I sometimes feel as though I lead a double life. On the one hand, I am MJ Blehart, writer. I seek writing jobs and to further my reach as a published sci-fi, Steampunk and fantasy author. Further, I blog three times a week, with an occasional extra (like today’s political rant). On the other hand, I am Malcolm Bowman, Brigantia Principal Herald of the East Kingdom of the Society for Creative Anachronism. Voice herald, fencer,
It’s fun to break away from the typical story tropes. For years I have wanted to write a sci-fi “space opera”. An epic along the lines of a Star Wars or a Star Trek, but as unique as I could make it.

As I worked on the novel I first called Seeker of The Source, my characters took on qualities and identities I had not entirely expected them to.
Welcome to the new and improved MJ Blehart. I have been saying for some time that I would update this website. After giving it a lot of thought and consideration, here it is. This is still a work on progress as I develop the site. Welcome to my worlds, and please enjoy! Please note – all writing and photographs are ©MJ Blehart. Please do not use any of this material without permission.
I have even more blogs for you to enjoy. Please visit my original blog website:
I post here twice weekly about my work with Positivity, Mindfulness, and Conscious Reality Creation. I’ve been blogging every week, without fail, since the beginning of 2012.
Mondays – Positivity (and related ideas for making choices and decisions in life).
Wednesdays – Pathwalking (my philosophy for consciously choosing how to live your life mindfully, on your terms).
