Mom asked Titus to wash the white bed sheets. It was the first thing she'd said to him since he stabbed her to death in bed.

No-brainer, I'm going to Hogwarts. Hopefully to learn some magic.

Write. Write. Write. It'll lead me somewhere or help me get rid of the bad stuff.

Knowing that I'm hopefully giving people the feeling I have when I read an awesome book.

Write. The best thing I can do when I'm stuck is to write. It may be crap I'll never use or it may lead me somewhere. Either way, it's helpful and a great way to get started.
Also, don't let fear hold you back. It's okay to be scared but it shouldn't prevent you from doing something you love. It took me years to figure this out.

I'm putting the finishing touches on a novel called Little Big Brother, which will be released in the first half of 2020. Here's a summary:
Charlie is like most high school freshmen: prone to embarrassing moments and little experience with the opposite sex (okay, none). Thank God his older brother can guide him through it all. Well, sometimes. The dead can’t visit on a whim.
DeAndre’s visits are the only things keeping Charlie afloat as he navigates his teenage years. But this blessing is also a curse, straining Charlie’s friendships and threatening to derail his wishful romance with Samantha. Before Charlie can move on he needs to know if he’s really communicating with his dead brother or if it’s all in his mind as his mother and therapists believe. The clock is ticking. DeAndre tells him he won’t be around forever and the grief is tearing at the seams of Charlie’s relationships.
An encounter between DeAndre and Samantha may provide the answer, and how Charlie deals with it will be the difference between keeping those he loves and losing them forever.

Inspiration is everywhere. That's the best part of being creative. Inspiration comes from other books I'm reading, television, music or the feeling I get on a run.

The idea for Unholy Revelations has been in my head since college. I tried writing it twice before graduation but never got far. I'm not sure where the actual idea came from, but I've thought about it over the years and I finally typed it out.
