Teaser Tuesday: Oh my god, guys, I’m hyper!
Posted by Phoebe | Filed under Uncategorized
Oh my God, guys! I have been incredibly busy! As you know, I recently moved. And so we’ve been getting settled, constructing Swedish furniture, reducing the number of cardboard boxes that surround us. And, on top of that, I’ve been writing! In fact, I finished the first draft of SEAS RUN DRY! (Final word count, [...]

Teaser Tuesday: Family Tumult and Gfilte Fish
Posted by Phoebe | Filed under Uncategorized
Hello out there in internetland! Apologies for my week of absence. Relocation has successfully been completed (unpacking, less successfully begun). The husband and I are now located in scenic Arlington, Virginia. Pictures of our new abode to come when I’m not drowning in cardboard boxes. I have both some work and some interviews lined up, [...]

Teaser Tuesday: Insert Joke about Wetness HERE
Posted by Phoebe | Filed under Uncategorized
I’m getting close to the end of my first draft of SEAS RUN DRY. I’m a little unsure as to how to proceed from here with teasers–there’s a lot of material I could share that would be dangerously spoileriffic. I might start teasing other projects, or maybe a trunked short story or two (any preferences, [...]

Teaser Tuesday: The Story of the First Walker, Part 2
Posted by Phoebe | Filed under Uncategorized
Happy Tuesday, everybody! This is going to be brief–do you know how tiring mentally preparing oneself for a move is? (Never mind the fact that I haven’t packed a single item, yet!) For this week’s teaser, I’m posting the second half of my mermaid folktailtale. You can read the first part here. (Teaser removed)

Teaser Tuesday: The Story of the First Walker, Part 1
Posted by Phoebe | Filed under Uncategorized
Fresh off the word processor (and oh, very unedited!), this week’s teaser is a bit of a stylistic shift. It comes from a story that my merman, Loril, tells his human girlfriend Irene about the first Walker, his namesake. I tried to make this a fresh version of the many mermaid legends that exist–creating a [...]

Teaser Tuesday is a Banana (and is packing heat)
Posted by Phoebe | Filed under Uncategorized
What’s that you say? That it’s Tuesday? Did you bring your coat? Oh yes, right. Teaser time. Irene and Loril (previously) haven’t found his dad yet–but they have found what seems to be his brother. Under a less-than-savory pretext, they manage to get themselves invited to his home. (Teaser removed)

Merteaser Mertuesday: The Merman Problem
Posted by Phoebe | Filed under Uncategorized
Today’s teaser explains some of the mechanics and biology of my mermaids. I have to admit that I winced a bit when I read this excerpt from Hannah Moskowitz’s blog from her current work-in-progress, which also features a merman, and raises similar questions of biology. But, hell, if you’re writing about mermen that do it, [...]

Teaser Tuesday: I’ve Got a Secret (I Can’t Tell You!)
Posted by Phoebe | Filed under Uncategorized
Today’s SEAS RUN DRY teaser comes at a crucial moment in the manuscript. Things have been going pretty well for Loril and Irene: they’ve kissed, spent the night holding one another, and have gone for sushi. But at the end of their sushi date, it starts to rain, and Loril’s hand is forced. The time [...]

Teaser Tuesday: Shopping at the Salvo
Posted by Phoebe | Filed under Uncategorized
A week since my last post? Really? Well, yes. I’ve been writing–I’ve hit 30,000 words on Seas Run Dry!–and brainstorming, not to mention really wrapped up in a certain television show’s finale. Expect an epic blog post about that sometime over the next day or so. But I didn’t forget about you, dear readers! Today’s [...]

Teaser Tuesday: Structure and Sleeplessness
Posted by Phoebe | Filed under Uncategorized
Before I post today’s teaser, I want to talk a little bit about the structure of my current manuscript. Seas Run Dry takes place over the course of a single week. This is true for several reasons–for one, I wanted to try to create a densely packed narrative. For another, I wanted to highly the [...]
