Good morning.
At the time of writing, it is 10:09am Central Daylight Time on June 7, 2025.
You may have noticed I’ve been away for a bit. That was unintentional. Still, it was a long time, so some explanation should be expected.
I lost the fire. Writing was difficult and not pleasurable.
Lots of life stuff got in the way.
And then I got COVID and my granddad died. I needed a reset.
For the last 11 or so months since that one-two punch, I’ve been on an aggressive campaign to revitalize myself. Physically at first, then mentally, then emotionally, then creatively.
The reinvention has been successful. I’m writing again, and writing a lot. I have several complete first point five drafts of novels, novellas, and short stories (first draft writing in terms of timing, but not in absolute quality), some music stuff (not very much), and opinions (so many). I’m querying agents and not getting immediately rejected. I’ve been able to write novels from start to finish more than once.
I’m reading, listening to music, working out, all of that fun stuff.
And I want to have a place to share some of that with the world.
Major pieces will most likely be going to agents and short story magazines, but I do have a few stories I’m working on that I would like to serialize here, in romance and science-fiction.
I’ve loved writing. It’s the art that most speaks to me, the one that captured my imagination from a young age. At the moment, I’m in a slight burnout period, getting to a milestone in one project, sketching out a few more, and trying not to lose my mind or faint.
I can’t promise a consistent release schedule. When I have longer form pieces and other serialized stories, I’ll try to adhere to a weekly release, but that’s about it.
This is where I’m at now, and it’s a place that I feel pretty optimistic about.
Love you, take care, stay safe
