New Domain and Exciting News!
Exciting news! First, I finally decided to spend the money and get myself a domain! Instead of oceanewrites.wordpress.com, it's now oceanemcallister.com.

Hitting the 50K Mark
I first began to seriously write last December. I had this great story idea; it was all coming together beautifully in my head. What could go wrong? Then I began to think. I had never finished a story -- let alone more than three chapters of one -- up until that point. How was this… Continue reading Hitting the 50K Mark
