Ship in a Bottle Release and Author’s Note

I’m going to go ahead and say right now that you shouldn’t read this post until you’ve read Ship in a Bottle, because we’re going to spend almost the entire time talking about the ending.

The Arch, the Centering, and the Keystone Release and Author’s Note

The Arch, the Center, and the Keystone is fairly different from most of what I write, befitting an experiment.

Charmers Author’s Note

Charmers is my first professionally published story (I should really add that to my author bio), which I am very excited about, even now.

In My Defense Release and Author’s Note

This is the story that received an honorable mention in Elegant Literature's "World Builders" issue several months ago, and after a lengthy internal debate, I decided to post it directly to IGC Publishing instead of seeking out other platforms for it.

Charmers is Published!

My submission to the March Elegant Literature contest "Gambler's Grief" was accepted for publication and is available to read now.

Blood Magic S3:E12: Balancing Act, Part Two Release

Did I do it? Did I stick the landing on this three-year series, some three hundred sixty thousand words of story? Only you, dear reader, can answer that question, but I think I might have done it.

202212.28202212.22 lloydearickson Continuing Projects, Projects, Series, Short Stories

Blood Magic S2:E12: Pifecha, Part Two Re-Release

It might sound from those two paragraphs like I don't think this story is any good, which is not true - it is quite enjoyable, for all my above griping and critiquing.

Blood Magic Season 3 Bonus Episode: A Spiritual Journey Release

Is this doing that thing that authors are always accused of, where I fake readers out with a character's 'death' only to have them return later? Not exactly.

202211.30202211.23 lloydearickson Continuing Projects, Projects, Series, Short Stories

Blood Magic S3:E11: Balancing Act, Part One Release

It's finally happening: the series finale, the last Blood Magic story. This is where we see if my efforts to improve my endings have paid off, because I don't only need to satisfactorily conclude a two-part episode, or a season, but the entire series that you've been following for three years.

202211.15202211.09 lloydearickson Continuing Projects, Projects, Series, Short Stories

Blood Magic S2:E11: Pifecha, Part One Re-Release

I didn't have many changes to make when I sat down and did revisions on Pifecha's first part, which is mostly a good thing - it means that I wrote a good story in the first place.
