The Power You Hold

Let me give you a word of advice. Never go up against a writer when your integrity is on the line. We know the power of words, and we make it our business to harness that power. We've taken down nations; we've raised up heroes. It would be a small matter to ruin you. This [...]

Subliminal, Chapter Thirty-One

I'm on my way again, headed for the edge of the floating city. I doubt the crazy man in the brown coat is really a time traveler, but if it makes him happy to believe he's going to find my friends…well, that's good. I don't want him following me. I'll bet he escaped from a [...]

Subliminal, Chapter Thirty

"You're just going to walk out?" Nessa looks so sad and I try to keep my face turned away from her. "Sorry, I have to go now," I say, while tying up my sleeping bag with my meager possessions in it. I've got an extra dress, my pistol, an old battered flashlight that still works [...]

X-Men and Stuff

I watched X-Men: First Class last night, and like the other four movies I really enjoyed it. Despite the heavily evolutionary nature of it, there are some very good themes to be found in the stories. As long as you look at them from a different perspective as the filmmakers do. One of the main [...]

Subliminal, Chapter Twenty-Nine

I stop in the street and listen. At night the colorful city turns into one big jumbled mess of blackness, except for the wild streets where bright lights and riotous people disturb the quiet until morning comes. Those streets are always busy, because everybody knows the world is ending and some of them who can't [...]

Why you should vote for Ron Paul…

Please watch this video. Paul is the only good candidate. He's the only one we can trust to be consistent with what he says and to stop our country from falling apart. A lot of very important primaries are coming up soon, and this video needs to be seen, so pass it along. Filed under: [...]

Subliminal, Chapter Twenty-Eight

Marlon tumbled through the wormhole and out onto a warm metal floor. Somebody grabbed him and rolled him over, and then backed off with a surprised curse. Marlon stood, ready to fight if he had to. He faced Jett. Justis Jett. I'm gonna kill Justis… "You're alive," the other man said, looking rather pale. "Of [...]

Skamania County, Washington – Presidental straw poll results

With 183 people casting votes for Skamania county, it may not seem like a big crowd, but the whole county is twice as big as Clark (which has a population near half a million) and has a population less than 10,000. The state caucus results won't be out for another hour or two, but in [...]

Subliminal, Chapter Twenty-Seven

Larken, you stupid girl, I tell myself. You got yourself stuck. Well, I was already stuck, I just didn't get myself completely unstuck when I had the chance. I'm bouncing around in the trunk of the car, while Mic drives back the way we just came. It's a long way. I think I should sneak [...]

Be a part of my next novel…by telling your story

You and I, and every other human on earth, has a personality and uniqueness that goes far deeper than what most people see. We all have secrets we wish we could share, burning inside us, yet the fear of what others will think keeps us silent. One of my main reasons for writing is to [...]
