Ok. I missed a blog post in June. That one is on me. In my defense, however, June has always been the busiest, craziest time of the year, and this year was even more insane than in previous years. We had multiple birthdays, Father’s Day, our wedding anniversary, multiple family events (including a vacation). OnContinue reading “Woah. That went by fast…”

Yes, I was busy as a bee, but not in the way I wanted to be. I, unfortunately, only got a couple hundred words in this month. That’s right. Hundred, not thousand. I barely touched the thing. Which is disappointing most of all to myself. To be fair to me, it was a crazy busyContinue reading “Busy as a bee”

More time for writing, maybe? The weather is warming up, the plants are coming back, and I can’t say goodbye fast enough to the terrible weather of winter. Hallelujah. Now, on to the actual writing update. I’m very happy to say that I have officially finished chapter 4! I’m currently sitting at just over 19,500Continue reading “April showers bring…”

You know, I don’t really like winter. It’s cold, the roads are more dangerous to drive on, the days are shorter, and I am constantly sick. Speaking of, either myself or my wife were sick this past month for a majority of the days in February. All of this is just to preface the factContinue reading “Winter is the worst”

I should have known making such a vastly higher word count goal was bad juju, especially right after a holiday. I know this post is a few days late, so let’s get into the update portion. I was able to write around 3,000 words (I think), meaning I’m at a total of just over 13,000Continue reading “Oh, the winter doldrums”

Yes, you read that correctly! In case you missed the flurry of changes to the website (or aren’t friends on my Instagram/FB), I officially published Enceladus! You can find it for Kindle here or in paperback here, but also just searching my name on Amazon will bring it right up. It’s also available as partContinue reading “I am officially a published author!”

I’m just going to make this post short and sweet in honor of the holiday season. No one wants to sit down and read a random book update when there are presents to be bought and wrapped and festivities to attend. I didn’t get much of the first draft of book 2 done this month.Continue reading “Happy holiday delay”

Progress! Yes! It’s exhilirating to say that. Both chapters 1 and 2 of book 2 are done. (Seeing that little progress tracker on the home page go into double digits felt great.) In total, I’m sitting at just over 9,300 words so far, meaning I wrote just shy of 6,000 words this month. Now, thatContinue reading “Momentum”

I know that title is ambiguous, but it got you to click on this, didn’t it? Even teasing. The progress I’ve made is on the first draft of book 2 in the Terminus Strain trilogy. I haven’t had a ton of free time to dedicate to sitting down and writing, but I DID have oneContinue reading “Progress has been made”

I’m done with draft 3! It feels so good to finally say that. Let me tell you, that edit took me a lot longer than I expected. While most of the edits were little grammatical things (extra comma here, new paragraph there), there were also some small sections where I didn’t like the flow orContinue reading “Book One Inbound”
