Review – The Badge of Humanity The Badge of Humanity is the upshot conclusion story in the Obolonks trilogy. It moves the action into more of the Peri-Dave romance. But it also follows to showing how she, Dave, and Tommy finally solve the murders. Just like that universe’s society is tripartite, so are the three […]
Review – The Polymer Beat The Polymer Beat moves the Obolonk action toward not just the robots which have an overall story line – it also explores main character Peri Martin’s romance with spy Dave Shepherd.

And consider, e. g. when, say, a main character named Jennifer reveals she’s a zombie (or whatever your story is about), then there has […]
Background – Starting a Piece Starting can be fraught with stress and worry. You can, at times, wonder if what you’re doing is worthwhile at all. But don’t worry; it is. One year I created a kind of web. I had the main character and put her name in a circle on paper. Then I […]
For the fourth quarter 2018, I wrote well and often! It was my sixth NaNoWriMo. The novel I chose to write was The Real Hope of the Universe.
Are You Having Happy Holidays? Well, happy holidays from me! So thanks to the fine folks at Canva, there’s a new holiday image and I’ve got to say I really love it. Plus I was getting a little tired of reusing the older holiday post. Hence here’s something new which I hope will be a […]
