All of these have collided together for me recently - in a painful...

Hey there, all you cool cats and kittens! Grab a snack, a beverage of your choice, get comfy, and settle in to listen to the first chapter of my novel. It's like an old-time radio show, but without the campy studio-manufactured background noises and cheesy accents. Instead, it's me in my campy,...

An Accidental Autobiography
It's a truism that author's write what they know, and Geren Krelle - the main character in my novel – is well known to me after all, I created him. It wasn't until after the writing process was complete, though, that I came to realize WHY I knew him so well. In many ways (most, if I'm being...
