Troy is an author, former high school teacher, and follower of Jesus. When he is not hiking the mountains or exploring lost beaches in his converted school bus, he is authoring new stories. Often you may find him in a hammock in the woods with a laptop and a cup of coffee, dreaming of his next epic adventure. Troy is the author of the Descendants of Light and Demon Tide series, with many more books to come. Through his writing, he is always seeking to bring others to God by using imaginative plots where light overcomes darkness, fantastical worlds abound, and incredible creatures flourish. Troy lives close to a coffee shop in a small town in Michigan

The spiritual world and all of its mystery, paired with a little embellished fantasy would give me the inspiration for "The Watcher Key." I've always wanted to create my own strange world, full of interesting people and dramatic conflicts between good & evil, but with a positive spiritual message of the love of God for His people.
In the books, the "Creator" is most certainly based on our connection with the Creator God of the Bible, and some of the characters in the book will come to know him as we Christians do the One True God.
Ultimately, it is for this reason I wrote "The Watcher Key" and will continue that theme throughout the series, where individuals, met with adversity, find comfort in the fact that there is a God, and He loves us very much.(less)

There doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason to writer's block, it has a mind of its own!
Usually, if I am stressed, tired, or distracted by the many things life throws at me, any writing I attempt will be marginal at best and I will likely have to revisit those sections later with a good eraser.
My goal is to write when I can write, which is usually just a little every day. If I try to force myself into long writing hours I find my words to be uninspiring, choppy, or unclear.

Christian Fantasy?

Sounds strange... I know. But I really really like fantasy and adventure books. Sometimes the crazier the better. On occasion when I have exhausted searching for TV series with "Space" in the name on Netflix, I will peruse the fantasy books online.

Most are ridiculously sexualized or can't seem to get through a paragraph without dropping some unwanted curse-bombs, or the writing is so horrific tha Read more of this blog post »
