The Greater Evil release day!

It's Tuesday, the day when books enter the world of readers so that may be enjoyed, judged, and then nicely arranged on the shelf in the reader's sorting of choice.

Today is a special Tuesday for me because I have a book that's going off to join the crowd of other fictional adventures. *sniffles* Why, just a year ago this little book was a mess of notes and rage, then it came together, made up its mind about what it wanted to be, and now it's ready to go off on its own. BEST OF LUCK TO Y...

Politics and The Greater Evil

I have a book coming out on Tuesday. It’s a dark fantasy political thriller. Huh what? If that wasn’t a thing before then it is now! Listen: the book has a scene where a demon kills a couple dudes and sticks one guy’s decapitated head in the hollowed out torso of the other dude. The book also has a political prison, the smothering of the first amendment, and a look at how evil convinces us it is a force of good by suggesting that it’s doing all of this with our best interests at heart. So ye...

THE GREATER EVIL: Influences

Unless dust bunnies are self-aware and feeling inspired, art is not created in a vacuum. Though I take pride in coming up with original ideas, I also must acknowledge that the things which I’ve enjoyed or learned from have a part to play in the things I create. Example: I would’ve never written In the Shadow of Extinction had I never seen a Godzilla movie before.
 
Today I mean to show some love to the primary influences for The Greater Evil and how they helped shape my book into what it is.

Rakasa is now available across the web

So that I could try out what it was like having a book in the Kindle Unlimited catalog, my horror novella Rakasa started out as an Amazon exclusive. But after six months I've decided to opt out of the Kindle exclusivity and Rakasa is now available for multiple ebook devices from various online bookstores. The choice is yours!

Google Play
iTunes
Kobo
Barnes & Noble's Nook
and of course it still remains available for Amazon's Kindle.

So long, 2016

2016 was a sucker punch. It showed up, full of promise and smelling a bit like a brand new car. The New Year understood that most of us had a less-than-super 2015. We arrived with baggage, which 2016 kindly took off our shoulders with a gentleman’s smile. Then, right when we were starting to feel comfortable in the new year, 2016 surprises with a throat punch. The Starman left the Earth and it was downhill ever since.

I’m going to remember 2016…

I will remember 2016 for the notable celebrity de...

Top 15 Films of 2016

How can I feel my 2016 list of the year's favorite films is complete without having seen the new films from masters like Scorsese, Verhoeven, Jarmusch, and Chan-wook Park, just to name a few? Answer: it isn't. However, as a film lover, I feel like ending the year without any such list would make me feel like the yearend traditions are incomplete. So, here we go, missing pieces and all.

2016: Missing People

Celebrities die. They’re mortal like the rest of us. But some had managed to convince us that perhaps they would live forever, that by achieving greatness they’d become immortal. And indeed, the legendary accomplishments of David Bowie, Prince, Muhammad Ali, John Glenn, Harper Lee, and more will live on long after they’ve left the mortal plane. This year has given us too many gut punch moments where we’ve read the name of a favorite person trending online and immediately feared the worse.
