Have a I ever mentioned I make hard apple cider? So much has been going on lately, and I am trying so hard to keep up. I built a recording studio … did I mention that? I bought hardware for my computer. I found and acquired a good microphone and an interface. I even learned […]

This can’t be happening. How is it I have actually managed to get something done? My bosses … so many bosses … are going to flip. How can I be a productive employee when I have enough free time to raise kids AND do this sort of thing? The hair. It’s all in the hair.

I’ve been busy. So we all know I am now writing for The Atheist Republic, and I am happy to say I am having a great time and learning a lot. It seems I needed nothing more than a bit of novelty to shake the dust from the walls and get me back to work. […]

It seems the hardest part of being a writer is the writing. Anyone who knows me understands that I am simply run off my feet time wise. Three kids, a full time job, and a bad habit of having a mid-life crisis once every three years. It gives me a lot to talk about, but […]

When I started along the road to becoming an author I knew I would be passing many milestones, and the one I had been looking forward to more than most others was my first interview. I’ve passed that milestone now, and I had a great time! I was interviewed in Victoria, BC, Canada by Mme. […]

This place has been quiet lately. Barely any activity at all, save for the digital dust. The electronic muss of stagnation and entropy. I have been a bit ill. Too much coffee made me sick, and too much humanity made me nervous. I am finally coming down from a major disappointment. A few months ago […]

I was reading Reddit yesterday, and on the /r/writing subreddit was a post written by a writer who was upset by authors who refuse to read other authors works. He based his opinion on the idea that if you do not read other authors, specifically of your target genre, you deprive yourself of their skills, […]

This is a guest post written by Ryan Burkhart from Hammer The Gods. A message to my religious friends and family: I find it rather disturbing when religious people look at me with glee, as if I’m a prospect for religious conversion. It’s disconcerting to see people, especially those I care about, act like predators […]
