The Journey II: Mission Completed (sort of…)

Four days ago, I typed the words, "The End" (or "To Be Continued" depending on what happens next) on my first novel, Southern Devils.  What started out as a short story with a very sordid past, finally became the book I hoped it would.  Right now, I'm taking a few days to catch up on …

Is He Dead Yet?

  No, I'm not... But I do feel like it lately. Seriously though, things have been busy here in my dead world trying to finish off a few projects.  I have the novel Southern Devils to wrap up the last few chapters on in the next few weeks, a story set in the zombie infested "Happily …

The Journey II: Out From the Shell

Growing up, I hated to talk in public.  I still do, but I'm more comfortable with it now.  Before I started writing for real, I really just liked to stay locked in my shell and go through life quietly.  Most of this I believe is due to my really bad self-esteem issues.  This part of …

What’s Going on in That Head of Yours?

Sometimes inspiration can come from the strangest places.  Hiking around a local wetland area for instance can give you such nice symbols like the one pictured here.  From the wooden bridge I found this on, I looked out, observed the dragonflies buzzing about, and I stared at the murky water below.  That my friends is …

Eulogies for my Soul (The Zombie Blog Hop)

Due to recent events, this post is different from the planned version. The wind gently whispers through the trees and its light caress brushes against my cheek like a mother wiping the tear from the corner of my eye.  In front of me, the hearse sits dormant by the chapel door waiting for its next ride to …
