Under Construction
Under construction can mean so many things, and for me right now it does! First, you’ll notice this website shifting left and right. The main page is no longer the same. Some pages have been added, while others are retired. They don’t meet the… Continue Reading “Under Construction”

The Trials of Writing
Writing is a multitasking sport and I’m failing hard on it. Why, you ask? Because here is my massively neglected blog. My other blog, tied implicitly to my novels, is just as neglected. This needs to change. I’ve been doing a great job of… Continue Reading “The Trials of Writing”
