I wanted to give everyone a quick announcement this evening. Well, a few actually... First off, I managed to finish and turn in my Middletown Apocalypse 4 story. This volume moves the action to a music festival. The dangerous Phoenix Virus, from my series of stories, begins to creep out into the populace, far beyond …
A New Era and Some Issues
Ah, the smell of a new office. It is nice to be able to begin working in my new space in the house. For my entire writing career, I've been at a small table in our bedroom. I'd sit in my chair and work in a space barely large enough for my PC and a …
Why isn’t it fall yet?
The country feels like the depths of Hell at the moment. Power grids are so overloaded they may fall under the stress of air conditioners. One minute in the sun will singe your eye lashes or boil your blood. The west is on fire and the east is under water. If you aren't cooking in …
Happy July 4th!
Happy birthday, America! I want to wish everyone out there in the US a happy and safe 4th of July. Don't drink too much and don't blow your hands of with fireworks. Be safe and be good to each other. We need people to be cool with one another now more than ever. Editing is …

I am back from vacation and it was sorely needed. The grind of work and pressing to get some writing done left me drained. When I got home from work, the last thing I wanted to do was sit behind the PC and work some more. Sure, I'd turn the computer on and do some …
Writers: Beware of the Investment Gap
This made me think abut my work and how I view it. I've been going through my head and trying to get myself righted again. What do you think? What types of writing do you like and what makes you run away screaming from it?
An Evening With Armand Rosamilia
If I had a father in the author world; it'd be Armand. He picked up my first story and through his press released the original, In Memoriam. We have been in a few books together and have worked with Jay Wilburn and Jack Wallen on the Hellmouth Trilogy. In the process, we have become good friends. I owe a …
Guest Post with D.W. Gillespie
Books I Love D.W. Gillespie With the release of my first novel, Still Dark, I’ve been hit with a wave of excitement that had been a long time coming. Every biography I’ve ever read of the authors I admire suddenly become more relatable than before, even if I’m less than a blip on the radar. …
