Authors often get asked about their writing process. Most of all, readers want to know how we come up with our story ideas? From where do these ideas spring forth? Is it magic? Divine muses? Simple insanity? I know there are authors out there that get inspired by reading other works of fiction. That does … Continue reading Story Ideas — Where do they come from?

Whose Kingdom? – 3LineTales Week 133
"Dad took me to Overlook Rock and he said, 'Everything the light touches will be yours someday.'" "He did?" Kwame asked apprehensively. "Yeah, but it was night time, so I couldn't see anything!" *Written as a response to the Three Line Tales Week 133 photo prompt. It's been a while since I did one of … Continue reading Whose Kingdom? – 3LineTales Week 133
A Wonderful Suprise
Look at that! I would not be surprised if some of you reading this have never seen, or don't even know what that thing is. It's called a "check." It's what people used to use for cashless payments before the internet age. Feels like a lifetime ago! I used to have a checkbook, you know. … Continue reading A Wonderful Suprise

A Blessing
Touched by a leaf spirit. Wait, didn't this guy end up going crazy at the end of the film...?
The Calm Before the Storm
Here I am at last. Comic Con Seoul, Day 1. T minus an hour or so. There are already folks lined up to get. To see me, obviously. Got my table all set up. The guy/gal behind me hasn't arrived yet. Hope they don't bail and leave my back exposed. It's the part of my … Continue reading The Calm Before the Storm
A Taste of Things to Come
This pile here represents all the books I have assembled for Comic Con. Unfortunately, my two novels with Fiction Vortex did not arrive as projected (and the folks at Ingram Spark have not been helpful, not at all), so I will have to do without them. But I think I have a good spread, nonetheless. … Continue reading A Taste of Things to Come
Less Than 5 Days to Go!
I am official listed as an artist guest at Comic Con Seoul 2018! You can see the guest listing HERE. I'm pretty sure none of you guys will be in the Seoul area this weekend. But, if by some incredible chance you are, stop by and say hi. I've got some free stuff I am … Continue reading Less Than 5 Days to Go!
