lindsey Alexander for her diligent review, and to Didier Baertschiger for taking the beautiful photo that adorns the cover (and for making said photo free via the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 license).

This was quite a departure from the fantasy writing that has occupied much of my time these past few years, but it was a much needed break. I don't have any expectations that it will do well ... it's just something I wanted to put out there. 

For those more interested in the Stewards series, you'll be happy to know that I've made a bit of progress (though, as per usual, not as much as I would have liked).  My hope is that I'll be at least a third of the way through by the end of the month ... we'll see how it goes with my return to full-time employment next week.
