  • It’s Been A While

    So yeah … it’s been a while. To be honest, I could have sworn that I’d posted since announcing my acceptance into Grad School. Seems I haven’t so let’s do a little recap of the past year or so. Yes, I am still pursing my MFA. Seton Hill has been good to me. I was… Continue reading

  • Edumacated

    So this happened …Yup – I’m going back to school. Specially, Seton Hill University’s Master of Fine Arts in Writing Popular Fiction. A big change for a guy who graduated college 20 years ago but hey, why not? Getting a MFA will allow me to actually do something with that English major I picked up plus… Continue reading

  • Soon

    Yes, something good is coming. Details by the end of the week (hopefully). Continue reading

  • Still Life : Cats in Window

    It was an abnormally warm February day. The cats approved. Continue reading

  • Grand Canyon, November 2016

    A lot later than I would have liked but Imgur was being a jerk. Finally I gave up and just linked things off of Dropbox.

  • Hark, A Rare Update Spotted in the Wild!

    When asked ‘How is the writing going?’, this has been the best response I’ve had so far:     Continue reading

  • Meet Indy

    Say hello to Indy. Our local humane society had an outbreak of ringworm, necessitating the need for a number of cats to be sent to shelter homes for recovery or to avoid catching the stuff in the first place. Indy first went to our in-laws place. It didn’t take long for us to figure out… Continue reading

  • A New Old Ball Game

    As I approach the answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything (more on that later this week), I figured I’d share a new hobby. Sometime last year I came across an article about Vintage Base Ball. In short, it’s playing baseball using the rules of the 1860s, dressed in the fashion of the day, and… Continue reading

  • Saving Throw vs The Plague

      So as it my annual tradition, I spent this past weekend sick. Because it wouldn’t be Spring and beautiful weather if I were not laying on my couch, miserable and hoping Steph wasn’t about to smother me with a pillow. Or maybe I was hoping she would. My thinking isn’t entirely clear on that.… Continue reading
