I will be appearing this Saturday at the 9th Annual Kentuckiana Independent Authors Fair, taking place from 10am to 4pm at the YMCA Community Center in La Grange, Kentucky. There’s going to be a great group of authors there, including some favorites of mine like Robb Hoff, Daniel Dark, Glenn Porzig, Mysti Parker, and many others. If you are within range of La Grange (not far from Louisville, KY) come on out! I love seeing readers in person and this is a great event for visiting and talking for awhile!Read More →

I had a great time at Books and Bourbon II this past Saturday in Lexington, at the Kroger Wine and Spirits store off Boston Road. The staff were great hosts, and took very good care of myself and Holly. The three hour event just flew by, and from what I could tell everyone had a lot of fun. This is another event where it was easy to talk and visit with those who attended. I got to meet some new readers who took home some of my books to try for the first time. I also had many other readers, some of whom have beenRead More →

Host Glenn Porzig interviewed me on an array of topics with a special focus on Dream of the Navigator, my recent YA/Dystopian novel that began the Faraway Saga. I really enjoyed this interview and it goes in-depth behind the writing of Dream of the Navigator. Here’s the episode, give it a look!Read More →

I had a great time this past weekend at my first 2019 event in Vevay, IN at the Community Art Center of Switzerland County! I love going to this venue as it is first-class and has a great atmosphere for visiting with readers. It is relaxed and laid-back, and very conducive to having great conversations, which is what I like about these kinds of events the most. I can really visit with readers individually and spend time with them. Had the amazing Robb Hoff stop by too (he’s 2nd from the right). He’s a supremely talented author and is very supportive of authors and eventsRead More →

About six years ago, my better half, Holly Phillippe, got an animal hoarder busted that she had become aware of, close to where she lived in Indiana.  In addition to 92 dogs kept in a trailer, 25 cats had been packed into a bathroom on the same trailer. Holly followed up with the animal shelter coordinated with the raid, and two of the cats made it very clear that they wanted to go home with her that day. One of them was a nearly two year old Russian Blue cat, named Dubious. Dubious came home with Holly severely overweight, at 30 pounds.  Holly took careRead More →
