I got the acknowledgements, author's note, and dedication for Rugosa out to the publisher last night. Expressing gratitude in public is surprisingly complicated. Patreon blog post for subscribers:

I made my deadline for the new edition of Tales from Rugosa Coven! Still on track for a release date in August. Also I had some thoughts about writing, especially the old advice to "murder your darlings." A public blog post:

"Fun, and clever, and I like it, but..."
Hey, an editor of global and earned importance enjoyed something I sent her!
I get all the best rejection letters. More in a public blog post.

A deleted scene, posted for Patreon subscribers. These two characters' relationship develops much faster in the current version of the book than when I wrote this scene. I still like it, but it no longer fits.

In praise of my alpha reader, the friend who has read every draft of every scene of every novel I've started since 2003 — and how his advice is changing my approach to the trip I'm about to take for the #WorldFantasyConvention in the UK.
