New Release: Dagger of Deception

In the World of Anaxantis… When I first started writing The Invisible Chains, I had a fairly linear story in mind.

Lee-Lack’s Gold and Other Stories

It has been some time since my last post here. There’s a reason for that. I’ve had pneumonia. It takes your breath away. Not in the usual, figurative sense, but quite literally. It also sucks the joy of life out of you. I’d like to say it’s all behind me, but the truth is that […]
