Waiting-

-
I've never been very good at waiting.  I was born impatient.  I was probably born early, I don't know. 
I'm waiting for the hard copy of Luthor to show up at my door for my final approval.  It should be here any day.  Finally, after all these years, I will see my prized piece of work in print.

But waiting has never been my strong suit. 

On a sadder note; I'm also waiting to see what happens with my brother, Kevin, who's been sick lately.  I don't want to divulge too much of his personal health problems, but it's pretty serious.  I heard from my niece last night and it looks like he will need surgery.  So, we'll  wait to see what happens with that.
We'll need everyone's thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Other than playing the waiting game, I have been decompressing from my hard work with getting Luthor finished.  But I know that my down time is coming to a close and I need to get back to writing.  I need to finish the second installment of my young adult series. (I am currently waiting to hear back from a publisher on the first installment. Yeah, waiting.)
I will also have a lot of marketing work to do when Luthor finally does become available.   There will be a lot of creative marketing ideas I'll have to come up with to get it out to as many people as I possibly can.  I'll have to hit book fairs, conventions, and so forth.  It'll be a busy time.  But it will be a fun time, too.

For now . . . I wait.

We've started a new year. We've started a new opportunity to be a better person. A happier person. It's no secret that I'm one of the worst bloggers around. Why? Because no one reads it. And that had been a difficult thing for me to handle for years. So I feel I don't need to try.  2018 was a bad year. No only because there's a new problem with the cunt in the White House every day, but with people in general. People have gotten more violent and uncaring. As a society, it is clear that we are declining.  It's been extremely difficult attempting to stay positive over the last 12+ months. But that is going to change. I am going to fight for positivity. No more depression. No more doubting myself or my writing. If people don't want to read my blog, big fucking deal! I don't care anymore. The time for change is now! No more thoughts of suicide (yes, there have been days). No more self-depreciation. I will do whatever I can to be successful

Freedom of Speech?

  It’s been a while since I’ve posted here. It’s been a while since I’ve done any type of writing. I don’t even have a website anymore. I wasn’t planning on writing anything, probably eve again, but lately, things have been changing.  The “Supreme” Court has been making very dangerous changes to the laws in our country. Particularly six of the judges. Six CONSERVATIVE judges, who are forcing us to go back to the 1950’s! Their latest stunt is allowing businesses to discriminate against LGBT+ people if they don’t want to serve them, because it’s against their religion. They’re claiming it falls under the First Amendment: freedom of speech.  Oh, yeah, we’ll, here’s some freedom of speech for you: Fuck them!!! Fuck all Republicans!!! Fuck Donald tRump and his illiterate cult. Fuck all the ignorant morons who claim being “woke” is bad.  Here’s, some freedom of speech: I wish I was able to tell the cunt that walks in wearing a MAGA terrorist hat that their not welcome in our place of busines

Finished another one

After an almost seven month break from writing, yesterday I finished another book. It is the first installment of a new new trilogy called My Leprechaun . The first book is titled The End of the Rainbow . I'm excited about this series, but I'm also filled with angst. Finishing a book and getting it ready to put out into the world and see what it does is usually an exciting time. There's always that chance that this book will be the one that puts my name on the map. In pure blog openness,  that's what I had hoped for when I released Reunion last October. It was my first ghost story, and I thought it would make a huge splash. But it didn't. I fought for months just to get a few reviews.  The excitement fizzled and faded. And something inside me turned off. That was the start of my break from writing.  I was sure I was done working so hard for nothing in return. But there was this story that I had wanted to tell for years. I had almost finished the first draft months
