Today's my 13 year WordPress anniversary. Wild. I don't think I have blogs going back that far here, but I've been using this account on WordPress for at least that long. And let me tell you, 2009 was a very different time on the internet. Now, I don't want to do a "back in the… Continue reading Blogaversary

#1LineWed – Theme: Sophistication
I mean, villains arguing about moral superiority is a little like arguing about sophistication, right? Also, my newsletter came out today. Check it out!
A Little Inspiration
I'm in a great mood this morning, and I'm doing #FantasyIndiesJune on Twitter (I did okay-ish in May), and I've probably already shared this quote before, but I'm doing it again. My view on these lines from Howl's Moving Castle are steeped in an overall feminist reading (sorry, not sorry, can't help it). This could… Continue reading A Little Inspiration
I Saw Neil Gaiman Speak
I can't believe I didn't blog about this right away, but it was very much like one of those dreams that make you feel hazy and floaty when you wake up like you know it didn't really happen but you have all the emotions like it did, except this was real. So. Words. They're hard.… Continue reading I Saw Neil Gaiman Speak
#1LineWed – Theme: Attempt
I finished the big edit of Throne in the Dark yesterday and sent the final act off to my critique partner. The manuscript still needs work, as always, but it's so much closer now, and this is perhaps the most eager I've ever been to get a book out into the world. Today's #1linewed comes… Continue reading #1LineWed – Theme: Attempt

#1LineWed – Theme: Backward
Here, have a line. Haven't done this on the blog for a while! I am so excited about these books that still need a series title. They're my best ever (as they probably should be since, ya know, evolution and all that), and so much fun to write. Also, I just got back some rough… Continue reading #1LineWed – Theme: Backward
#FantasyIndiesMay – Week 1
I've been posting about Throne in the Dark on Twitter this month under the #FantasyIndiesMay hashtag, so I figured I'd collect all those snippets and lines here too. First, here are the prompts: You already probably know who I am if you're here, but in case not, per day one: I'm Ashley (A.K.) and my… Continue reading #FantasyIndiesMay – Week 1

A #1LineWed Return – Through A
I haven't blogged much this month, but I'm getting back into it. Also, purple. These books are coming along great, and I have a whole scrum board for my writing process now. It's insane. I'm like...a business now. This is what paying taxes does to a lady, I guess.
