Job Hunt: Light at the End of the Tunnel
I’ve been job hunting for 9 months now and I am hoping that is finally coming to a close. I’ve been able to make some progress past the initial round of interviews for a job. I should hear back about one this week, and then I also got referred for two more. Being out of…

Comic Book and Video Game Progressing
So as I’ve mentioned before, I’m working on an indie video game and an indie comic book. For the game, we are working on finalizing plot details for our third act. For the comic, I have partnered with a comic book artist to pitch “Hazard” to comic book companies. It may seem like a long…

The Next Journey: Comic Books
I’ve shared previously how I am still querying to get an agent for my book. However, I also shared that after a particular query (which was filled with praise but still said something was missing) I decided that I needed to look into other ways to get published. That is why I started to look…

Self-Publishing Thoughts
I self-published my second book, “The Garden of Abel” back in late March. Since then, there have been very few sales and little buzz.

Game Writing Course Complete
Game writing course is all wrapped up. It was a great experience and I was happy with the feedback I got on the final assignment. I got a lot of very encouraging feedback from Adrian Ropp, who was the lead writer for “Hogwarts Legacy.” Breaking into video games as a writer seems tough. Most of…

Anansi Revamp
The revamp should be done by mid-July at the latest. I have some ideas for how I can incorporate some scenes from the novel into this second draft of the screenplay. Maybe I end up reworking the novel after if I like the changes enough.

First month of self-publishing
The Garden of Abel has had one month up on Amazon’s ebook store. It didn’t exactly take the world by storm but it has more readers than it did when it was posted on my site. I’ve also been able to make (a little) money off the sales. As I’ve mentioned in previous blog posts…

The Garden of Abel
As I shared in my last blog post, I self-published one of my novels. “The Garden of Abel” was the second book I wrote, and is now the first to be published in any form. The support I’ve received from family and friends has been great so far, and I’m grateful to have that. I…

The Garden of Abel: Self-published my first book
So any readers will know that “The Garden of Abel” was on my site a while back. I have now deleted the entries and have an ebook for $9.99. The Garden of Abel Ebook I have always been hesitant to self-publish anything, but the recent rejection I received — where there was a ton of…
