Well folks, the time is nigh. A week from today we fly to Colorado to begin our eventual move to Pasadena. It’s an exciting and extremely stressful moment in our lives as we’ve only been married two weeks now and started to get a handle on life as a couple. Now its time to throw [...]

…the day
Its been some time since I’ve posted but I can’t apologize for that. Things have been crazy. Planning, the trying on of clothing, and writing of sizable, novelty checks that turn out to actually be worth what is printed on them have all come and gone. Today is the day. As it stands, my soon-to-be [...]
Why, it’s the day you get a cudgeling to remember
Taking a break now, I’d like to tell you all what is and has been going on in the world of David and the great balloon heist…err, the move to L.A. There have been many conversations and folks sent my way by way of conversations with folks that have lead me to understand, a bit, [...]
Frustrations when writing for tweens, a meandering journey
I wouldn’t call myself a children’s book writer, but I have been writing stories for tweens for the last two years (only one of the five have been published…ugh) and I’ve learned something that needs to be addressed: kids are smart. My editors, who I value as friends and bosses, and the higher-ups have made [...]
The thing about reality…
Its been a while. A long while. Since I last wrote I went back to college after a five year hiatus, got engaged, and graduated. After that has been a bit of a blur. Wedding planning hasn’t gone as we had hoped – you know, simple and easy – and we’re both trying to figure [...]
Too much work and not enough sleep equals leave me alone I’m trying
Truly this time away from my webpage has given me the fresh eyes needed to craft a thought provoking website…I’m tired and busy. Sure, I haven’t been writing much. Sure, I haven’t been able to to even think about this page one bit. Sure, I went through Spring Break claiming that I would write “at [...]
Checking in
Welcome back, you say? Thank you. Thank you. Today, we’re a day closer to whenever we’re able to launch SoulPancake. There have been so many set backs and mandatory adjustments made to our scheduled layout it’s difficult for me to update our progress without sounding like a tease. It’s all right, however; because, this will [...]
It’s been a long time, been a long time…
So, yes, I was gone for a while there. And for this, I’m truly sorry…sort of. It’s been a crazy few weeks . There’s been SoulPancake set backs and visits to Chicago and the spending of the majority of my time doing class work. This will all lead up, joyfully, to Spring Break, which is [...]
Doin’ it for the shorties…
Just as a note, I’ve posted up the new ‘Page of the Month‘ and continue to struggle to find time to really devote myself to this novel. After all, with all the school work and work elsewhere it’s just about finding time and devoting myself to it. There are these pangs of “yes, I can [...]
Things are happening… [updated]
Update: I’m also working on a Twitter project with my good friend Adam Dunn. You’ll hear more about this soon, we’re hoping. It’s been a week since my last post(s), and I felt it necessary to, again, remember that I need to write in this thing as often as possible. Here we go, folks! As [...]
