Radio Silence

The Shrew officially apologizes for the radio silence on this blog.

I have been working on revisions to my novel and writing to pay the bills. Haven't had much time for blogging.

In the coming months, however, things will be picking up!

In the meantime, check out my friend's debut novel: Broken Gods by Jason Vey! Congrats, Jason!
