Usually, something that will happen during the course of my day and my interactions with those around me that will trigger some solution to the blockage. (less)

Kidding aside, the best thing about writing is the joy of discovering the story as I write. Learning about the characters and the suspense that they go through is the same reason I love reading. However, for some reason, the discovery is even more powerful when it's my own story.(less)

Galaxy Series Status



It has been ages since I last posted to this blog.  Many of my fans--perhaps as many as six of them--wonder when book 3 of the Galaxy Series will be available.  I can say that I'm still devoted to completing the series, but life gets in the way of writing.  I am currently around half-way finished with the first draft, and have a strong idea about where the story is going.  I am truly excited about Read more of this blog post »

Just Mercy by Bryan Stevenson
“All these young children being sent to prison forever, all this grief and violence. Those judges throwing people away like they're not even human, people shooting each other, hurting each other like they don't care. I don't know, it's a lot of pain. I decided that I was supposed to be here [at the court] to catch some of the stones people cast at each other.'
I chuckled when she said it. During the McMillian hearings, a local minister had held a regional church meeting about the case and had asked me to come speak. There were a few people in the African American community whose support of Walter was muted, not because they thought he was guilty but because he had had an extramarital affair and wasn't active in the church. At the church meeting, I spoke mostly about Walter's case, but I also reminded people that when the woman accused of adultery was brought to Jesus, he told the accusers who wanted to stone her to death, 'Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.' The woman's ac

Douglas Adams
“And then, one Thursday, nearly two thousand years after one man had been nailed to a tree for saying how great it would be to be nice to people for a change, a girl sitting on her own in a small café in Rickmansworth suddenly realized what it was that had been going wrong all this time, and she finally knew how the world could be made a good and happy place. This time it was right, it would work, and no one would have to get nailed to anything.”

Sarah Palin
“Before I became governor of the great state of Alaska, I was mayor of my hometown.
And since our opponents in this presidential election seem to look down on that experience, let me explain to them what the job involves. I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a 'community organizer,' except that you have actual responsibilities.”
