What Comes to Mind
Here I will post updates on my writing, some short ramblings about the hurdles and joys I encounter on my journey, and anything I find interesting that I want to share.
March 2025 Writing Update – Lions and Lambs and Queries. Oh My!
I went into this month without much of a plan. That’s unusual for me. I like to set goals month by month that reflect my goals for the year. But as March began, I could not decide which projects I wanted to pick up. I decided to let my moods and thoughts carry the...
February 2025 Writing Update – 28 Days of Ups and Downs
The shortest month of the year. Only an even four weeks long. And yet, an eventful month that took me for a wild, emotional, and unexpected ride. The month began with me putting aside book 2 of my YA series – after a tremendous amount of drafting in January – to...
January 2025 Writing Update – Starting Off On the Right Foot
Time flies when you're having fun, right? Well I had a lot of fun writing this month. January flew past so smooth and quick that I hardly realized it was over until I noticed that today was February 1st. So much productivity, so many events and changes crammed into...

Mid-January Writing Update 2025 – On the Road to 50K

December 2024 Writing Update – Putting a Bow on a Great Year
It is a couple of days after Christmas. There is still a thin fringe of snow on the ground, a rare occurrence for us at this time of year. The hectic, hurried season is behind me, the end of this year is waiting on the other side of this weekend. After the frenetic...
We Suck at Comics: Volume 2 Creator Profile
I cannot lie – I am very self-conscious writing this. But here it is anyway: The amazing and talented guys at Wayward Raven Media are publishing a series of “creator profiles” for the people involved in the upcoming anthology We Suck at Comics: Volume 2 –...
Marbles Anthology Has Been Released
Surprise! I have been waiting (not very long at all) to announce that Blue Marble Storytellers - affiliated with Wolf Grove Media, who released the awesome Book of Choices anthologies - has a new anthology that was just released on November 30th! Titled Marbles, this...
November 2024 Writing Update – The Hardest Part (so far) About Being a Writer
The past thirty days have been very reflective for me. There has been upheaval in the world all around me and I have tried my best to ignore it (when possible) or deal with it (when necessary). It is very easy to get distracted in our modern society; minimizing those...
