So, this is my official blog and short introductions are in order.
My name is I. R. White. I am a science fiction and fantasy writer. [note from July, 2015: since then, I’ve dropped the “I.” and written out the “R.” as “Rilan” — yey for pen names!]
I’ve been writing for a long time and have finished works in two different languages. On the other hand, I have yet to publish any of my stories. A fact that likely has something to do with never having tried to publish anything. But I’ve reached a point in my writing life where I would like to try to take my hobby and warp it into a career. And hopefully, this blog will follow my progress.
To account for any pro-hopeful activity thus far, here’s what I’ve done to date:
1. Submitted “Flipside of Reason” to L.Ron Hubbard’s Writers of the Future contest (WotF) — did not place.

3. Submitted “To the View Through Human Eyes” to WotF contest — received honorable mention.
4. Resubmitted “Flipside of Reason” to WotF in correct manuscript format (I hadn’t researched the correct manuscript format for my first submission) — received honorable mention.
5. Submitted “Scales” to WotF — yet another honorable mention.
My short term intention is to finish the next short story for WotF. I’m also preparing “To The View Through Human Eyes” to submit to Analog and “Scales” will be submitted to Fantasy and Science Fiction Magazine. I also have plans to edit “Flipside of Reason” for language and grammar and I’ll consider sending it to Azimov’s.
On the novel frontier, I’m currently actively working on “Sake of the Pack.” I have just finished, for the first time in my life, a full outline. I’m not sure how writing with an outline in mind will fit around the writing habits I’ve settled into over the years. But after my experience with a nearly finished “All Things Made Of Shadows,” which was written without an outline, I think a good idea about the progress of the story is vital for putting together a readable novel.
