    Well, not so lonely, just rather neglected. My blogging has left much to be desired, but then, to be honest, so has my ability to add to my word count for Steel-Toed Blues. In the past month, I’ve spent a large amount of time traveling for the Army Reserve, doing Army Reserve things, traveling home,…

Fast forward a few years through the ever-changing, entropy-laden atmosphere of the modern publishing industry, and Michael found himself in a position that may be familiar to more…

    As we swing into summer, I’ve put up a giveaway for my second novel, Cold Run. (In case among the three or four regular readers of this blog, I have one who hasn’t yet read it…) Like Soft Target, it’s set in the cold and dark of winter, which makes it the perfect foil for…

    …in with the new. In the next few weeks, the site may be up and down for maintenance. Basically, I’m trying to tie together the core parts of my writing and coaching business, streamline the inner pages, and pop it all back up in a visually consistent and easy to navigate manner. And by “I”,…
