I mentioned back in early November that I had two stories coming out in two different anthologies. The first of those anthologies was titled Lucky or Unlucky: 13 Stories of Fate. I thought it would be fun to talk with Nila White who is the editor and publisher of the anthology. So on today’s show, Nila and I discuss the anthology and what went into its production. I also have to apologize. Things are pretty crazy and, as you might be able to tell from my voice, I’m sick. There won’t be a Tips and Typos section in today’s episode. Still, the conversation with Nila was great and is worth listening to. Enjoy the show. Show Notes 00:00 — […]

I Have a Story in a Second Anthology This Month
Writing is often about luck and I know I’m VERY lucky to have stories appearing in two anthologies this month. The first story allowed me to revisit a character I’ve written about before. This time is different. It is a brand-new character in a genre I’ve enjoyed reading but had never written before (I liked the character and enjoyed writing the story enough that I think I will be doing more of the same in book-form later on). So, without further ado, let me announce that Dirty Magick: Los Angeles (from Lucky Mojo Press, edited by Charlie Brown) will be available as an eBook next Friday (November 15th) and in paperback nearer the end of the month. I think the […]
Read moreI Have a New Story Out in the Anthology: Lucky or Unlucky? 13 Stories of Fate
A few years ago I wrote my first Charlie the Apprentice Wizard story called, oddly enough, Apprentice. It appeared in the very first issue of Flagship eMagazine published by Flying Island Press. Ever since that story came out, I’ve wanted to write more Charlie stories. When I heard about the upcoming anthology, Lucky or Unlucky? 13 Stories of Fate, I knew that it was time to write the next one. So, I wrote a story titled, The 13th Spell featuring Charlie once again. I submitted it for the anthology and, I’m pleased to say, it was accepted. The anthology is now available in multiple eFormats for $0.99. As the title says, it includes 13 different stories. A bargain, if I do say […]
Read moreGet Published Episode 120 – Leah Crichton, Wattpad Success
The road to writing success is a varied one and on today’s show I talk to Leah Crichton about how she has found success via Wattpad. I’ve been interested in Wattpad for some time and, because of Leah and my friend Aaron Kite, I decided to take the plunge. You can now find Boyscouts of the Apocalypse in its entirety up on Wattpad. Just search for Michell Plested and you will find it. Leah and I had a great discussion, which I am pleased to share with you today. I also talk about a workshop I’m planning for school visits. It is about using your own experiences to create stories. I talk about it from a Young Adult perspective, but […]
