All That Glitters is Prose – New Project

All That Glitters is Prose

Well, it’s nearly over. 2020, one of the worst years on record since the 1820s is coming to a close. COVID kept us in our homes and away from our family and friends. As a result, some people’s creative juices flowed like white water rapids, while some partnerships dissolved due to distance and homebound constraints. I found myself in the latter category as my podcast, Demiworld crashed and burned in the absence of time away from a noisy child. One never knows how quiet a house can be in the absence of a seven-year-old.

New addition to our family. Snowy and Thunder. 2020 wasn’t all bad.

As the dumpster fire of 2020 raged, I decided that waiting to start a new project until the world “returned to normal” might be a pipe dream. It was adapt and start creating or forever wait from the elusive right moment. Thus, All That Glitter is Prose was birthed. I have long loved literary analysis and creative writing, so I decided to marry the two. Each month I will post either a short story, a chapter to a longer piece, or a piece of literary analysis to my new Patreon page (follow the link to check out the tiers).

My short fiction will include rewrites of some older stories, fresh shorts, and flash fiction. Literary analysis will delve into the historical perspective of a piece of writing and how the time in which it was written affected it or how the piece affected history. Literary analysis will include literature, speeches, songs, poetry, plays, and more.

All That Glitters is Prose is a passion project I’ve wanted to take on for years. I am so excited to finally announce it and get started on this new adventure. I hope you’ll join me.
