The Dead Still Speak
Work is wrapping up on Dragonflies. I've reached the last few thousand words and White Creek is in for a hell of an ending. Once I finish, it'll be put away for a couple of weeks and editing will begin after that. In the mean time, I want to announce the next project. I will …
Being a Plotter vs. Being a Pantster
I'm still not sure which one of these types I am when I write. Do I sit around and sketch out the plot of the book or story? Do I sit behind the PC and let the story flow organically from my brain? Can a person do a mix of the two and still be …

2015 State of the Bookshelf Address
Hello readers, Today I come before you to discuss our year together for 2015. I've come before you in the past and I have brought good tidings and good news. I have typed. I have been accepted and I have been rejected (sometimes on the same day). Hear me, one thing has never changed and …
The Road to Hell…Goes Through Hollywood
They say the road to Hell is paved with good intentions, but in Hollywood it's paved in blood and those personal assistants who you can never quite seem to remember their names.
