Imaginarium 2014: There and Back Again
This past weekend, I made my way to Louisville, KY for the Imaginarium convention. It was the first year for the gathering and it didn't show it. The promoters did an amazing job and the foundation is rock-solid as this con carries forward. I can't wait to return next year. While there, I met some …
Still Alive…
Hey gang, Sorry about the long absence from here, but life has been a blur the past few weeks. I admit, I've barely been able to turn on my computer, much less write or catch up on the things rampaging in my skull. There seems to be a light at the end of the tunnel …

Back to the Grind…Again!
Greetings from a person still getting over going to Star Wars Celebration VI. I may write horror and dark fiction, but as I warned you before, I'm a huge Star Wars fan. SO, I'm going to throw some pics up and get on with life again. First off, I met Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker), saw …
The Journey: Novella Thoughts pt.3
Ok, let's go. See that guy next to these words? That's me. Well, 35 pounds heavier, but I assure you it is me. See that one book in front of him? Now it would be 13 anthologies with him. And now the solo stuff is coming. The pic is from Horrorfind Weekend in 2011 where I read …
