I'm a geek and a writer. I love comic books, classic movie monsters, everlasting love, old pulp fiction and genres outside of the mainstream.
I write under two names. As Theda Black, I write about men in love with other men. I write fairy tales, urban legends and horror under the name of Klaudia Bara.

The Band Plays On
Signed with Forbidden Fiction today for my truly short story, "The Band Plays On." The story's not romance - it is, however, a non-PC bromance with sex, banter, and drama. It's disturbing, really.

new review for BENEATH THE NEON MOON from Elisa
Very pleased with this one, and thanks to Elisa -
It’s not the first time Theda Black surprised me with her complex characters.

edits editedit
I'm not writing, I'm editing. And editing some more.
I never realized I had so many things sitting around unfinished or as a rough draft. Which is good in a way, because I come back to it cold and can then see the flaws. Which can be enormous. But coming back to it cold isn't always great, like I've leeched my enthusiasm from the project. That happened with Neon Moon and Vampire's Boy, but I built enthusiasm back for both projects as I worked on them.
Talking to C - she said she found nearly 30 projects going on in tv and film for Frankenstein. So the revival is the next Big Thing? Maybe I should write that Frankenstein/Monster story sooner rather than later.

I am inappropriate
This morning, daughter2 is getting ready for school. She's 11. I insist on putting some product in her hair because it's frizzing all over. She sits down with me and I look down and say "underwear," because her underwear was visible. You know how low-rise pants are.
After the hair is finished, she stands in the doorway and looks at me. There's something STICKING from her pocket, jutting out from her abdomen.
"Take that out of your pocket," I say.
"What, it's a marker," she says.
"Looks like you have a penis," I say.
She throws her hands up. "You're so inappropriate!" she screams.
"You don't want people to think you've got a penis, do you? I'm trying to help."
Stomp, stomp. Away from the Offender. Maybe I'm too blunt. It didn't help when I started laughing.
