In case you were wondering, no, I didn’t die. But these last 4+ months since my last post have been interesting.

I made what I hope will be my final move, and came back home, all in one fell swoop. Moving roughly 1,000 miles north by northeast - and dropping over 3,000 feet in elevation - was quite the endeavor.

Pro tip, if you can avoid driving a dully loaded 24-foot U-Haul truck over Interstate 70 between Grand Junction, CO and Denver, do so at any cost. It wasn’t so much the hard climbs and sharper curves as it was the poorly maintained road.

At one point I was all but certain the truck was going to tip over after hitting a particularly bad stretch of chuckholes while taking one of those aforementioned curves. I was leaning so hard left in the cab that Bernie Sanders sent me a campaign mailer.

Getting settled in to the new place took some time. Now I’m writing for InsideTheStar.com and the Steele Ozone. And that’s in addition to writing my own books, a spec script and pitch deck for a streaming series, and publishing books at Tuscany Bay Books.

Free time? Who, me?

And if that wasn’t enough on the plate 2025 is shaping up to be even busier. And that’s a good thing for you.

I’ll be posting here weekly. And I’ll also be relighting the studio on my old podcast, A Scribe’s Journey. You can check out some of the old episodes recorded a few years ago back in Omaha and Colorado right here.

Back then I was also a co-host for the weekly radio show, The Writers Block on LA Talk Radio. But I shut down the podcast about the same time we shut down The Writers Block when Jim Christina passed away. There was just too much going on at the time to do either, much less both, properly. You can listen to all of the shows here.

But, things have settled down now and I want to get back to talking with other authors/creators about their journey.

And yes, I have some more writing projects in the hopper that I hope to start releasing later in 2025. And there’s a secret project or two that might just be ready to cut loose next year too.

So, to quote one John Wick, I’m thinkin’ I’m back.
