Copper Descent started out as an exploration of a dark figure who always appeared in my work. I though maybe if I discovered who he was, than he would go away. No one was more surprised than me to discover he was Lucifer.

I'm currently working on a short story for an anthology called The Secret Door. I'm also working on revisions for Iron Resolve, book 2 in The Sentient Chronicles. I have a stand-alone novel I'm drafting as well. It's a cautionary tale of mass murder and hypnotherapy called D-Brie.

If you can quit, quit. But if you discover you can't, you are not an aspiring writer. You are in fact a writer. We are all addicts here, and this is our drug. If you can't quit, I recommend that you indulge as often as you can.

I love the rush of creating something new, and sharing those thoughts and ideas who may have never considered otherwise.

Usually, when I'm blocked there's a reason. I'm either not being true to my characters, I'm forcing the story to go in a direction it doesn't want to go, or I'm not in love with what I'm writing. The best way I've found to break through is to take a long walk, and consider where I have to start over. Sometimes I have to throw away thousands of words, and others, I just dredge through the muck until I can get where I want to be.
