I kind of wanted to make it a novella sandwiched between my second and fourth books, but I guess I had more to talk about on the subject of #christmas than I had originally intended. And yes, no #aislop ever touched this story. This is 100% #human slop. #novel #arizona #creosotecanyon #jackdinero #youngadult

#WordWeavers 4/6 Can you create a character/place/storyhook/device on the spot, if you need to? If so, share an example.

I reckon attending the monthly meetings of the Birthplace Museum writing group helps keep me on my toes. It’s even better when you don’t know the prompt in advance.
