It’s such a lonely place. I know, my friend, I know. This is a safe space here, a sacred conversation between you and me, not filled with expectations and judgements and to-do lists and seemingly simple answers that are in reality, exponentially complex. I know what it feels like to stifle that b...

Imagine working for years on a book, revising,  getting feedback, revising again and then finally sending out to agents only to get rejections, all because of one page. That’s what can happen when you don’t work on your query and I’ve found that seeing examples of queries that work...

Yeah, I could’ve hired someone to edit but in reality, the writer needs to edit their work throughout the wr...

Labas, Debesylieti,

Further quotes from my novel, Last of the Annamese, on the North Vietnamese stand-down just before the fall of Saigon:

The eerie calm prevailed. Analyses from stateside agencies surmised that the North Vietnamese were regrouping, but the embassy responded that the North Vietnamese were waiting for...

As enormous fans of both Star Wars and great cosplay, we’re especially partial to the amazing costumes fans of the galaxy far, far away come up with. We don’t usually focus on Darth Vader costumes though. We don’t ignore the Sith Lord because we don’t love him (Vader is one of the best characters...

The boundaries between genres are blurring.
