It’s Aliiiiiiiive!
UPDATE 3/31/2016: The two editions (paperback/kindle) have finally been merged! The link has been updated on the Tangled Threads Publishing page, as well. And now, without further ado, I am pleased to announce that Advent of Ruin is now live on Amazon and available for purchase (or borrowing through Kindle Unlimited, if that’s what floats…

Phooey
It seems that WordPress might not actually be pushing my project pages like posts. I knew I was going to need to upgrade my account, but I may actually need to move to self-hosting, as well. So! If you haven’t already noticed, Episode 4 is live. Hopefully sometime soon I’ll be able to sit down…

Wait, Really?
So I was scanning through my news feed on my phone this morning, and I stumbled across an article on Slate called “Is My Novel Offensive?“. Now, this being Slate, my first reaction was to mutter sarcastically something along the lines of “isn’t everything?” But I clicked through to read it. Apparently, in addition to…

The Cursed Throne: From the Pillow Book of Mirumoto Kasumi – end of the Topaz Championship
17 Serpent 1189 Today was the Iaijutsu tournament, the final event of the championship, and a strange day it was. The tournament was going well right up until the quarterfinals, when I came up against Hiruma Tamotsu-san. I saw through him. I struck first. But as I drew my ankle turned. My strike wobbled. Hiruma-san…

The Cursed Throne: From the Pillow-book of Mirumoto Kasumi – the Topaz Championship (part 3)
16 Serpent 1189 Thrilling! Absolutely thrilling. Poor Hikari, though. This morning was the mass battle, where the thirty remaining contestants were pitted against fifty (!) Daidoji Iron Warriors. Thanks to the efforts of Isawa-san and several others, Hiruma-san managed a groundswell among the contestants to secure the generalship. (It should be noted that at the…

The Cursed Throne: From the Pillow-book of Mirumoto Kasumi – at the Topaz Championship (part 2)
15 Serpent 1189 Another day, another disappointing athletic performance from me. I did not even manage the top eight in the race, although I was close. My stamina failed me on the straightaway before the wall, and I could not recover. Then in jiujitsu I fell in the first round to Usagi-san. As much as…

The Cursed Throne: From the Pillow Book of Mirumoto Kasumi – at the Topaz Championship (part 1)
14 Serpent 1189 Noon I have neither excuse for nor understanding of my poor showing in the grand melee this morning. Despite everything, I was caught off-guard by the starting bell, and before I managed to gather myself the Ikoma next to me had grazed me rather impressively. I joined Ryouko and Hikari in the…

The Cursed Throne: From the Pillow Book of Mirumoto Kasumi – a Fated Meeting?
13 Serpent 1189 Well. Thanks to Father I was unable to travel with Ryouko and Hikari. I was annoyed at the time, but now I wonder if the spirits didn’t have a hand in that. This afternoon I reached a checkpoint on the east-west road to Tsuma at the exact same moment as four of…
