Why Did The Creative Life Choose Me?

October 7, 2025

Why Did The Creative Life Choose Me? Whatever the reason, I’m deeply grateful and exploring that here. Photo by Kit (formerly ConvertKit) on Unsplash I have some amazingly creative friends. My wife can crochet and knit anything she sets her mind to. I’m on a Discord with a group of talented sci-fi authors. One friend does amazing leather work. Another friend does beautiful papercut art. I have friends who make gorgeous glasswork, pottery, clothing, calligraphed

New Novel Release Day!

September 30, 2025

New Novel Release Day! Today, my newest novel goes live. Photo by Elisa Calvet B. on Unsplash As the pandemic locked the world down all too briefly, my employment ended.

Rinse and Repeat: Setting up My Next Book

September 2, 2025

Rinse and Repeat: Setting up My Next Book Sharing the process of turning an idea into a published novel. My sci-fi series (as of the start of 2025). I’ve been writing books since I was 9 years old. Over the next 44 years, I continued creating new stories, exploring worlds of my own imagination, and seeking ways to share them.
