The Reign is Over – Part 7
I’m not gonna sugar-coat it: that was a heck of a break. I journeyed across the state in horrible physical discomfort and illness, celebrated a holiday with the in-laws, missed my mother terribly but not painfully, and played video games…
Tiny Human, Living Disease Bucket…
I have a three year old. So when he catches whatever plague is making the rounds, inevitably the wife and I catch it as well. This time its a wonderful flu right as Christmas makes its appearance. Woof. No post…
The Reign is Over – Part 6
These last few nights have been a riotous shite-show of a sleep schedule. I have gotten roughly 1-5 hours of sleep each night for almost the whole week. I can’t lie to you, last night no amount of medication or…
The Powerful Play Goes On…

The Reign is Over – Part 2
I was horribly ill on Wednesday. It was extremely ugly, and has sapped me for most of today. Writing is going to be a chore, so let’s keep the intro blessedly brief. Without further bloviations… The Reign is Over –…
Another November Come and Gone
I have been writing since July of 2016, and this past November was my first foray into the maddened jungles of NaNoWriMo. My first fan, great friend, and heckin good editor Karyn Stecyk (@karynlstecyk) finally convinced me that now was…
