I’ve given over a thousand books away over the last few days so why not a little more to open this New Year. “Storytellers” is free on Amazon starting at midnight on the 6th and going through the 7th and ending as soon as the 8th day of January begins. So if you would like a free copy please head over to Amazon and get yourself a free copy for your Kindle.

Pen pals and Sekirei
•December 15, 2011 • Leave a CommentWell I’m feeling bummed. I’ve joined a few pen pal sights recently in the hopes of getting a few pals to write to out there. I most especially wanted a few new friends from Japan, as I’ve become recently interested in their culture and language. But it seems not to be.
Apparently my age is a factor and most of the people at these sites appear to not be looking for friends, but possible mates instead. Admittedly I’m not looking as two marriages later, I’m not in such a hot hurry to find myself tied down again. I suppose it was naive of me to think people would see me as anything more then a dirty old man, but I did have hopes.
Alas I don’t think it is to be. I suppose the fact that I had been only interested in female pen pals could of been part of it, but I have enough real life male friends and since I write a lot of Paranormal Romance, the chance to hear a woman’s thoughts and feelings about things would be great for my writing. Oh well, live and learn.
I’m training up my Dragon speech software in an attempt to increase my writing speed. It seems my hands don’t want to work so well since getting out of the hospital. I hope my editors will be ready for the influx of work I hope to hit them with soon. I’m grateful that they work for free, as my writing could not afford to pay an editor at this point in my career.
My other big distraction these days is the discovery of anime. Well one in particular. I’m currently enchanted with Sekirei anime and manga. It’s absolutely awesome and I can’t seem to get enough. In fact I just got off Hulu after watching another episode. I love the heck out out of it and would love to get the PS2 game for it, if only I understood Japanese. I wish they would hurry with season 3.
Hopefully Revenge should be out soon. It’s another vampire book I’ve got in the works. It’s a bit different from what I’ve been writing recently, but I hope fans of my series will like it. Anyways that’s about it for now. I’ll write later.
Been awhile
•November 25, 2011 • Leave a CommentIt’s been a few months since the last time I wrote on my blog. Shame on me, but I have had a pretty good excuse. I’ve been sick and in the hospital for a bit. Unfortunately for me my Diabetes got out of control. So bad in fact that I had a blood infection as well as a bone infection. I lost two toes and even now I’m still in a wheel chair. A
ccording to my family, I almost died. So I think I have a really good excuse for missing a few posts. =)
I’m hoping that by writing more here, that it will spark my need to write at home. My writing has been on a back shelf the entire time I’ve been sick. I’ve written less then 1,500 this entire time. That’s why I’m hoping this will kick start my muse. So I’ve got my fingers crossed. I am definitely feeling the bug to write again. So hopefully I’ll be back to work again soon. Anyways that’s my update. I hope everyone else is well.
Thoughts
•July 27, 2011 • 1 CommentI’m thinking about moving my blog to blogger. I’m not sure yet as I have been on this site for what seems like forever. But blogger seems to be a lot more flexible, and I notice that most of the authors I know are on blogger rather then WordPress. So I’m not sure what I’m going to do, but it is on my mind the last few days.
It just seems like I have more difficulty getting this site to do what I want… Oh well. I’m getting ready to actually write out book three of Fallen Blood now. I’ve been meaning to do it for the last few days, but I’ve been really sick. I’ve got most of the hard stuff done, now all I have to do is put it on paper… or at least in this instance in my computer so we can begin editing it. I have no idea why I procrastinate doing this part.
It always seems like an impossible job when I actually start putting it in writing. Even when I’m down to the last few chapters. Must be psychological or something. I love creating, but I hate feeling like I’m on a schedule, or the reverse… that I’m not going to ever be finished. Anyways hopefully not much longer. The story’s done, just the writing and editing is left.
On that note I’m experimenting with Dragon speak now. Think it’s called that…at least near enough. It’s a dictation program. You speak into the mic, and it writes out what you say. I’m hoping it will increase my speed. I think it will as my test projects have gone incredibly fast. So all I got to do is pull myself away from the internet, and wall la!
Easier said then done. Anyways I’m off. Hope everyone’s summer is going good.
