Creating Imaginative Worlds with Writing
Two recent Yahoo News reports describe President Trump firing bipartisan oversight commissioners and launching a sweeping attempt to expand presidential authority. These aren't isolated events -- they're coordinated steps in a structural takeover. The Big Steal isn't about ballots. It's about the theft of accountability itself.
Yale professor Samuel Moyn argues that America has quietly become a gerontocracy — a nation where the past governs the future. This generational imbalance explains our political stagnation, cultural resentment, and the growing tension between what America has been and what it needs to become.
A darker, deeper second edition of Pounds of Flesh arrives October 6 — featuring expanded scenes, richer horror, and a more emotionally grounded journey through Jacoby’s bargain with XIC. This post reveals the new cover and announces the updated release.
No One Preys on Me arrives October 6 — a dark, atmospheric story of survival in a fractured world where the vulnerable are hunted and only the defiant endure. Meet Luka Hill, a boy who never asked to fight but refuses to be prey. This is the official cover reveal and release announcement for my upcoming dystopian novel.
America is drowning in engineered lies — not accidental mistakes, but deliberate distortions designed to confuse, divide, and control. As political rhetoric revives old fears about “communism,” the real threat isn’t ideology at all. It’s corruption, propaganda, and the growing machinery of misinformation that shapes what millions believe. This piece exposes how fear is weaponized, how truth is manipulated, and why silence is no longer an option.
I grew up in an America where July 4th meant unity — fireworks, parades, and pride. Today, my daughter grows up in a country where patriotism feels divided, debated, and uncertain. This reflection explores how the meaning of Independence Day has changed across generations, how our shared identity has fractured, and why understanding our history matters more than ever. It’s a call to celebrate honestly, think deeply, and remember what freedom truly means.
America is tightening — not through laws or wars, but through exhaustion. The American Squeeze explores the quiet pressure crushing ordinary people beneath noise, corruption, and fatigue. It’s a reflection on a nation losing its voice, and a glimpse into the world of my upcoming novel Silent Nation, where silence itself becomes survival.
Two new epics are complete: POX III, the explosive finale to the POX saga, and Sea Story, a mythic ocean novel filled with mystery and emotion. Both first drafts are finished, setting up a major double release in 2027.
Alien‑Squatch War began as my lifelong fascination with Sasquatch and extraterrestrials — the mysteries people often laughed at — and grew into a high‑stakes sci‑fi thriller about quiet invasion, Native lore, and the courage to resist when the sky is listening. This book is my tribute to the legends, the unknown, and the real people who inspired its characters.
This Father’s Day brought more than reflection — it brought a beautiful surprise that changed our family forever and reminded me how quickly life can fill with new blessings.
