Working on book two.

In a few days I’m going to be sitting down to start writing the follow up book to Deadlock. It’s been quite the learning experience. Early in my first book, I had my wife read the chapters as I wrote them. When the book was finished she said, “Don’t be angry, but your later chapters... Continue Reading →

Humble Beginnings

Everyone needs to start somewhere. I started at my kitchen table hoping to exorcise my demons. Severe anxiety and depression drove me to a dark place and writing helped pull me out. Two years later I’m no longer plagued by a negative mindset and I have a finished book. Now It’s not a long read.... Continue Reading →

Goodbye 2020

I’ve been trying to come up with something to post for a while. I thought about talking about Christmas and how me and my family are getting ready for it, but there were no good anecdotes to share. So I settled on a year in review. This was a very weird year for me. On... Continue Reading →

Dismissing your fan base

I don’t write to explore the human condition or to point out all the atrocities being caused by large, faceless corporations and/or governments. I’m not trying to start a revolution or cause people... Continue Reading →

Inspiration

Inspiration. It’s that intangible thing that hits everyone from time to time. Most of us recognize it but don’t do anything with it. Some jump at it and start using it but they end up fizzling out just as quick. Then there are those who grab hold of it with both hands and wrestle it... Continue Reading →

Looking Ahead

The holidays are behind us and a brand new year is ahead of us. How are you going to tackle 2020? I’m still working on figuring that out. I’m 90% done with the first draft of my book. Time has gotten away from me. Between the holidays, work and family obligations finding time to write... Continue Reading →
