Submissions are Open

Posted on by

You may or may not be aware, but Jeffrey Hite and I are putting another anthology together to be published in early 2015.

Watch Out 2014

Posted on by

On only the second day of 2014, I’m back at it and moving fast. I kind of have to be. I have contracts for two books to come out this year (Mik Murdoch: The Power Within, 5 Rivers Publishing & Jack Kane and the Statue of Liberty, Champagne Book Group/Burst Books) plus an anthology to put together and a possible self-published book as well. That, of course, doesn’t include writing more books and short stories, doing school visits and attending my first Calgary Young Writer’s Convention as a guest. Oh yeah…I think I might have a day job, family and podcasting to mix in as well. None of that lends itself to a slow, leisurely paced life for this year. But […]

2013 Holiday Wishes

Posted on by

I had intended to put a post up for Christmas, but time got away from me. I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season and continue to enjoy the remaining days of 2013.

That balances everything out, right?
