Updates, Updates, Updates

posted on March 2nd, 2010 in News by Bryce Beattie

OK, I’m using this open source package (Scribus) to lay out Micro Flash Fiction, and I’ve given up on it, recommitted to using it, given up, rededicated to it, and so on and so forth. I have a love/hate relationship with learning new software. I suppose Scribus might be intuitive if you’ve done lots of [...]

Micro Flash Fiction Update

Thanks to everybody that had sent in a submission or two so far. I’ve got enough to get started on putting the thing together, but I’ve still got plenty of space I’d like to fill. So if you’d like to submit something, just get it in as soon as you can. I’ll keep you posted [...]

Micro Flash Submissions Extended.

posted on February 3rd, 2010 in News by Bryce Beattie

Ok, so last week I announced that I want to do a little print on demand magazine project. I’m interested in seeing how the system works and how good the quality of the printing is.
I do not have enough stuff to fill a magazine yet, so I’m going to leave the submissions open for another [...]

Submissions are now closed. Thanks to everybody who submitted.
If you’ve been around for a while, you probably know that I love the idea of self-publishing. Well, I recently came across a magazine POD printer. I’m itching to try it out, but I’d like to do a fun, worthwhile project . Micro Flash Fiction magazine [...]

Falling off the (writing) wagon.

posted on January 15th, 2010 in News by Bryce Beattie

All right, everybody. I’d just like to say i’m sorry for not posting anything for a while. At first, I had legitimate excuses. I had one sick 5 year old and one super cranky baby.
Before I knew it, I was out of the habit of writing every day, and so nothing got written.
Anyway, I [...]

Two Quick Items

posted on November 13th, 2009 in News by Bryce Beattie

Ok, just two quick items.
1) The Journey of St. Laurent will return with a vengeance on Monday.
2) I just got an acceptance email for a (hopefully humorous) piece of nonfiction I wrote for the upcoming anthology "The Moron’s Guide to the Inevitable Zombocalypse". Go me!

Ok, I’ve recently got some comments and emails from folks asking me what is taking so long with the “Journey of St. Laurent” updates. I’m not letting the project drop, nor have I forgotten that I’m supposed to be writing it.
By way of whiny excuses, here’s what’s been slowing me down, [...]

Excuses, excuses.

posted on September 25th, 2009 in News by Bryce Beattie

No new chapter today. Other than the fact that yesterday was my anniversary, and therefore had better thing to do than write, last night my newborn stayed up until the wee hours of the morning screaming, and it was my turn to walk her around and calm her down.
However, I’m going to write everyday from [...]
