Above and Beyond
Sometimes, you want to go above and beyond. Sometimes, you want to provide more than asked for. I feel that now is one of those times. I’ve been writing a new novel and the more I’ve thought about it, the more I wanted to make it something special. So, I’m taking steps in that direction. [...]

A Deal With The Devil
First things first… I love reading something different. If it is just a twist on a familiar theme, it better be a damned good twist. But, if it is a take on a theme I am unfamiliar with, it just makes my day. Enter J.A. Redmerski’s Dirty Eden. I met Redmerski, online, via Goodreads and [...]

Brave – A Personal Review
Every once in a while, a film comes along that is more than just pure entertainment value. As much as I proclaim that I only go to the movies to escape the reality of current, modern life…I admit that there are a few films which reach right down into my guts and twist them a [...]

Friday is Art Day!
Art has always been in my blood in one shape, manner or form for as long as I can remember. I have spent long hours painting, writing, designing web interfaces, and photographing damned near anything that caught my eye. For today’s F5, I want to share a few favorites from other folks’ artwork. Enjoy! In [...]

The Asylum Scene
One of the major players in the writer’s toolbox is the ability to describe something. With only words, a writer must be able to bring a subject to life for the reader through the simple but terribly difficult act of visualization. For example, read the paragraphs below and let’s see how well I can bring [...]

Man On A Mission (for Food!)
So, yes I am on a mission – I refuse to call it a diet. I am on a mission to eat better and lose a few pounds. Last year I was maintaining at around 240. Today I am at 219 and dropping little by little. The Wife is pleased, more for the reason that [...]

Wham, bam, thank you ma’am. And, yes, you are welcome. [...]

The Race and Tech
This past weekend, the Wife and I photographed the North Texas Susan G. Komen For The Cure “Race For The Cure” event, here, inPlano. It was, as always a very upbeat, supportive affair with hundreds of race participants, supporters and breast cancer survivors. We were in the Survivor tent area and, let me tell you, [...]

Fave Five Vampires – Bite Me!
As I trundle through my new WIP, I find myself with the urge to revisit some old friends. This week’s Friday Five (F5) is going to be my favorite vampires (either in a movie or a book). To be truthful it was a large list to begin with, but I think the ones I’ve chosen [...]
