Editing Leads to Writing
Yesterday I wrote a little about my feelings on editing. The soul crushing task that is editing. Today was back to the grindstone and trying to clean up the beautiful mess that is my sequel.

Yesterday I went with Leo on our first Papa play date. Me and my little guy and a friend and his daughter and son all went to a rather huge park. It was great seeing my little guy at play with kids close to his own age. He was really taken with with my friend’s … More Play Date

My Book at Kinokuniya
Yesterday I had an experience that made me feel like I was gaining ground as an author. Kinokuniya is a large bookstore here in Japan. Their sixth floor Shibuya location in Tokyo has been the bookstore that I’ve gone to for English books since moving to Japan in 2004. Not only is my book, Deadly … More My Book at Kinokuniya
