Progress is Progress

Adopted is up to 12k words. I'm estimating that it might be up to 30k when all is said and done.

Long Time, No Type

I haven't written much since November, thus the lack of updates. The holidays and a new job have made things kinda crazy. What I have been doing regularly is recording and releasing the Dear Editor podcast which I cohost with my sister Vicki. Please check out the podcast!

Now, what I have been writing:
Adopted
(partial first draft, full outline)
Sherry is a teen living in a world where the human population has suffered a serious decline. She lives at the former location of SETI, where an alien probe is being kept. After generations of studying the probe, most of the townspeople don't expect anything new to come of it. Boy are they wrong.
Fishing Line
(partial outline)
Patrick regrets taking a job at the high-tech company The Experience, Inc., but all the secrecy and those pesky contracts keep him from simply quitting. He finds a transport spaceship willing to help him escape, but the deal might turn out to be more trouble than it's worth.
