NEW NOVELLA! ‘Night-Worlders,’ the continuing (published) adventures of Gav and Cho!

May 9, 2018.Reading time 1 minute.

I can acknowledge that, for further ventures, I should probably create a slightly smaller image… but for now! The cover! Handcrafted in Texas, USA by your very own Dion Overtoun! What does it cover? My new book, Night-Worlders, available on Amazon right now! It stars Gavin Statzis (of staunch morals and highly questionable judgment) […]

‘Dark Skies’ Announcement

May 9, 2018.Reading time 2 minutes.

After much consideration, I have decided to take Dark Skies Over Brightwater down from the Amazon Kindle Store. Past this point, it is no longer purchasable. I will be reworking the manuscript into a series of shorter books that will be uploaded as a series rather than one long novel. A couple of thoughts […]

The Swamp and the Stone Wall

April 5, 2018.Reading time 11 minutes.

Cajoling gave way to pleading which, in its time, evolved into something just short of blackmail. Ronnie wasn’t surprised that it got so bad. She hoped at first it wouldn’t, that eventually, Bill would get tired of pounding his head against the stone wall of her denial and just let it die. He had pretended […]

Art, New Twitter, More!

March 9, 2018.Reading time 2 minutes.

Presenting ‘Adelaide,’ after Alphonse Mucha’s ‘Autumn,’ done in 1896. Since Addie is an Autumn Sidhe, I thought that was the most appropriate piece to base her off of. There are other symbols throughout, but hey, if you wanna know more, you should probably just go listen to ‘Yours to Keep,’ the game she’s in, at […]

Duets with Dice and ‘Yours To Keep’

January 30, 2018.Reading time less than 1 minute.

You know those roommates I’m always talking about and going on rad adventures with? They’re doing a Changeling the Dreaming duet game and posting it to YouTube! What’s that got to do with me? I’m the artist on the team! I’m doing the images for each session, the banner on their YouTube channel, and any other […]

What Do These Losers Even Look Like

November 14, 2017.Reading time 6 minutes.

Maybe it’s a hold-over from when my primary occupation was ‘artist,’ but I obsessively search for face models for all of my characters. It used to be so the features I drew were more varied and grounded in reality. Now… I suppose it helps with visualization, though more often than not I think in sentences […]

Mountain Road

November 13, 2017.Reading time 5 minutes.

My mother and I had a vacation together after I published ‘Drosera.’ We roadtripped from Central Texas to Santa Fe, then up through the Colorado Rockies back to Texas. It was nice, and I have a lot of good stories from it. We were up high in the Rockies. The roads there are pretty […]

At A Gas Station At 3 AM

November 12, 2017.Reading time 10 minutes.

Midnight came and went sometime when I was sleeping, slipped right past me while I dreamed. My blankets were heavy and wrapped tight around me, the way they ought to be, and the house was quiet. The only thing moving was time, rolling over all with irresistibly gentle steadiness. O (the roommate you’ll recall from […]

Updates! NaNo and Site Pages

November 11, 2017.Reading time 12 minutes.

I sure did let the site get away from me, I tell you what. But I’ve completely updated my ‘Written Work‘ section with all the pieces currently on the blog. Sorry about that, everyone. It’s better now! In addition, NaNo isn’t going super well for me. It is my first time ever doing it, and […]

Inktober 2k17 Gallery

November 2, 2017.Reading time 4 minutes.

Now that Inktober is well and truly over, it’s time for me to post the gallery! I didn’t make the full 31 illustrations, but that’s okay, there’s always next year. This was a good year for inspiration, and rather than feeling stressed or worn out by it, I feel refreshed and ready for NaNoWriMo! I […]
