Four and a half predictions
Recently, I was invited on Bonnie D. Graham’s show, “YOU on Technology Revolution: The Future of Now” Radio. It was tremendous fun. Bonnie’s a great hostess and played the panel well. I was a bit hesitant about the show. The other three guests were all high-power players at the tops of their respective fields. Bonnie…Read More
Book Review: The Kaiju Preservation Society by John Scalzi
Always read the afterword. John Scalzi has written a another fun book. It almost didn’t happen. It wasn’t on his radar. Rather, he intended to write a more serious, literary, brooding novel. Then, well, 2020. He put that book on hold, perhaps indefinitely, and wrote something fun. Sometimes you don’t want Beethoven’s Fifth, you just…Read More
Copperfield Books Indie Author Fair
On Saturday, May 21st, I’ll be at Copperfield Books, in Spring, Texas, from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM for book sales and signing. Even though I’m not an indie author, they’re giving my publisher, Inklings, some space.

Live event tonight!
Tonight from 9-11 PM Central Time in the US, I’ll be live on Talk in the Night. Live. That’s a bit unnerving. No editing, no post-production clean up to get rid of the awkward pauses and verbal stumbles. Drop an F bomb and it’s out there for posterity. No pressure. The host, Paranormal Phil, and…Read More
Sci Fi Saturday Night
It’s Sunday morning, that means that my interview with Sci Fi Saturday Night is now live on their site. It was a wide-ranging and fun conversation with The Dome and Captain Cam. We talked about music, martial arts, writing, Dreamforge magazine, and, of course, SPARK. I was surprised at how quickly the time passed. They…Read More
Siren Radio
Yesterday, my interview on Siren Radio went live. I had the pleasure of speaking with the host, Alex Lewczuk, and co-hosts Cathy Manso and Jessica Burtis. It was a lot of fun and topics ranged from NASA and the space program to our favorite role playing games. (I’m a big Witcher, Mass Effect, and Skyrim…Read More
10 Questions with Alex Perry
I was privileged enough to be connected with Alex Perry’s writing/critique group through Houston Writer’s Guild a few years ago. Although we’ve never met in person, I’m a huge fan of her work and her honesty. She was the first person willing to give me honest feedback – “It’s boring. It’s like watching someone watch…Read More
My guest blog for Reader’s Entertainment
Is now live! You can see it here: Fictionally Factual I’ll post an expanded version of it here in a couple of days.

This was a busy week. Three interviews, a press release, and a couple of podcasts. The podcasts are about a month away from airing, but one of the interviews is now live and the press release is out. Here’s the press release from Reader’s Entertainment: SPARK It’s pretty cool to see your book cover on the…Read More
Book Review: The Paradox Hotel by Rob Hart
The Paradox Hotel is a love story set 50 years from now. The love story part is touching at times, the rest, not so much. The basic premise is that time travel has become a reality, but it’s limited to the US government and the very, very wealthy. Believable so far. I mean, it’s very…Read More
