I Need Your Opinion
I’m working on a new intro for my eBook, Any Tomorrow: The Calling. Would this make you want to know more about the story? Could the world end without you knowing? Could the dead surpass the living without you being aware? Could the desolation overtake the earth without you being…
A Review of “Fire Angels” by Joseph Richardson
A few weeks ago a friend passed me a copy of “Fire Angels”, a self-published novel by Joseph Richardson. Fire Angels is the story of David and Sara Cooper, and their son Noble, set in Walako, Florida during the period of 1915-1925. In this story Richardson attempts to weave a…

Speculative Fiction
I am glad to say that I have finally finished editing for content. I think I’ve caught as many dropped words, extra spaces, misused words, and problems with specialized vocabulary that I reasonably expect to. I have also begun editing for format using the Simplified Guide to Building a Kindle…
A Step Closer
As I work my way through this writing and editing process, I am constantly amazed by the all the changes I’ve experienced. For instance, I’ve finally decided that my novel will now be a trilogy. It started out as a thought, then grew and grew as plots and subplots developed…
