I have had the pleasure (and continue to have) of collaborating with several extremely talented people and I have learned the key to successfully collaboration. Another ‘C’-word: Communication. Without proper communication, any project will likely fail. When you are working with another person who is also busy, that failure is practically guaranteed. Take, for example, the Action Pack Podcast, which is scheduled for release the end of this month. Scott Roche, JR Murdock and myself are each writing a story in serial form with a new episode every month. That means writing, recording and production of the podcast each and every month.

I had the original idea flash through my brain when I heard what two of my online friends (JR Murdock and Scott Roche) were planning this year. They both have some pretty aggressive writing schedules for this year. Somehow, their plans made me think of a TV show I watched when I was young. […]

Last episode I mentioned a new project I’m working on with Jeffrey Hite. We are co-editing an Anthology I’ve referred to as the Mad Scientist Handbook.

Jeff and I have renamed the book to A Method to the Madness: A Guide to the Super Evil. Submissions are open and you can find more information at madscientistanthology.wordpress.com. I’ve also finished writing the first episode of Boy Scouts of the Apocalypse for The Action Pack Podcast. The first Action Pack episode along with the accompanying eBook will be available at the end of February. We have […]
