Writing

I’ll be appearing in the upcoming anthology Qualia Nous 2 from Written Backwards and Michael Bailey. This is a dream come true, not only to work with Michael (who you may already know from the popular Chiral Mad anthologies), but to appear alongside such illustrious company as Stephen King, Chuck Palahniuk, and Gabino Iglesias, to…

Horror author Michael J. Riser updates with a blog, new horror art throughout Bookruptcy, and some news on his editorial position at Screen Rant.

What have I done?! I could hear myself screaming internally as I looked at the sea of files in my Google Drive. I have so much shit that I’ve written, and so much of it consists only of half-finished ideas, a few sentences about a character or setting or plot. Realizing that I was going…

I had used other methods of storage before, some of which had existing file structures associated with them that I had backed up, and then I also had various pieces I had labored over at work (sorry, not sorry) which ended up getting stored in several work backups and then a massive dump of all…

All I want to do is write. Okay, so I know that I haven’t gotten around to finishing writing about my experiences in Japan. Frankly, the last two years and change have been more than their share of rough on me. I did write about the end of my experience here, for the Gilman Experience…

I am guilty of writing about individual bits and pieces of my experience to friends and family, and sharing a few longer stories here and there without actually sitting down and documenting much of anything, and so this post is an attempt to change that.

皆さん、こんばんは！じゃあ、もっと１０日で日本に行きます！本当に楽しみですがちょっと怖くなりますね。フォーマットを変更してみてますね。実はこのポストを日本語で書いているのに、日本語のイントロの後で英語版が来ます。そして日本語版下に現れますね。いいですか？うまくいけば、これはメインページを整理した状態に保ちます。（残る日本語のポストが下に現れます。） Hey guys! Well, it’s only ten more days before I leave for Japan! I’m incredibly excited, but also a little terrified. I’m trying a slight format change here, to lead with a Japanese greeting or intro, then move into the bulk of the post in English, and finish with the same post in Japanese…

私はラッキーですよ。私の彼女はアッシュリーベアです。彼女はジャーナリストと中学の先生として社員だったけど今マーケティングの経営学修士があります。でも彼女の写真はきれいだと思って、彼女がもっと撮影くれたいです！それに私は詩を書くのが好きだけど詩を書く時間がありません。とにかく、先日、彼女が私に「新しいプロジェクトを一緒にやりたいの？」と言いました。そして「詩撮影」というプロジェクトは生まれました！ 私が詩を書いて彼女は私の詩に似合う写真を取ります。そしたら彼女が新しい写真を取って私は彼女の写真に似合う詩を書きます。いいんでしょう？ 私は今晩に初めての詩をポストします。今朝にもう書きました。楽しみですね！ I’m a lucky man. My girlfriend, Ashley Baer, was a journalist and middle school teacher, and now she’s got an MBA in Marketing, but I think her pictures are gorgeous and I really want her to do more photography! I also love to write poetry, but I never find the time to…

No matter how many times I tell myself to update my website, as soon as things get busy, it’s the first thing to go. Never fails. Maybe that’s because I already have too much other writing work to take care of? I don’t know. Frankly, I don’t need to question it so much as I…
