Had I been born on January 8, I might have been named "Elvis"...Elvis Wong....not good. But that would have been better than what my grandfather had planned for me..."Agnew", after the former vice-president Spiro Agnew.

My life has definitely split into definitive sections. As with many others, after one of your parent's passes away, everything changes and of course, that means both good and bad. Simply, none of us can escape the yin-yang of things because that's how everything is and I embrace it.

Growing up, one of the greatest things to occur was to simply sound like my father; I would answer the phone and anyone on the other line would say, "Hey Jim!", including my dad's brothers.

With his indominable spirit now in me, I was able to write ...more

What is wrong with some people on social media?

I learned this first-hand earlier this evening on a simple post to The Walking Dead comics thread dealing with yet another remake for Batman. My comment quickly turned into a genuinely and clearly jealous statement and bashing against me for writing a review of my own book when in fact, yes, I did because from the author, I was simply thrilled to share my experience writing the story and to offer an explanation to my readers of what they can expect from that "tantalizing" tale... WHAT"S WRONG WITH THAT?

A personal and heart-felt message from the author, to everyone... but to this guy on Facebook, he decided my self comment was something like, against the law or who knows what.

He trolled this site, screen captured my book review and posted it "against me" or whatever; completely ignoring the post I wrote on Walking Dead comics thread all together.

So, to answer this question my response is; I DON'T KNOW. It's a wild weird world people. Take Care! :)!(less)

How do you deal with writer’s block?

This is crap! If you feel your story, write it! Trust your early instincts, take notes on how the whole process makes you feel on the side, and WRITE!

Re-write, then edit and re-write again. Then have some lunch, walk your dog, tickle your cat, hug your kids and get your butt back to writing!!?!!!(less)

Orcinus X giveaway...

Thank you, to everyone who entered this giveaway. I appreciate you taking the time and showing interest in what I hope becomes a movie someday :)

I wish I could offer more free copies but the self-publishing route is expensive. I'm hoping with continued hard work and crazy-creative writing, a big-name publisher will take note of my work and offer to sign me to an initial small writing contract.
