It had the unfortunate effect of making my to-read list even longer, but the benefits of reading some incredible works far outweigh this. One such author is Dan Buri. We connected through social media, chatted, and had found a common language even though our […]
I’ve been busy lately, working of the first draft of In Numina – the second full-length Felix mystery. Which means that whenever I have time to write, I concentrate on that. The mind of a writer, however, is a funny thing. Ideas come and go out of nowhere. Some of them can be saved for […]
No, not Lady Gaga. Queen. The rock band. What’s wrong with this generation? Anyway. Radio is not dead. And to prove it, I was recently been on two radio shows! First is Jessie’s POV on 98K.
