0Update
It’s been a while, so I thought I would let everyone know what I’ve been up to and what I’m currently working on. Aside from playing video games, I’ve been thinking about various stories. I have notes on a number of things, including a sequel to Supernal Dawn, but more and more stories keep fighting their way into my thoughts,...

Role-Playing Makes You A Bette...
I’m actually ahead of schedule for my serial, so I thought I’d write a blog post. I’m a fan of tabletop role-playing games like Advanced Dungeons & Dragons and Savage Worlds, so it shouldn’t be a surprise that I tend to write my own campaigns. One of the hallmarks of a good Dungeon / Game Master and player is the...

The War Golem Web Serial
As posted earlier, I’m continuing work on The War Golem. You can find it on this site on the menu under Serial. It’s an ongoing story with mature content and strong language. It’s not recommended for young readers and is typically not the sort of story I work on. I’m also not writing this the way I would a novel,...

Writing isn’t about waiting for a muse to fill your head with words, forcing......

A quick look at Facebook to answer messages and reply to posts doesn’t seem like it would take much time, but every minute spent doing......

Writing Hurdles
There are times when I manage to write myself into a corner, and it’s time to think my way out. Fun times, for the reader. Me? Not so much. I’m sure it happens to other writers, when a cool idea becomes a burden to be carried or morphs into a measuring stick. They’re great, if you can pull it off,...
