So… I’ve been chosen to be a mentor in the adult category for the 2020 Pitch Wars contest. This is something I’ve wanted to do for years, ever since I was a mentee back in 2016. Back then I was a YA writer—my manuscript, which I’ve since trunked, was a YA Horror that over the […]

Bridge Update – September of 2019

by ccharmon 1 Comment on Bridge Update – September of 2019

So I’m 18k words into a new manuscript (roughly 95 pages), and I once again find myself writing about Alaska. I’ve always had a strange fascination with the forests in the Pacific Northwest and any wilderness north of the US-Canada border. I’ve written two manuscripts that feature magic as well as a near-future sci-fi manuscript […]

2018 Update

No, I’m not dead. Yes, I rarely post on this blog. However, don’t concern yourself with whether my lack of inspiration here equates to a lack of inspiration in other aspects of writing.  My habits remain consistent and I’m continuing to fail my way upwards. Hopefully I’ll break the surface one of these days. Dead […]

Part of the joy of being a writer comes from the excitement of watching those around you get book deals and seeing their passion pay off. Times like today are the reason we start writing in the first place! Today, I come ultra-hyped and ready to reveal my friend Lindsey Frydman’s awesome cover for her […]

My First Fan

by ccharmon 2 Comments on My First Fan

Pitch Wars was the first time in my life when a stranger told me they liked the words I put on paper. Even went so far as saying she loved them. Her name is Judi, and she’s been my mentor since August 24th. Two days before my birthday. At first, when the winners were announced, […]

Stuck in Mud, or Running in Place

by ccharmon 1 Comment on Stuck in Mud, or Running in Place

I once met a writer who was working on a novel. She never finished it. This person when I talked to her was working on the first chapter of a book she planned to write. It had an interesting premise, and she already had the plot outlined. I was really happy to hear about it. […]

2016 Update

Hello Blog, it’s been awhile.   There’s a dozen reasons why I haven’t come to visit over the past two years–to dip my pen in those supple, electronic pages of yours–but I’m not going to get into it. It’ll only remind you of the painful loneliness, and it’ll force me to dwell on all of […]

Changing Your Life? You’re Doing It Wrong

by ccharmon 1 Comment on Changing Your Life? You’re Doing It Wrong

You’re at one of the lowest moments in your life. It might be when you’re sizing yourself up in the mirror, realizing how much you hate all of that dough beneath your skin. It could be when you discard that withering butt of a cigarette and stare at it on the pavement, realizing that you’ve […]

“The Measles of Mankind”

by ccharmon 2 Comments on “The Measles of Mankind”

  First we tackled sexism with women’s suffrage in the early 20th century. Then came the Civil Rights Movement fifty years later. Currently, we’re battling with some of the country’s homophobia. What will be next? Our next goal should be to eradicate something that is, in my opinion, worse than all of these. Combined. I’m […]
