Back in the Saddle... sort of

As 2014 came to a close, so too did my writing "career" (if you want to call it that). My real job had taken over my life; what free minutes I had were spent with the kiddos. Now that the chaos and nightmare has abated, I'm again feeling the itch to write.

Well, write and actually publish something. Something worthwhile. I'm looking at my pile of books and cringe: Some are decent and I'm proud of; Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by Martin D. Gibbs (?)

“It just doesn't seem right to spend your entire life drinking, when you could be exploring the world."
"Or," Zhy said as he hefted a mug to his lips, "it doesn't seem right to be risking your life running down warlocks when you could be sitting on a nice, warm bar stool.”
― Martin D. Gibbs
