Welcome to the official Bill Bunn author site!

It’s just a good habit, right? Writing every day for a sustained period of time, regardless of how I feel. I post on Twitter just because it’s a kind of accountability.

So yes, it’s time again to do two pages a day again. I’ve got two stories I’ll start with and hopefully complete, and then we’ll see where things go from there.

Here are the rules I work with (create your own if these don’t suit you):

1. Write two pages every day — that’s 500 words (Unless you’re a poet). The goal is not perfection. The goal is two pages of a crappy first draft. Quantity, not quality.
2. Write six days a week.
3. Take one day each week off.
4. Write 2 pages a day until the last day of June, 2022.

Here’s to the words ahead!

Okay, okay. I’m late. Again. Every. Single. Year. This time, I was prompted by a friend as I was thinking I would do my two-page thing, but not post anything. But, for the sake of accountabiliity, I will post.

After a hiccup, we’ve finally settled on a launch date for my new book, Out on the Drink. February 1. Mark your calendars. I know I’ve marked mine. The launch and reading dates will be forthcoming. I can’t wait to smell that new book smell once again!

Artist Jeff Delierre has done it again. He’s the same artist who did the revised Duck Boy cover, and the Kill Shot cover. What do you think? It makes me cold, just looking at it.

The a draft of the story’s out. It’s up on Netgalley. Before Biting Duck Press begins its editing process, it opens it up to those who may be interested in the story. I wanted to invite any and all to read, review, and comment on the text.

It’s aimed at teen boy readers. It’s the story of an alcoholic boy in Grade 11 who ends up drifting across the North Atlantic in an abandoned Russian cruise ship.

So if you’re up for it, follow the link below. The publisher and I would be happy to take your comments and suggestions before we begin the final editing process.

The ink on the contract is dry, so it’s confirmed. Bitingduck Press will be publishing my latest YA adventure Out on the Drink this year!

I’m thrilled to be working with Bitingduck and their team again. Looking forward to bringing this project to life!
