Legends, Lore, and More
Hey, everyone. We’re already well into 2022, so this is a good time to list my writing goals for this year. I’ll also tell you a bit about the projects I’m working on this year. A Book of Shorts (working title) is a collection of thirteen short stories. I’ve shared a couple of excerpts in... Continue Reading →
To say that my New Year’s post is a little late would be an understatement. It’s already February, and I’ve yet to write a blog post this year (aside from having a guest, C. S. Boyack and a reblog of Mae Clair’s post about her latest release). I started a draft, or at least I... Continue Reading →
Happy Friday, Readers. Hope you've had a good week. Although summer hasn't officially arrived, if the upcoming weekend is any indication, Texas is in for a hot one. I'm making a concerted effort to blog more often. In addition to writing, I enjoy photography - especially nature photos. Due to health reasons, I'm not able... Continue Reading →
New beginnings. Okay, I probably say that this time every year. But I always look at January 1 as a time to start over. To put aside our perceived failures and move forward to achieve our plans and dreams. As you know from my last post, I didn’t accomplish all that I planned last year.... Continue Reading →
I had high hopes for this year. After publishing my first novel, a novella, and contributing to three anthologies in 2016, this year could only get better. Right? Wrong! I thought I would finish the first draft of my novel, Unknown Reasons, by March at the latest. Then came April, May, June. The clock kept... Continue Reading →
Last Saturday, I realized I didn't do my Friday post. It was an incredibly busy week at my day job and as a co-worker said, "This week has been six weeks long." Wish I could offer that as an excuse, but the truth is simple. I forgot! Things have been a little calmer this week.... Continue Reading →
It's October, and that means Halloween is just around the corner. What better time to read a good mystery or suspense story? This month, you can purchase a copy of Unseen Motives, the first in my Driscoll Lake series for only 99 cents. That's $3.00 off the regular price. I'm busy editing book two Unknown...

Mondays. Lots of songs have been written and sung about this day of the week. Two that come to mind are the Mamas and Papas, "Monday, Monday," and The Carpenter's "Rainy Days and Mondays." Neither of the songs put the first day of the work week in a good light. But this Monday is a... Continue Reading →
Hi, everyone. Hard to believe another week has come and gone. While the official start of summer is still a few days away, we're already experiencing summer-like temperatures here in Texas. The days have grown longer, but that is something I enjoy. And, in spite of the heat, there are so many things I enjoy... Continue Reading →
Hi, everyone. To not have so many posts each week linking to the other sites where I contribute (AIW Press and Story Empire), I've decided to do a weekly wrap-up post each Friday. The idea is to free the other days for original content. It's been a crazy couple of weeks here for me. We're... Continue Reading →
Hey everyone. It's been a crazy, busy week for me. Wish I could say the busyness was related to writing, but alas, I can't. Anyway, today I'm posting at AIW Press where I talk about book cover designs. Click the link below to read. Okay, confession time. As much as I love my Kindle and... Continue Reading →
Hey, everyone! Happy Thursday. (Or should I say, Friday Eve?) If you read the acknowledge pages of my books, you'll find that I always give a shout out to my weekly writer's group. I can't tell you how much this group of men and women have helped me over the years. While some members have... Continue Reading →
