To read or to write...? That is the question.
Here I am, contemplating the option of my near future. I am about to finish reading The Passage by Justin Cronin. I'm about 20 pages away. Which puts me at a crossroads: do I pick up another book and start reading? Or should I continue on writing my next novel, The Network? Or should I try some strange hybrid of the two? I have always believed that a good writer is one who reads and writes together. Maybe I'm inaccurate in that assumption... I don't know. But I do know that where I have left off in my novel is a very important part of the story, and I need to get back to it. My main character needs me. Who knows, maybe I need him, too.
I recently uploaded 3 of my short stories to the Kindle...
Star Maps
Wind Chimes
The Case of the Oreo Cookies
Wind Chimes and Star Maps are stories from the Terraformance Anthology. I'm still working on the 3rd story, and there are bound to be more added. I love these stories! Take a look at 'em, if you've got a free moment!

Sindarin for "Live to me, friends." Basically, I attribute my love for books to J.R.R. Tolkien. Nobody else has created such a marvelous, realistic, and perfect world. Though entirely fictional, Tolkien's Middle-Earth History has influenced my life enormously. Because of him, I have sought out a greater imagination. I dedicate this blog to him as a person, and to the world he invented. Elen sila lumenn omentielvo! (A star shines on the hour of our meeting)
