If you can read this you're a Cyborg.
D. S. Halacy's Cyborg: Evolution of the Superman in 1965 featured an introduction which spoke of a "new frontier" that was "not merely space, but more profoundly the relationship between 'inner space' to 'outer space' – a bridge...between mind and matter.
Cyborg's are typically relegated to the realm of Science Fiction, but today-as I write this, they walk among us.

The wisdom of working slow.
Those of you that know me personally understand that I am a bit of a procrastinator.
OK.....those of you that know me personally understand that I also have a talent for understatement when it comes to divulging my personality problems too.
I've said many times that I simply could not be a freelance writer. It's not just that I have a tendency to procrastinate, it's that when it comes to

In pursuit of an appropriate Word Count.
To those of you that don't spend a fair chunk of their time writing, the premise of a word count isn't really that threatening. To a writer, the word count is essentially like the yard markers on a football field.
If your intent to to write a novel, you know you're going to have to come up with a story in the 40k words plus range, and more likely than not in the 70k plus plateau.

2011 Pedal the Penobscot Live Progress Map!
Sunday, September 11th I am going to be participating in the Pedal the Penobscot Bike Race. As the thought of me riding in a 28 mile bike ride is pretty much the height of hilarity in my book, I have decided to take the joke all the way and make sure everyone can see how out of shape I am. I've decided to put up a map that will track my progress in real time.
At 10:00AM tomorrow this map will

The Judgment Cove Launch Giveaway-Part 1

I am going to hold off for a day or two to announce the giveaway.
I found myself wondering how much interest it would generate without pictures of the prize, and decided to announce everything at once. I will let those of you that have already purchased Judgment Cove will only need to complete one more small step to become qualified-write an HONEST review on

Official Book Trailer for Judgment Cove
Here it is, at long last......the Official Book Trailer for Judgment Cove!
I say at long last because i've learned that it takes alot longer to do things by yourself, without voice actors or animators, lol
(Maybe in the future I'll become wealthy and able to afford to hire some of this stuff out, but in the meantime I'm having an absolute blast doing it all on my own.
Please let me know

A Note regarding distractions.
Distractions are a part of every writers life.
The writing process shares much with riding a bike in that you can expend every word in the English language trying to instill it successfully to a non-writer, but it's something each person has to learn for themselves.
There are always impediments to your work. Quite frankly, life get's in the way sometimes. People that will not think twice

Judgment Cove Render Test 1-Made with Blender
Here it is guys. Four hours of rendering (Hey, my machine has 8GB of RAM and a 6100+ processor, so it's not TOO weak), an extremely poor looping job done in Windows Movie Maker because I don't have my DLE reinstalled yet, and behold.
The camera isn't moving (This is only a test), and there's still alot of work left to be done with it, but I'm happy with the progress so far.
