Let’s Talk About Ghosts, Man.
I’ve had an idea for a ghost story in my head for a year or so now. Then, I sprained my wrist and became a hunt and peck typist., of which I am not. Thus, it became hard to type forever.

Not just magic but an entire, functioning magic system. I freaked out fully. I decided to abandon my project. All the work … Continue reading Go With Your Gut
Let Me Tell You About the Literary Festival
I had a reading at the Cleveland Drafts Festival. It was over Columbus Day weekend. I had fun and really enjoyed it. I heard other writers and poets read their work in the Larchmere area of Cleveland. (Larchmere isn't a suburb-it's more like a small section of the city with a name) The venues were … Continue reading Let Me Tell You About the Literary Festival
My Weekend at #EWF19 (part 1)
I was chosen to be a Fellow at the Emerging Writers Festival this past weekend. It was sponsored by Old Town Books in Old Town Alexandria, VA.
