Produce. Promote. Persist.
I think if I had another life to live, I’d be a film score composer. Films tell stories, but music does too.
My books
Listed below are all my books currently available for purchase. They exist in both ebook and paperback formats on select retailers. If you find it difficult to purchase them at full price, please talk to your local library or wait for a sales promotion (because they do happen :)). The best way to stay informed…
Living the research
After going through my editor’s changes on Vermin, I settled back into writing the first draft of my third book, David’s Summer. As I may have mentioned before, the story is inspired by my true life events. And that’s partly what makes it so difficult.
Vermin manuscript is back
As I’ve been working away on my third book, David’s Summer, my editor has been hard at work on Vermin. Well, it’s back, and that’s a good thing.
Writing between mountains
I’m about to launch into some deep symbolism, or complete cliche. I won’t know until I’m done. It’s all part of the process. Bear with me.

Morgan Spurlock’s RATS
Morgan Spurlock’s RATS is being released to Discover Channel soon, and it couldn’t be better timed.

While my Vermin is with my editor, I was going to work on my cover. Since that would take a week at most, I decided to change the plan and begin my third book. Get the writing ball rolling. Maintain momentum.
Manuscript of Vermin completed
I just finished the first draft of my next book, Vermin. This time is always a little bitter sweet for me, since it’s time to step away from the story and characters that have grown on me for the past four and a half months. I’ll miss them.
A gift that is Gene Wilder
As the world mourns the passing of Gene Wilder, I am reminded of the films that shaped my youth, specifically Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, Young Frankenstein and Blazing Saddles (which I saw in theatres).
