Self-publishing. A year in review.
I pressed the ‘publish’ button on Amazon for the first time on January 27, 2013, sending Balance out into the world to be discovered by anyone looking for a different take on the battle between Heaven and Hell, good and evil. The 12 months since have blown me away, and exceeded every expectation I have […]

Bound. 50,000 Words and Rising
It took me a bit of extra time, because I had to go back and re-write almost half of the first half (and IMO make the story a LOT better), but I’ve reached the 50,000 word milestone that signifies the approximate midway point of the first draft. It’s a big deal for me, because my […]
