Excerpt from Dawn at Last

One can no more bury the past than control the future, though I suppose many of us try to do both, in various degrees. This is one of the central themes in Dawn at Last, a book about being wanted in three states . . . the past, the present and the future. One of the […]

Be My Guest

When I first released my debut novel it was kind of thrilling – the feeling, not the book – it’s exciting but not a thriller! Back then I didn’t realize how difficult it is have one’s book “discovered”. Naive I suppose, but I’m glad I was . . . without a certain amount of child-like […]

My Smashwords Author Interview

Smashwords has this really nice feature. Authors can select from a list of questions and provide answers that form an interview. There’s also the option of selecting your own questions. It’s a great way to explain one’s work, much easier than trying to do it in an essay or a blog post. Rather than send […]

Spanky and the Gang (Not the Group)

Lately I’ve spent a lot more time reading blogs than writing them. All kinds of blogs. It’s kind of strange how I tend to be drawn into the edgy ones. They tend to be on the raw side, sometimes deeply personal – but not drowning in self-pity – I can’t stand that. Some of them […]

Dawn at Last – Book Description

A smart and sexy tale about love, right to the last mysterious drop. It’s far from just fun and games, especially for Ms. Belauche, a professional counselor in matters of intimacy. She keeps her client list short and her list of friends shorter. In her quiet time, it is not her work that brings her […]

“Dawn at Last” is Now on Amazon

It’s taken a lot of time and effort, but it was worth it. Over the past month or so I’ve made some changes to my novel, previously published as Sunni Knows, but renamed Dawn at Last. By the way, did you know that apparently The Great Gatsby was once titled Trimalchio in West Egg . . […]

Seeing more than one’s self by dropping the “i”

Love, that eternal mystery, and shouldn’t it always be that way? For me that is a rhetorical question, because I know the answer, and in many ways. Does that make me an expert in love? Of course not, what a horrible claim that would be . . . in a way dishonorable to the divine […]

New Art Collection

I’ve just published a collection of new art works on my site. This includes three pictures from my ongoing series, “Typohhs” which is becoming very popular among my fans. If you’d like to have a look, here is one of the pictures, and you can click here to see them all – enjoy and have […]

Throwing You a Lazy Curve – Is it a Hit?

When it comes to art, I have so many works-in-progress that it seems when I pull out something I haven’t worked on for awhile, perhaps I’m digressing? Over the past few days I’ve touched up some of the typohh pictures, and tonight I’ll be publishing at least three, part of a “New Introductions” collection. Being that […]

A Nice Discovery

Wow, did I ever find a diamond in the rough in terms of web sites. I’ve written this post for a couple of reasons, and the first is to tell you a bit about this site. If you don’t know by now, I’m not easily impressed when it comes to mainstream news content. I rarely […]
