Should I Buy An XBOX ONE?

If you’ve followed this blog for any time at all, you’ll know that I’ve shown very little love for Microsoft in general. But if you know me personally, you’ll know that I’m man enough to admit when I’m wrong. I found myself faced with the same question very recently. Should I buy an XBOX ONE? During

Farewell, social media.

Farewell, social media. It’s been fun… I guess. The truth is that I’ve taken most of the last two weeks off of social media because I’ve been busy and it’s come to my attention how much more I’ve accomplished. Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Goodreads… The list goes on. While having met some incredible folks, each platform

What is Terminus and why you should care?

The short answer is Terminus is a brand new series co-created by Jason Halstead and myself. If you need more reasons to care, I’d be glad to name a few. First, our combined online reach is equivalent to that of a “Big 6” publishing house. We’ve each written best-selling books and appeal to a broad range

It Is Not How Hard You Hit

We’ve all heard the expression. Normally, I blog about the writing projects I have scheduled. This morning, I decided to write about something a little more personal. As I approach my 5 year anniversary with writing, it’s made me think a lot about what I’ve been through, where I’m at in my career and where

One Last Hero

Chapter 1 The Krall “As I stare onto the wolf which approaches – its gnashing teeth preparing for their feast, I understand that I, too, am a wolf. My own survival and the survival of all of humanity depends upon my ability to fight off this extraterrestrial predator which has come for our planet. Therefore

Welcome to Pulp Fiction

I wanted to get a blog post out there right as we left 2015 and ventured into a brand new year. I’m five days late. That means that half of the resolutions for 2016 have already been abandoned by now, right? Not mine. I’ve dedicated myself to reading a lot more and writing a lot

STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS

No, I won’t be pushing my way through the crowd tomorrow night. I’m not that big of a Star Wars fan. In fact, the biggest reason that I chase Star Wars merchandise (not that it’s hard to find) is to collect C3Po and R2D2, who remind me of my two kids. This isn’t a blog to

Publish With Success

I recently got an email asking for help. It’s not rare for me to get an email/tweet/message across Facebook wanting to know if there is anything I can offer that can help sell books. What is rare, as I’ve come to discover, is people actually taking the advice I give. You see, I don’t sugar

Predicting the 2nd Video Game Crash.

OK folks, so I’ve been following video games a long time and I’m here to predict the 2nd North American video game crash (the 1st happened during 1983). Now, keep in mind that I’m not an “expert” by textbook standards. I was, however, playing (and studying) the game market long before these so-called “experts” were

Gunship: Space Rebels

We’re just a chapter or two away from the finish line! Gunship: Space Rebels should be available by the end of 2015 and fans of the series are in for a treat. Meant as a prequel to the original series, Space Rebels will finally answer some of the biggest questions to date. How did Dalton
