In the last few weeks, I've been going back through and re-reading some of the books I haven't picked up in years. Carrie, was one of these and I didn't realize how much of it I'd forgotten. About a week after I finished reading it again, I finally watched the movie remake and I enjoyed it. …
Can I Believe This Character? Starring Ela Lourenco!
Welcome to the station! Well, the work pile is heating up and the blog tours keep rolling in while I duck back behind the keyboard. The Calling is now finished and is being prepped for being subbed out. I have a few shorts I want to knock out this week, but then I dive back …

Elements of Horror: Starring Joseph Pinto!
Welcome back to the show! While I've been busy playing catch-up with the novels and novellas I've been finishing up and editing on, I've let the site play host to other authors in the genre. Since the theme here is, Our Darkest Fears, I believe it's good to have other thoughts and angles examined by …
The End.
Good news! I have finally finished the first draft of The Calling. It took longer then I expected, but it turned out well. Chronologically, this novella takes place before In Memoriam and will have ties to the White Creek novel I'm about 10k words into. When completed, it forms a trilogy and I can put …

Enter the Imaginarium…
It is now official and I can announce I'll be a guest author and panelist at the Imaginarium convention in Louisville, KY on September 19-21. Nothing beats a weekend of books, beer, and cigars! Besides the schedule, I will have a table and the short story collection will debut there. Looking up and down the guest …
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 …
Let Them Read!
This is me. This is my soapbox. Any questions? Yesterday, while I sat with another author selling books at Evansville Pop Con, we overheard some very disturbing things. No less than five times, we heard parents tell their kids that they didn't need to spend their money on books. Granted, I'm not going to sell …
Revision is a Blessing Wrapped in Terror
I admit I don't know why, but for some reason I'm never satisfied with what I write. After a story is released, I think about how much I'd change or where I would make the flow a little different all the time. At the moment, I'm in my own revision Hell. That's right, Hell for me …
