I think it's safe for a writer to say that it's pretty much ALWAYS frustrating when you are trying to get your name and work out there. It's not there is no 'easy' way because I think if you're willing to pursue a dream you get over the 'easy' aspect of it pretty quickly. Easy… Continue reading Handling the Business

Natural Bored Salesman
I am no sales person. Salesman. Whatever. I ain't it. I wish I was, I do, really. A lot of my jobs I have had would have been waaay easier. Alas, it was not meant to be. I hate asking for help and asking someone to buy something, pitching them on something, is just not… Continue reading Natural Bored Salesman
Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark: Blackwood’s Guide to Dangerous Fairies – REVIEW
EEE! I love books like this. The strange tie in books you never hear about but which add a layer to another work, like a film. I had a similar experience with the Blair Witch books that came out.

A Glimpse Of The Shadow
This is one of the many pictures I took today for the cover of A Shadow Over Ever. You get a feel for what I am aiming for, the general idea I was going for, without seeing the for real-real image I have chosen. I wanted something that evoked Pete Anders, the main character… Continue reading A Glimpse Of The Shadow

This is a sample from my newest book Noches De Corazones Negros Little Mean Things It was a mistake. A monster. A thing that was not one of nature’s special creatures.

For me, it's all about whether I have fun with what I am watching or not. It's about whether what the people were trying to do and did do allow… Continue reading Expecting Better
