This Is Why I Write

I need to share something that happened to me today. Nine years ago I corresponded with a young man who was a student in a family member’s 8th grade English class. He read the copies of my Broken Worlds Books 1 and 2 she kept in her class library and became enamored with the story. His teacher put him in touch with me and we wrote back and forth for

I’m Ready for my Closeup, Mr. Demille!

Soon to be media darling, Mike Ghere, was featured tonight in a live interview by best-selling author, Tracy Lawson. The verbal sparring was fast and furious, making the half-hour discussion seem to simply fly by. The winners of this debate were obvious; their fans. Just listen to what people are saying: “It was an action-packed 30 minutes of pure enjoyment!” said Mr. Norwin N. Portent Miss Hedden D. Clowds gushes,

Book Signing Event – May 28, The Art Break in Logan, OH

I will be at the Art Break/Piano Works from 11am – 2pm on May 28. It is located at 44 Main Street in Logan, OH. I will have all three books of the Broken Worlds series available for purchase and signing, so you can start the adventure or continue it. Depending on the day (and the extent of my public speaking aversion) I may do a little reading as well.

Licking County Library Author Fair – April 16, 2016

I had a great time at the Author Fair this past Saturday. Though the outstanding spring weather may have kept the crushing crowds away, it was a nice day of talking to people about my books and holding great conversations with fellow authors. At the last minute (OK, two days before), I had some thoughts on how to set up my table to get more attention. We had the black skull

Off to the Printers

Broken Worlds, Book III: Patterns in the Cracks has been typeset and is off to the printer for approval and proofing. It looks as if my goal of a mid-March release may actually come true. That said, there is still plenty of work to do. Now we tackle the conversion to digital copies, which can be finicky. Oh well, still close enough to post the cover, as promised.    

Finally, An Update

So, just an update to let everyone know what I’ve been doing. Sorry for neglecting the page the past couple of months, but I really haven’t had much news until now. I had to set Broken Worlds III aside for a while to finish another story. Some of you may remember me talking about my “Rockets and Rayguns” story from the 2014 NaNoWriMo. Well, I have been working on polishing

Close! But No Cigar

Three or four months ago I submitted a short story to the L. Ron. Hubbard Writers of the Future contest. The contest is for science fiction or fantastical short stories, and the top three winners of each quarter receive prize money for their stories, which are collected into an annual anthology. The overall winner receives a bigger prize and all winners are invited to a Hollywood gala event. It is a very well

When Life Reminds You of a Good Book, or How to Stumble into Your First Blog Post

So this is my new blog. I knew it was on its way and I have been dreading it for days. I have read blogs and even followed a few, but the thought of blogging my own thoughts is very foreign to me. Who am I to think I am interesting enough that someone would actually want to read – whatever I decide to write about? How can I write something
