Creating A Buffer
I’ve been horribly inconsistent lately. It’s finally winter in the South and I’m getting a cold draft through the hole in the wall that led to one hell of a chest cold I’m still battling. I’ve also got one book to push out the door in the next couple of weeks and another book in…

Book Delayed
Hi all! I’ve recently been away from my online homes, working on trying to push out the second book in the Four Horsemen series in accordance with my goals for the year. Unfortunately due to a bit of an error involving Scrivener for Windows, Dropbox and multiple machines – I’ve lost the vast majority of…

Goals
Every now and again I feel it’s vital to recite my goals and put them all out there for the world to see. That way I can use the goad of the probable humiliation involved in failing to reach these goals to keep myself slogging through the jumbled muck of all the voices in my…

Rock, Hill, My Poor Back!
So I’ve done it. I’m a writer! Except I don’t make any money (I really need to change that) not many people are reading my book (I’ve got to fix that) and somewhere in the midst of all that I have to find time to write even more and improve my craft. Why hello giant…

I’m On Vacation!
Writer’s write. Yeah, yeah, you’ve heard it about a million times before. It’s still true. Here’s the thing no one tells you about this particular truism – writer’s write, even when they don’t want to. Right now I’m supposed to be on a much needed ‘break’ or even ‘vacation,’ time for me to do about…

Her father is rarely home, her mother finds comfort only in the bottle and…

Announcing “Ash of Ambitions” & Lots More!
Well I was planning on something altogether more spectacular than this but upon completing the first draft of the new book, my old illness started acting up and all my big blazing plans have unfortunately been slowed down way off schedule. That doesn’t mean there’s nothing to announce and celebrate though! That’s right ladies, gents…

Second Guessing
Sometimes I wonder if I’ll ever get back to a level that I can be proud of as a writer. I keep trying though. All those years of sitting on my hands and hoping that I would figure out how to do it only made things worse. Second guessing yourself is the worst thing you…

I’ve really got to find time to post more updates more often but today’s a start! Till then, here’s a sample of the books page below. Death The scariest unknown…

Updates!
It’s been a long time since I’ve written anything for this particular blog. It still feels phony as hell writing here about the process of writing and publication. So many more knowledgeable people are already writing on the subject and what do I have to say to add to the discussion? Not much really. I…
