Hello readers! I realize it’s been a while since my last post, but as you can imagine, it’s been an ‘interesting’ 2020. I guess the one advantage of being locked down during this pandemic is it has forced me to refocus on my writing– something that I fear I have been neglecting. To that end, I …
Do not mistake my silence for lack of activity. 🙂 Aside from the usual distractions of life, I have been contributing to Book 2 of the War of Shadows series (the sequel to Soul Census.) As proof, I’ve decided to post snippets of the first two chapters for any hungry fans. Bear in mind that …

Hello there, reader. For the past few days I’ve been working on tweaking my web sites (I think I’m done for now) and doing some final touch-ups on Soul Census. I’ll be updating the manuscript on all the online retailers soon. No changes to story line or anything, just grammatical fixes. As I delve into …
