Enter a strange world of Blogs, Books, Podcasts, and More.
For those outside of the Mid-Michigan area something called Back To The Bricks means very little to you but for me, and for those of us who live in the Flint area, it's a pretty big deal. Back To The Bricks is Flint's annual car cruise and show which brings hundreds of cars and thousands… Continue reading Back to the Bricks 2009
So, let me tell you something, nothing, as a reader, is more frustrating than not knowing everything. I get it a lot as a movie goer as well. I wanna know everything, I wanna see everything, and dammit, I don't want a cliffhanger. But then there is the writer side of me, who doesn't explain… Continue reading But, I Don't Understand…
We really need to meet these 'they - wise folks, those cats. It is not a popular idea but dammit, who cares. Be bold. If you write, if you draw, if you make music, whatever you do, get it out there. Release it to the world. Blog it. Post it. Print it. Press it. Release… Continue reading Be Bold, As They Say…
Once upon a time... Ok, that is no way to start anything, well, maybe a Will. How funny would that be? To start your Will with Once Upon A Time. Damn. Ten years is a long time. Ten years ia a long time to wait. And ten years is a hell of a long time… Continue reading The Story About the Greatest Story Ever Told…
One of the most rewarding things about being a writer, or I am sure any manner of artsy sort of person, is having your work reach people. Sure, you may do the work for yourself but you intend others to see it or you would keep it all in a journal or a box. You… Continue reading Re-Phews…
It is strange to stand where I am today, on a hill, not a high hill, but a hill just the same, and to look down into the valley where I started writing when I was a teenager. I started with a pencil and pen and paper, writing in those Mead notebooks, writing and writing… Continue reading Cranking it out…

Having finished the new book (This Beautiful Darkness), I can honestly say that, for me, the hardest part came at the end, with the thank yous. Sure, it takes some time to write the stories and edit them, but that comes naturally, flowing from me without much effort. Writing is a matter of seeing a… Continue reading Thank You…

In our lives there are always going to be places, people, things, and events that mean more to us than to anyone else. Sure, people will appreciate these things but they will not mean as much as they do to us. One of those things for me is BACK FROM NOTHING, my book of short… Continue reading 10 years…
It is pretty clear that there are a few sides to my creativity and writing, while the greatest part, is but one of those sides. Art and Photography, both new arts to me, are now integral parts of who I am. After I did the skull painting I had the notion of a painting of… Continue reading The Other Sides
Can I tell ya a secret? I am awful at keeping secrets. It isn't so much that I like giving people details they don't want, need, or are privy to so much as I just say too much sometimes. I guess it's having a big mouth. Ha, a writer with a big mouth, imgine that!… Continue reading Secrets
I can be called many things but an elitist is not one of those things. I grew up a dork, and remain a dork to this day. That is who I am. And having not done art since I was a teenager, I am a self taught artist, so any ego I have about my… Continue reading Art With a "Message"
