Personal Time

This is a bit of a hard message for me, but because mental health is a big topic for me that hits close to home, I thought I would share.

I suffer from anxiety and depression. I have for years, and normally writing is what keeps me from slipping. However, with what I have going on at home, writing is Read more of this blog post »

Audio Book 2

Well, I did my first session putting down And Ye Shall Be As Gods on audio, and I don't think it went half-bad. I managed to get all the prologue down--about 24 pages--in an hour. Not much compared to guys who do it for a living, but I'm hoping I'll get better as I go along.

The Universe Within

I’ve been a night sky watcher since childhood days. In particular, the full-faced, golden-hued harvest moon held my fascination. When very young, I imagined the glowing orb followed me, as if in chase, when riding in a car. And the stars? They twinkled like diamonds nestled in an inky velvet cloth.

Everyone has a crazy dating story or knows someone who's had the most absurd dating experience. Well, what if you could read about some of them in a novella?

Bu yazı, son kısmındaki karşılaştırma hariç bütünüyle Almanca ile ilgilidir. Ancak Cumhuriyetin ilanından sonra yeni Türk alfabesi oluşturulurken verilmiş olan isabetli bir kararın mantıksal gerekçesini anlamamıza da yardımcı olacaktır kanaatindeyim.

Hi everyone, here comes a question for the native English speakers.

Four years ago, if I'd heard "clinical trial," I would have immediately thought "last-ditch effort." My oncologist has a similar equation regarding chemo.

In my play there are just
Two scenes
In the first a girl loses her sock
(Maybe she is skipping rope
Or on skates)
And squats with underwear showing
To a gaggle of twelve-year-olds--
Squats to pull it back into position.
One whose name is Vlad
Dreams about her underwear
