I know it has been ages since I blogged and I must apologize for that. I have been very busy. Since the new year I have been working in earnest to finish up the follow-up to, "The Awakening" books with its sequel, "The Gathering." I'm happy to say that I have finished it... Well, sort of. I have done what us authors like to call (or perhaps it is just me) round one of finishing. What that means is that I have finished writing the story. Now comes the fun part (sarcasm, heavil

Life finds a way. A way to get in the way. At least when it comes to writing. Writing, is a very solitary pursuit. You need quiet and to be undisturbed. You need time to get your head in the game and you need to be rested so that thoughts and ideas come unabated. This perfect storm doesn't happen easily, if at all. As a father of two wonderful young boys and with a job which sees me waking up a little after midnight to work 10+ hours these opportunities to write are few and f

I know what your thinking. It's almost March, isn't it a little late to be starting the New Year? Well...kinda. The thing is, my first novel, "The Awakening: Part One" is turning one on March 1st and for me, it's like the start of a New Year. I am so excited about what I have going on this next year, I don't know what to start telling you about first! So I guess I will just start with what is happening first. Right now, I am participating in a AMA, or Ask Me Anything Q&A. It

As an independent author, or even, just an author. There is so much work that goes into putting a book in front of a reader. There is, of course, the writing. This is the part of the work that is a joy. You have an idea, you take the time to expand that idea till it becomes a work of art. You mold it, like clay, until it becomes something truly recognizable and appreciated... or at least you hope. After you have written the book, then you release it into the wild, and great t

Book release parties are nothing knew in the world of publishing. They are often grand events with food, book readings and Q&A sessions at some large book store, or cafe. However, these are events for well-known or award winning authors. Those who have name recognition. An author whose name gets people to go, "Oh cool, I always wanted to meet him/her. I love their books!" For the rest of us that have yet to break into that level of stardom or book release parties are usually

Six months ago I published my first novel, "The Awakening: Part One" since then I have garnered a four star rating on Amazon. I have sold upwards of 50 books(may not sound like much, but when you are one of several thousand that release a book monthly, unless you are a big name, this is good), I have run a successful Kickstarter campaign to publish Part Two, and I have completed and are working on the final touches of the next book. It has been an interesting and sometimes gr
