Dale Day If you want to be a successful writer, you have to approach it as a job. It takes hours of research and constantly honing your craft.

Dale Day Actually several projects:

Updating my blog, A Soldier's Stories @ http://lvcabbie.blogspot.com to include memories of my first tour of duty in the US Army.

Updating my other blog, Father Serra's Legacy @ http://msgdaleday.blogspot.com to include some posts about California history I posted on the above blog.

The novella, Juanito's Mission, about the founding of Mission San Gabriel Archangel

And the real big on, Leatherjacket Soldier, the Life and Times of Captain Fernando de Rivera y Moncada who was also a Spanish governor of California and a true Mexican hero.

And after that, who knows?
Dale Day I was reading before I went to kindergarten. Being an avid reader just naturally leads to wanting to write.

Beside, I enjoy the researching almost as much as the writing.
Dale Day I realized that, while my book, novels, and short stories are acceptable to all ages, I had not yet written one about the California missions directed at young people. So, I decided to write Juanito's Mission about the founding of Mission San Gabriel Archangel. Not finished yet but will be about 50,000 words when completed.
