November 7, 2026 - Middle of Almost Nowhere Studio

I named my previous place of work Purgatory Studio because I knew I wouldn't be there for long.

After way too many false starts, I'm absolutely thrilled to announced that the Middle of Almost Nowhere Studio is up and running!



By 'up and running,' I mean my laptop is set up and all my notebooks are gathered in their appropriate places at arm's length around me. My music gear is not yet set up. Neither is my video gear. But I can write!...and believe me when I say I have been!



September 21, 2026 - Bloggathah Entry About Writing

Every once in a while, I like to write about writing. Every published author's method of telling stories is different. SHOULD be different. For those interested in learning about the fiction writer mindset (at the very least, my version of it), I offer this essay as a gift to your interest.

ACTUALLY WRITING ABOUT IT

BTW...more fiction is on the way. Really.



August 6, 2026 - PUBLISHED! "Hereafterwards"

It took longer than I expected, but I'm happy to announce that my latest story, "Hereafterwards," has been published!

This doesn't seem like a science fiction story to me. It's definitely not a 'mainstream' story, either. After some thought, and after realizing this will not be the only 'hereafter' related story I write (heads up...I have several more in mind), I decided to create a new bookshelf category: BEYOND-ESQUE FICTION. I, of course, reserve the right to change my mind and the bookshelf category name at any time, for any reason. One never knows with me.

"Hereafterwards" can be found on Smashwords.com.



October 26, 2025 - New Metzgerhund Retreat series book covers

I decided to have some fun with graphic fonts, and came up with a slightly different look for the Metzgerhund Retreat novellas. I kept the rottie where he was, of course.
