I am, honest!
I have a lot of stuff going on, writing-wise. Had it all up here till the site crashed. I will be replacing it all little by little. Just know that I submitted a short story just the other day (as of May 2023) and got rejected 🙁
Now that the story is done, I’ve returned to the urban fantasy novel. I’ll have more on that as the days go by.
(all novels are in work at this writing)
So like they say for Lay’s potato chips, I can’t just write one. For now, I’m working on The Angel Project beacuse I got stuck on The Downing. I worked like heck on The Winged Warrior in my Epic Novel workshop with David Farland and this novel went from OK here’s my story to oh man, this thing is layers deep!

Maybe I expect too much? A little voice in the back of my head says, am I good enough? Another voice on the other side of my head says I’m better than a lot of other writers (not putting down anyone). I dunno how gamblers keep their sanity LOL. And I have more books in the wings waiting to be written! So off I go, typing away!
(Yes, I just had to write the header like that! I’ll be reading Poe this month and analyzing his work, among others. And trying to write my own poetry (cringe LOL). What about you?) Right now, I’m a class on my writer’s group called the Apex Writers Group started by NYT bestselling author David Farland. […]
I am so very hooked on Korean drama on Netflix. I’m truly impressed with the stories, the writing, the characters, and the actors. So, I want to share a few poems on the current show I’m watching. —————————————————- The Poetry In the show: “When The Weather Is Fine”. Small Love Song by Hwang Tong-Gyu I […]
Time buzzes on by while I am not. How can that be? I should be able to stop time and let me catch up. But no. A little silly story for you. When I was a kid, I would stay up for the New Year, waiting for something special to happen. I was always a […]
Sailing the solar winds, trekking the mountains of Mars, I sing with the Man on the Moon the songs of my soul in the stars.
