Weekly Update - April 23, 2024
The next draft of Action Figures – Legacies is done, which means it’s ready for editing! I’m hoping to get this out to readers before the end of June, but as always, we’ll see how things play out.
Now, for really real, I’m going to try and finish off the next Strongarm & Lightfoot book, the ending to which has been…let’s politely say, challenging. The pieced are all there, it’s just a matter of…

Weekly Update - March 12, 2024
Action Figures – Legacy, the first sequel-spinoff from the core Action Figures series, has undergone its first round of revisions and is now in the beta-reading phase.
It’s been a while since I discussed exactly what this new book is about, so here’s a refresher.
The country is still in chaos following ShadoWorks’ coup d’état, and the Hero Squad is running themselves ragged trying to round up…

Weekly Update - May 9, 2023
So, about the Writers Guild of America strike…
Long story short, it’s totally justified and I support it.
Below I’ve posted the most recent list of the WGA’s demands, and the studios’ responses to them, so dive it if you want to, but the gist is, writers want more money and greater job security. They’re not getting as big a cut of streaming revenues as they feel they deserve, and they want…

Weekly Update - August 29, 2023
First, in a bit of completely frivolous news, I finally added to my office, The Writer’s Block, an accessory I’d wanted since I planned the renovation: an arcade game cabinet. I picked the Midway Games collection from Arcade 1Up because it had a bunch of games I liked back in the day, such as Joust and Gauntlet, but also several Mortal Kombat games my wife — seen here before kicking my ass at…

After 15 years with the Falmouth Enterprise, where I worked as a general and political reporter, blogger, and editor, I left the news industry to focus on my creative writing.
In addition to my novels (more on that in a minute) I’m a…

Back to things being a little slow for a bit, but maybe not for long. I’m working on the next draft of Action Figures – Legacies while I continue to puzzle out exactly how the climactic scene of the eighth Strongarm & Lightfoot book plays out. Big action sequences are tricky.

Action Figures – Legacies: Second draft completed, now in beta-reading phase.

This was a long-ish weekend for me, and my wife was visiting family for the holiday, so I had all of Easter Sunday to myself to work on then next Strongarm & Lightfoot book — by which I mean book eight. Draconian Measures is almost ready to go, I’m just waiting on the cover art from Tricia. And speaking of which, enjoy some WIP shots of the cover in question!
This is always the most exciting…

Weekly Update - March 26, 2024
Alas, my staycation is over and I’m back to the day job, but I got a lot done over that week off, starting with fully finishing up The Adventures of Strongarm & Lightfoot – Draconian Measures. I got the final version worked up over the week and spent Sunday on the most tedious part, formatting. Now I just have to wait for Tricia to finish up the cover work — enjoy the rough concept to your right…
