A quote from the 22 July 2020 issue of the Quesnel Cariboo Observer issue says, “At the start of the pandemic, Cariboo Observer editor Lindsay Chung

Absolution Progress
Hey!
What a time to be alive, and what a time for a first blog post.
Anyways, I'll keep it brief. I've been using quarantine to really chip away at the next entry in the TCI Series.
Here's a quick teaser of what to expect:

A SERIES TO GET LOST IN
The Heirs of Eldon by M.L. HamiltonMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Epic fantasy is new to me. And I have to admit when I first started reading Book One, EMERALD: THE TALISMAN OF ELDON, in preparation for its recording, I almost stopped. I did stop. Epic fantasy requires commitment and I wasn't ready at t Read more of this blog post »

I just bought five Tim Miller novels because cancel culture
is one hundred percent lame and not in standing with modern American character. It is a blight on one's conduct to whisper and conspire against people while ignoring the skeletons in your OWN closet. Burning down a building is not brave in 2020. It's just socially acceptable. The bravest thing you c

by Chaz Bufe, publisher See Sharp Press
(a repost)
Your reviews matter, probably more than you realize.
There has been a drastic decline in the numbers of magazines and newspapers over the past two decades, and an even more drastic decline in the number that carry book reviews. Read more of this blog post »

Life moves fast
I had to take a second the other day to realize how fast life really goes.
At this time last year, I thought maybe, one day, whenever the time was right, I'd write a book. Little did I know that in a year I would have just typed "the end" on the first draft of my SECOND book and my debut novel is le Read more of this blog post »

Personal Journal Entry – Dr. Cashel Gregory
When everything is going wrong, they taught me, take it back to basics, go back to the solid ground on which you stand, and check it out from there. So that’s what I have always done because I am nothing if not obedient.

Economic Calm Before the 2020 Election Storm
For six weeks there has been a calm before the storm in the economy.

How I came up with the story for Blood and Bone
I thought it might be interesting to discuss how I came up with the concept for Blood and Bone. For context, the story follows Jack O'Donnell, a middle aged rock star who finds an unlikely ally in a journalist, Erin Langford. As he tells his story, we go back in time to the 90s when he first started

LOCKDOWN
Now faced with a new lockdown here in Auckland, New Zealand, I'm adamant I won't fall into the same bad habits as last time!!! Which means much less wine and a tad more exercise, and definitely more reading.

“Jesus fucking Christ,” I snapped at Skye. “You really had me worried. How in Hell did she sneak up on you like that?”

I'm realizing that it really doesn't matter how well you write or how good your novel might be, but it's all about WHO YOU KNOW. If you don't know the right people, you'll never become a popular author. I have read the free sections and the full books by popular authors and I have to say, how did th

Interview with Tana French
Dublin crime novelist Tana French has the kind of critical reviews that other writers would…well, die for. Her debut murder mystery,
In the Woods
, won rave reviews and multiple literary prizes upon its release in 2007. Since then, her books have tended to haunt the bestseller lists, on both sides of the pond, and for months at a time. British newspaper The Independent has dubbed French "The First Lady of Irish Crime," and The Washington Post says she is the most important crime novelist to emerge in the past ten years. ...more
