As y’all probably noticed, I haven’t blogged in a few weeks. Sorry about that. I’ve been in Dallas for a couple book signings. The traveling and planning took up all my time (along with writing book two, woot!), but here’s a bit about the trip: In short, Dallas was amazing. I haven’t lived there in […]
I’d always assumed book 1 of a series would be, by far, the most difficult. Not only did I have to come up with the entire world of my characters, settings, etc…, I also had to decide exactly where to insert the reader. As I’ve mentioned before, I rewrote the entire beginning to The Gay […]
I was sitting here writing a completely unrelated post when 2015 began swimming through my head. I’m so focused on everything that needs to be done (and the fact my writing “career” is still so fledgling) that it’s hard for me to take a step back. But when I did, I heaved a big, “Wow.” […]
I was talking with a friend the other day about the Scorpion Underwear incident. If you’re scratching your head, check out another blog post dedicated to the experience. As we were chatting, he said, “That’s gotta be the weirdest thing you ever got.” Now that gave me pause (look at me writing all fancy). We […]
Today is Thanksgiving, a time to take a step back and appreciate everything we have. At first, I was having a hard time feeling thankful. I know Kermit and Freddy Krueger endorsed my book. But that just wasn’t enough to get me in the holiday spirit. I mean, converting Kim Jong Un to a pro […]
Last week, I showed a picture I’d photoshopped of Oprah Winfrey holding my book. Because several people thought it was real, I did a post on how independent authors and how we are really nobodies. Well, not all of them. But I pretty much am. Anyway, I think that post was serious enough to warrant […]
I recently posted an image of Oprah holding my book: The pic was totally Photoshopped and, because I’m an independent author, I thought it was obvious I’m about as far removed from Oprah Winfrey as anyone could be. To quote Joey from friends: I’m so far removed from Oprah, she’s just a dot to me! […]
It’s here!!!! It’s here!!!! It’s October 27th which means my book is finally live! Let’s take a few seconds so the news can sink in. Two and a half years of hard work has finally come to fruition. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. OK now that we’re done, here’s the relevant info. First, you can get the eBook here: […]
Sunday is/was National Coming Out Day. I could share tons of emotions, stories, and everything that the whole coming out process can entail. But I won’t. Instead, I’ll let Blaize, my main character, do that for me. To that end, I’m thrilled to share the first chapter of my book: Click here to read the […]
I recently received the first printed copy of my book: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That’s pretty damn cool! I was in the middle of my most brutal workout when it arrived. Talk about a pick-me-up! And it felt so good to finally hold tangible proof of years of hard work. But don’t get too excited yet. The edition […]
