Preparing for Another Farpoint

February 6, 2024

My third year attending the sci-fi con is here. Towards the end of 2021, after publishing 9 books in 2 years, I determined that I needed to start attending more conventions. Searching for cons a reasonable distance from home, I discovered Farpoint Con in Maryland. While one of the predominant themes of Farpoint is Star Trek, they are a much wider-ranging sci-fi and fantasy con. At this con, they have a lot of interesting guest

What Does Overthinking Look Like and What Can You Do About It?

January 30, 2024

As a creative, this can manifest itself in multiple forms. Every creative has their own process. No two writers, painters, sculptors, chefs, or other artists are completely identical. Just like no two people, even identical twins, are completely identical. Yet there are patterns, behaviors, and other elements that are a general background people will fall into to one degree or another. Take writers, for example. By and large, we fall into two main categories –

The Challenge of Balancing Multiple Worlds

January 23, 2024

When you work as a creator on more than one project at a time. As a storyteller, one of the things I take great pride in is my ability to do worldbuilding. Among my already published works, I’ve created 5 different worlds. In two cases, entirely different galaxies. The rules of my worlds have many similarities, but then they veer in different directions for various reasons. The fantasy world of The Source Chronicles has its

AI: The Elephant in the Room We Can’t Really Ignore

January 16, 2024

Generative AI is a new tool you can use or avoid; but ignore it at your own peril. There have been many books, movies, and TV series where rogue AI played or plays a part in the downfall of the human race. Sometimes they simply confound us (Hal in 2001: A Space Odyssey), sometimes they enslave us (The Matrix), and sometimes they destroy us (Terminator). Artificial Intelligence, designed to better our lives, instead ruins them.

Can I Still Run with Half an Idea?

January 9, 2024

Half an idea is better than no idea. About 6 months ago, I had a vague story idea pop into my head. This would be a return to fantasy after working on a lot of sci-fi the past few years. The idea had to do with a world featuring humans and another sentient race (based on the Dragonborn of D&D, but with a different name for many reasons). There would be a little magic, mysticism,

Making Changes to the Workspace to Help Clear the Mindspace

January 2, 2024

It never ceases to amaze me how interconnected everything is. Empirical evidence has shown me that certain changes to my physical body impact my mental, emotional, and spiritual health, too. Losing weight, increasing muscle mass, and improving cardio-vascular fitness leads to finding calm, balance, and contentment more easily. Eating healthier helps me feel clearer and better connected to my inner being. Every time I’ve taken such steps, though the initial action might be blah, the
