“Overcast”
Stitch your clouds across
the sky, a billowing quilt
of heavenly down.

I'm a fantasy author and blogger. I like to write about the creative process, music, movies, books, and my weekly haiku series, "Haiku Sunday"
Writing when Life Gets in the Way
Real-life responsibilities hit me all at once in the last week and have really interfered with my writing. Now, I’m not going to lie, before the events of the past week, I was mostly getting in my own way of finishing the first draft of “Jaed and Aston”. But it feels different when external obligations are pulling you away from something you otherwise should be doing. Continue reading “Writing when Life Gets in the Way”
Haiku Sunday – Afternoon
“Afternoon”
Golden light dapples
through leaves green and brown, like a
patchwork canopy.

1,766 Miles in a Moving Truck
Here is part 1 of our road trip to Denver. Part 2 incoming… sometime in the near future. I apologize for the recent radio silence, but I’m really trying to focus on finishing my novel. I’ll let you know how that’s going next week. Happy Friday!
Well, Jessie has moved to Denver, and I was fortunate enough to help her get there. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, read this.
We drove 1,766 miles over four days in a 12-foot moving truck filled with all of her crap. I use ‘crap’ in the nicest possible way, because Jessie talked the whole time about how she needs to downsize her life to a single car. We’ll see how that goes.

Haiku Sunday – Remember
“Remember”
Remember that time,
that place, that person? Fading
gently to nothing.

Haiku Sunday – Screens
“Screens”
Little blue lights peek,
illuminating faces,
taming the masses.

Don’t Call It a Recap: Writer’s Burnout
I am burned out on writing. There I said it. It would be one thing if I didn’t want to write, or if I simply had no solid ideas. But I have a slew of drafts in my WordPress Dashboard and a pretty good handle on where I want “Jaed and Aston” to go over the final few chapters. I just don’t have the motivation to do any of them. Continue reading “Don’t Call It a Recap: Writer’s Burnout”
Haiku Sunday – Mug
“Mug”
Please find me a mug
which can both radiate and
retain its own heat.

Numberbrag: 4,000 Visitors
Looking over my website stats today I realized that we have eclipsed 4,000 visitors. With some basic arithmetic, I calculated that we surpassed the big 4k on March 16th. I don’t really know what this means, but it’s a cool little number. Continue reading “Numberbrag: 4,000 Visitors”
The Mystical Land of a Completed First Draft
Wow, spring has been busy for me in all of the best ways. Future Wife and I took a road trip to Niagara Falls and Toronto a couple weeks ago (pictures incoming), and I have two more road trips planned in April, first to Denver and then to New England just a few days later. Maybe I’ll post some updates from the road on the old travel blog. Continue reading “The Mystical Land of a Completed First Draft”
