Second Quarterly Update
Life is a blur. One moment I’m writing the January blog post and the next we’re already half way through the month of April. Holy cow!
A lot has happened since I last wrote. Like a lot.

Welcome 2024!
As part of a new years resolution, I am planning on not using others art (as cool as they may be), and plan on show casing my own here.
I have a lot of coloring pages that I have made that I plan on allowing people to buy from me. So while some I will keep for myself and color, the rest I will sell as it’s a lot for me to do both. This newest piece is a scene/idea from the book that I’m…

The End of the Year
My home by Allagar – Deviant art
Here we are at the end of the year. This has been a crazy time and filled with tons of new stuff for me to unpack. I realize that I missed November’s time for posting and for that, I am deeply sorry. It’s always a bit of a nice surprise to see how many people come to my website to check for anything new when I haven’t posted. To be fair I only missed last month…

Happy Birthday! Here's Your First Rejection Letter
So I heard back from Shadow Mountain on my submission for March of the Necromancer. They have unfortunately said no, but on the plus side I get to go out and pitch the story to more people to hopefully get someone to pick it up. For those of you who have wondered why I haven’t just self published it, there are two reasonable answers to that.
I don’t have the funds to put into that kind of a…

I Did It!
5 years ago, I sat in my Creative Writing classroom at Utah Valley University (UVU), talking with my fellow classmates and a teachers aid when our conversation turned to my favorite topic. Dragons! I don’t remember exactly how that conversation went, but it was eventually brought up that I hadn’t seen many stories with dragon zombies in it. Of course there have been stories, I just hadn’t found…

I'm in a Hurry!
Happy late Father’s day and Happy late Fourth of July! It has been a crazy couple of months. June was the month of Vacations for me and my family. If I wasn’t so busy you guys would have gotten a similar post to the Mother’s day one and a little more info on what I had been up too sooner.

Happy Mother's Day!
Happy Mother’s Day everyone!
Art by Jeff Easley
I am so very grateful for the mothers who have entered into my life. I’m very grateful for my own mother, who raised me and helped me to learn right from wrong, and has helped nurture my creativity.

Cause its Hot then it's Cold
It seems like this year can’t be more confusing with the weather. Right when it supposed to be warming up is when we get the most snow. Things were really looking up; the sun was out a little more and the temperature seemed to be on the rise as well. And then it hit with another snowstorm. A week after that it was back up to over 70-degree temperatures, only to drop back down to the 50’s…

March…The Wettest Month of the Year
Whew, this year is flying by! It only seems like yesterday we were hearing about COVID coming to the U. S., but that was three years ago now. Things have certainly changed since then, but I still feel like I am the same person. Some times everything rushes by us before we even know what is happening.

Forging Ahead
Forging ahead. Who knew that looking back on the things I've done can feel so good?
From now on my posts are going to do 3 things in each one.
I am going to look back at an accomplishment from the previous year.
Talk about activities that I am currently working on, if possible, unrelated to my own writing projects.
Update Muldrix story if I haven’t already and give updates into other current Works in Progress (WIPs) that I am writing.
I’m hoping that by giving myself a…

A Look at 2022
Thoughts and reflections of the year before, and what is going on with my writing.
What a Year 2022 was. So many things happened that have changed my life and I can’t say that I was the same person a year ago.
Bookwyrm by Milica Čeliković
So often we come to December 31 and say “Whelp, its a new year, time to dredge up last years new years resolutions and try again.” But what is wrong with taking a minute to sit back, and look retrospectively at the previous year? So many…

Merry Christmas, and God Bless!
Merry Christmas, and God Bless!
This year has been a hard one.
Or rather it has been a rollercoaster of emotions and feelings. After my post in October my daughter was born 2 days later! She came a month early, but it was a wonderful late birthday present for me to be able to see her so soon. She has blessed our family in ways that I have yet to comprehend (probably from the lack of sleep), and I hate every minute that I can’t…

Rings of Power!
First things first, I have so far watched the first 3 episodes to The Rings of Power and I am loving it! As a long time fan of Tolkien (having watched the movies and read the books and The Silmarillion many times) I enjoy what they have done with the show, but I get where the Tolkien purists are coming from. There is a lot that they leave out, and a lot that they change.
And yet, I wonder if we…

Story, TV Show, and a Review!
Sorry this is coming a day late, life has been crazy. Hope you enjoy the post! Until next month. #dragons #AuthorLife #Muldrix #RingsOfPower #SerialNovel
What a month! Things have been crazy, and I don’t feel any less tired. Fortunately, life carries on and with it some more developments in my life. I am still writing, which is a good thing as I always feel more stressed when I don’t have the time to write and work on the stories that I have building up in my brain. I am still reading a few good books out there and hope that you will enjoy the…

It's a Girl!
It’s a Girl!
In case you didn’t hear the news before now, my wife and I are expecting our 4th child and we found out on Monday that it is a girl! We are super excited and so are our kids. Most of us wanted a boy, but we’re happy for this new addition anyway. It does mean that my wife and I had to throughout all the names that we had been saving since we were thinking it would be a boy. Oh well, back to the…
