Creating Around the Cracks
I know that I haven’t exactly been shy about sharing it, but I need to say this one again for those in the back. I’m an author, a father, and I struggle with Depression, Anxiety, and ADHD. My mind does…
The Reign is Over – Part 15
We’re almost at the finish line with this story, and to make sure I can transition into new material as soon as possible, the story posts are going to get longer. Today’s portion is a little over 1600 words, and…
