Intense And Confusing Games
Hello again!
Tonight my mom, sisters, brother, and sister’s friends decided to play Scrabble…not such a good idea. I never knew such tiny games could bring out the worst in people. I admittedly stormed out of the room screaming and pissed off over confusion over a rule. Now I look back on that and wonder what was going through my head and what type of hormones my body was pumping lol.
It’s very funny to see how everyone reacts. Some are very carefree and some become extremely intense ove

Finding the Time
One of the questions I get asked most often is how I find time to write.
As a single parent with four children ages 9-16, the short answer is; it ain't easy!
But I think it's a little more complicated than that.
I typically turn out 2-3 new books a year. There are exceptions like last year when I wrote only one - the second book in the Prophecy series - but most years I manage my two or three new books, if only because I am never as happy, never as grounded, as when my head is in a WIP. Almost as s

Hey everyone! It’s Tuesday again, and that means another ...
Hey everyone! It’s Tuesday again, and that means another blog from yours truly. Today I was working on a new song entitled Lia’s Theme, and if you don’t know why it’s called Lia’s Theme or what it’s trying to illustrate from the book, hmmm… we might have a problem lol jk. I’m extremely psyched about because it’s well on its way to being the best thing I’ve made so far. Sitting at my piano and contemplating the next step, I realized what my mind was doing and how it was processing ideas and thou

Music Monday - Mat Kearney
It's Monday morning and it's pouring outside. I'm in one of those funky, introverted moods that I reserve the right to be in on very rare occasions.
And for the record, I prefer to think of myself as complicated and artistic as opposed to moody and bitchy.
;)
Plus, it's a good excuse to work on my new pet project... *cough* it's awesome *cough*
On that note, I'm going to keep it short and leave you with one of my favorite artists and, in my opinion, a seriously underrated musician, Mat Kearney. Sorr

Teen Tuesday
Hello everyone! My name is Kenneth, I am 16 years old, 17 in July. I play guitar, piano, bass, drums, and sometimes sing. I really love music, movies, and books.
