I'm so "old school" that it has turned into MOLD school! Dad jokes, ftw.

"Get Gendel" getting on...

Ok, I have been lost in the grind (and IRL catastrophes) for months now. But I *AM* getting writing done!

I am currently writing the sequel to "Son of the Dragon". It is called "Get Grendel", and is all about the aftermath of the "Saga of Beowulf" (a classic tale, look it up), in the late 1800s/early 1900s. Currently writing Chapter 4 (of a planned 20 plus epilogue).

And yes...Vlad is BACK! Read more of this blog post »
