Hey all, Welcome to the Holidaze. I just sent off “The Shoreless Sea for beta reading, and it’s not due back until the end of the month. Once I get it off to the publisher in mid December, I won’t start on the next project until the start of the new year. So I have that rarest thing in a writer’s life, a little brain downtime. Not that my regular job isn’t handily filling those extra hours. But it is nice to have a bit for the creative part of my brain to reboot and refresh before the next thing. … Read more

FIVE STAR REVIEW: The Rising Tide

by
The Rising Tide - Drops of Ink Review

Anne Barwell at Drops of Ink just gave me a stunning review for “The Rising Tide”: I’m already a huge fan of this author, and this series. The Rising Tide reminds me why I read and enjoy Science Fiction. I love love the enormous scope of the story and its diverse characters, and the social commentary along the way. The science fiction references were an added bonus for my inner SF geek. I also got a kick out of the fact that one of the characters in this one is originally from New Zealand!… I’d recommend The Rising Tide to … Read more

Hey all, The shocking sudden death of author Ethan Day this week, along with the passing of my own stepfather Tony a few weeks ago, has gotten me thinking about death, and mortality, and artistic legacy. Ethan’s own legacy will be measured at least in part by his many published books, and by his time stewarding the Gay Rom Lit con, along with his wonderful co-conspirators. But he will also be remembered for his sweet, happy demeanor, and the integrity with which he lived his life. For me ,this was most evident in the way he wound down his Wilde … Read more
