Getting closer.
Working diligently on edits in order to get my next book out before Fall.
How to know you’ve arrived.
And hating what you’ve written.
48 years ago today.
Remembering the late Rod Serling today, on the anniversary of his death. He was the single greatest influence on my writing.
I may watch a little Twilight Zone tonight in his honor.
I’m setting off smoke alarms over here.
“Edgy” Christian Fiction.
Me when I find profanity in the Christian fiction I’m reading.
This will be the last time I publicly share this video.
So watch it now or forever hold your peace.

Quotes: We have lost the art to astonish.
Instead, we cater to the lowest common denominator with the profane, vulgar, and obscene, and dare call it art.

America’s non-readers.
This article contains some very interesting facts regarding the demographics of non-readers in America.
Most surprising is that 28% of those over age 50 haven’t read a book in the past year, compared to only 20% spanning the ages 18 to 49. But then again, if you’ve ever been to a nursing home then you know that the TVs are all on and the bookshelves are usually covered in a layer of undisturbed dust. Beside eyesight being an issue in the elderly, I don’t have an answer for why over a quarter of older Americans don’t read.
Overall, this article is worth the short read . . . unless, of course, you’re a non-reader.
