"What are you writing?"

"What are you writing?" One of my friends at Domino's asked me that question today, so I thought I'd let you all know what I've been working on. As you probably know, I wrote my children's book "Dino-Boy's Adventure" about ten years ago. It was published through a messy process where we paid a "Vanity publishing house" big bucks to print up a bunch of over-priced copies of what I think is a very cute book for kids. Since then I've been working on several projects. My novel "Moral Imperative" is about 2/3 done. It is a futuristic political thriller, that will need a few major rewrites to keep it futuristic. I also am working on a young reader novel called "Their Tears Will Make Them Better". But most recently I have been focusing on short stories. I have written "The Actors' Club" (which has been rejected by both Analog and Glimmertrain literary magazine), but I still have hopes for it. My story "Christmas Dreams" (which you can find in my older blogs from December 2010) has been submitted to Glimmertrain. I have also finished "The Sentry", a short story of my early life from the point-of-view of a tree in my front yard. I will be submitting that to Glimmertrain in April for their Family oriented fiction contest.

Currently I am finishing up "Outpost 63" a scifi story I am hoping to submit to Analog. So for Jessica and Larissa, who wonder what I'm writing, that's the rundown. Hope to have a lot of you as readers soon.
