I’m not gonna prevaricate … this month crept up on me really fast and I was not prepared to write anything compelling for this newsletter. But I do have news to share. On a joyous note, my brother got married yesterday to a wonderful lady I am so hap...

In lieu of something interesting to say about the beginning of 2024, I bring you recommendations for reading material. Of course, you can always read Wyldling Snare and Wyldling Trials if you haven’t yet. However, if you’re all caught up with the Wyl...

The Magic of MusicHello, friend! How did your “war moon” go? Peacefully, I hope. March was a busy month for me, but now we’re into April and hopefully some more spring-like weather, here in Wisconsin. As anyone who’s ever lived in the Great Lakes reg...
Hello, friend!I told myself I wouldn't send out newsletters more than once a week, but I just couldn't resist this time... because I am so excited! This afternoon, the amazing USA Today best-selling fantasy author, Katherine D. Graham, is interviewin...
New Month, More Books!I've recently marched forth into an epic journey... of the reading variety. In other words, I'm experiencing the epic journey vicariously through some intriguing characters. Not content to critique eight plus different authors'...
