I’ve been lucky enough to have seen an increase in downloads lately. It’s gratifying to know people are actually reading my stuff. I don’t do social media, so the only way I can attract more readers is through word-of-mouth. So please, if you like any of the FREE stuff you’ve found on my site, PLEASE […]

So far I’ve gotten a little over 400 downloads of my stories. OK, so I’m not going to knock James Patterson or David Baldacci off the best seller charts, but it’s a start. I’m trying to get more visibility without getting mired in the social media swamp (I know, I’m supposed to do Facebook, Instagram, […]

Finally self-published this as an ebook after multiple failed attempts at landing an agent. Originally, I’d intended the story to be a comedy! The idea of Jesus coming back to earth and losing his memory (forgetting who he is) struck me as fertile ground for some humor. But when I began writing about Ted (the […]

Toonland just seems to make a lot more sense these days. But, alas, things aren’t great in Toonland either. The denizens there are also experiencing some turmoil, and many […]

Please join me in a moment of silence for the English language. I’m not sure when this started, but it does seem like I’m seeing more and more grammatical errors, malapropisms and just plain misuse of certain words in correspondence and conversation. Even with supposably (supposedly) well-educated individuals, its (it’s) getting worst (worse) then (than) […]

When my kids come to visit me, they take different routes to get here. They all know and accept that each of them needs to take a different route, and they don’t judge each other. They each want to get here the best way they can. And I certainly don’t care about how they get […]
