This was a major goal to reach – what I do next is an interesting question. During the height of the pandemic in 2020, I determined that I needed to write and publish more. In 2020, I published 3 books – the first two novels of my Void Incursion series; and a standalone fantasy featuring an alternate take on the hero’s journey via the villain’s journey with Infamy Ascending. But I decided I could do
I believe that my writing offers something valuable on various levels. The things that we do all have value to someone. Sometimes they value only ourselves.

This is my take on how my writing tells a story. When it comes to the how of storytelling, I think most people consider perspective and tense first. Is the story told in a first-person or third-person perspective? Is it in past, present, or future tense? But how you tell a story can cover other bases as well.

This is exciting because reaching the ending of a series is new for me. Back in 1997 or so, I was sitting at my desk at my job with nothing to do. What work I had was done, and I had created as much other work as I could come up with. (At the time, I was the sales manager for an itty-bitty audiophile record label).
