The Ultimate Goal
What is my goal as a writer? Not just daily, weekly, or monthly goals for words and whatnot. What is my big vision, when the writing is all said and done, what is my Ultimate Goal? When I first started out writing, I was just making stories and trying to figure out the craft. I didn’t have any goal in mind other than to finish the damned thing. At some point, I did dream of someday publishing,…

Write What You Know
In this week’s blog, I am returning to something I have talked about before, but I thought I would give it another run. One of those pieces of advice that gets thrown about without much explanation is ‘Write What You Know’ – but what does that mean? I am a fantasy writer. That means that I make up things with magic and monsters. But in our world, those things do not really exist. So, how exactly…

State of the Pulp - March 2026
Greetings and welcome to the State of the Pulp for the month of March. Yes, I realize that this is April 1st. And no this is not a joke. I legitimately got so busy with life that I forgot all about yesterday. In addition to forgetting this post I forgot about a meeting for one of my kids and ended up being 5 minutes late, but I made it. And, as they say – better late than never. So here are my…

A Tale of Two Genres
I’m not going to begin with a bad misquote from Dickens here, but I would like to talk about mixing genres and finding your niche in the world of story telling. The days of having broad genres is well behind us, though it has only be in recent years that we have exploded. No longer are we simply Fantasy Authors. Now we have sub-genres and even sub-SUB-genres of Fantasy. When I had started out…

Words to Write
It’s the first blog of the New Year, so let me begin by wishing you all a better 2026 than whatever you had in 2025! Because it is a new year, like many folks, I have made plans for this year. Not resolutions, per se, but plans none the less. You see – I have got me some Words to Write! Before I kick this blog off into my weekly post, just a friendly reminder that The Grimoire Detective: Heart…

5 Days until Book Release
Here we are – FIVE days until the release of Heart Scars! I am so very excited to have this book in my hands and on my shelf next to book one. Having a single book on the shelf is pretty cool but having a PAIR of books is actually quite nice. With the release of this novel, the next project begins almost immediately. In order for me to keep up with the 13 week schedule, I will start Editing the…
