Creator Journals 5/8/25

Wanna lay in bed today. I got a whole lot done yesterday. Went to work, finished writing a chapter, read and revised for some friends. Today I got up and recorded a podcast episode at 11am and now I feel pretty much spent. I think I’ll still try to squeeze out at least a halfContinue reading “Creator Journals 5/8/25”

Creator Journals 5/7/25

My new book is coming out in two days! I should probably be excited about that, but it seems I’ve already emotionally moved on to my next project. I should probably take the time to celebrate my victories more often. If my life is nothing but endless tasks without any satisfaction, I don’t think I’llContinue reading “Creator Journals 5/7/25”

Creator Journals 5/6/25

I feel a headache creeping up on me like the sun creeping up over the horizon. If I keep busy enough and refuse to look directly at the sun, maybe it will go away. My motivation isn’t as high as it could be today. I want to be making vast strides. I want to feelContinue reading “Creator Journals 5/6/25”

Creator Journals 5/4/25

Today is my birthday, so I’m going to make this quick. I like to compare people’s personalities to classical elements. I have a friend who is very stable, reliable and consistent, like earth. Me, on the other hand, I’m passionate, eager, warm, but my energy fluctuates a lot, so I see myself as a fire.Continue reading “Creator Journals 5/4/25”

Creator Journals 5/3/25

I’m once again facing the intense desire of the void, the call to stop writing and never write again. I know I must resist this call. If I’m ever going to get anywhere meaningful, or, get where I want to go, I’m going to have to write, keep writing, and not stop writing. Sometimes IContinue reading “Creator Journals 5/3/25”

Creator Journals 5/1/25

I took matters into my own hands and decided to make my own cover using Canva. It was really important to me that my book cover match a certain vibe that I had in my head, and that it have the right set of colors. I’ve been told I’m a synesthesiac before. This book isContinue reading “Creator Journals 5/1/25”

Creator Journals 4/28/25

I’ll be real, I’d rather be playing video games right now. It’s a beautiful day out. It’s a perfect day to play video games and stare out the window at the sun-soaked apartment complex. That’s one of my struggles as a writer. It isn’t so much that I’m lazy and like to put things off,Continue reading “Creator Journals 4/28/25”

Creator Journals 4/26/25

Last night, my wife showed me Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Ian Fleming wrote that (Truly Scrumptious is a Bond girl). It was a hell of a movie. Early on, Dick Van Dyke, a crazed inventor, is trying to make money so he can buy his children a broken car. So he goes around town tryingContinue reading “Creator Journals 4/26/25”

Edreimlecheth’s First Christmas (P3 of 5)

Chapter 3 -Edreimlecheth I had a familiar sinking feeling in my chest, salted with just a hint of burgeoning rage. I was alone now. Sareash and the rest had all left me here alone in this place. It stunk of tree needles. “Happy holiday.” I said to myself, loud enough to get a side-eye fromContinue reading “Edreimlecheth’s First Christmas (P3 of 5)”

Edreimlecheth’s First Christmas (P1 of 5)

This is a holiday vignette set in the world of The Kingdom’s Disdain. It takes place between the events of The Nature of the Beast and the upcoming novel Hounds of Ruin. It’s just a little slice-of-life segment I pieced together. I enjoyed writing it, and I hope you enjoy reading it! Happy holidays, whether you areContinue reading “Edreimlecheth’s First Christmas (P1 of 5)”
