The Second Coming Now At B&N – And It's Cheaper!

So after much waiting, Smashwords has sent my book off to Barnes & Noble.

That makes it available at Amazon, B&N, iBookstore, iTunes, and Smashwords. But here's the catch, when it was sent off to B&N the price at the time was $1.99 so until they catch up, my book is now cheaper at B&N until the error is corrected. :)


Sadly, there is no synopsis there. So no one knows what my book is about. :(

To start, can you tell me a little about yourself?

To start, can you tell me a little about yourself.

Sure, although I never really know what to say to that. Something wise and writerly, one would hope. I live in Tennessee with my wife, daughter, and a small army of loyal but dysfunctional pets. I've loved reading for as long as I can...

The Incomparable Betty White

For those that didn't catch SNL with host Betty White, here's a sample of what you missed. She gave the show a breath of much-needed fresh air.

Why I'm Glad Adam Lambert Didn't Win

It's important to have queer role models, not only for GLBT youth, but also for children of same-sex parents. In our house, we often point out to our boys when someone in popular culture is queer. Although they have friends with same-sex parents, it's important they see it in role models and entertainers. It normalizes their experience. That's why I'm so glad Adam Lambert didn't win American Idol. His career will do much better without the burden of that crown on his head. And I have one...

To start, can you tell me a little about yourself.

I'm just your typical lazy hack, trading words for magic beans. I simultaneously believe my stories have a deeper meaning that will save the world and that they are self-indulgent fantasies designed to amuse myself and nothing...
