My, my, how time flies. Doesn’t seem like it’s been that long, but damn if it hasn’t been MONTHS since I last posted anything at all. There’s definitely been some big events since I last updated everyone, and some big changes I’ve had to undertake, but I would like to think I’m finally starting to get myself back on track properly. So, let’s start with a quick(ish) rundown of what all has been...
Moving Forward / What Story Ideas do YOU Want to See?
Now that the Haunted Asylum Misadventure has come to a close, I’m going to be shifting focus to another story, though I’m probably going to wait until after New Years to post the first chapter of it. In the meantime I’m going to finally get up the next worldbuilding article on the City of a Thousand Delights. I haven’t decided just yet what will posted after that, but...
Consume Less, Create More
A bit late this week, but I’ve been fighting off what might be the flu; it’s been going around the office something fierce, and I think it’s trying to bring me down. So far it’s not gotten worse than a runny nose, a cough (which seems to be developing into a seasonal cough I always seem to get around spring that lasts forever but then suddenly developed into a sore throat...
New Beginnings as I Struggle to Change Myself
Hey, everyone. It’s been a while, and that’s completely my fault. This last year has been a struggle, mostly with myself, as I try to find some kind of balance in my life that I’m satisfied with. Let me lay it out…I’m going to be 37 this year, and with that, there’s been a lot of baggage on my mind. The big one is that my father and his brother both died in...
The Providence – Part 2
“I knew that getting inside the Providence was not a simple task, but I had no idea that it involved two hours of trekking through old drainage tunnels and part of the active sewer; it even involved sliding down a dislodged drain pipe using a rope. I learned from Jacob, one of the urbex guys, that all the manholes around the building itself had been welded shut, and all of the adjoining...
The Providence – Part 1
“I don’t know what it is about that building that draws my attention so much…it’s like it’s always nagging in the back of my brain, and I find myself going out of my way to drive by just to catch a glimpse of it from the freeway. It’s old, built in the 1920s, back when nobody had a clue that the bottom was going to fall out of the stock market in a few years. ...
Struggles in Writing – YouTube
YouTube…the great distraction. Probably my most fearsome enemy when it comes to writing at all. I can’t count how many times I’ve said to myself “I’ll just watch a few vids and hit the keyboard”, and then by the time I realize what’s happened, hours have passed and it’s time for bed. Years ago, I never had that kind of problem. Then again, years...
The Struggle Begins
And it is always a struggle to write, especially these days. Seems like no matter what I do, I can’t find the time. So, in the coming months, the goal is to make the time, and hopefully this page will be a part of that. Here I hope to keep track of not only the myriad characters, worlds, and stories currently bouncing around in my head, but also to just get some thoughts out there in...
