Welcome

Howdy.

I would like to extend my thanks for your visit and invite you to look around my website.

 I write. And I love sci-fi and fantasy.
 
I live in the expanse of the Mid-West with my large family. Only recently have I discovered the giants and founders of the science fiction and fantasy genres. Now I write incorporating the spirit of the classics with my own twists. Pulp fiction as well as the SciFi giants of the 80s and 90s are my exemplars. Most importantly, I want my readers to have a fun ride.

Tales from Crusader One to Support Veterans

Currently, my stories involve the US Military.  It's a huge part of the universe I built, be it the branches of the Army, Navy, or Marines, or even a made up branch like NASA.  I've got protagonists like Ishmael, Pummel, and Justice, and I have antagonists like Jensen and all the spies, traitors, and defectors.  You can see my point here. There's a reason we say that those in the military serve (or have served).  Presently, the US Military is an all-volunteer force, which means that people like me (and quite possibly you) never have to enlist.  Others have taken the burden to fight in wars, battles, combats, and skirmishes while I can sit here comfortably and type this on my phone.  This is in stark contrast to conscription, or a draft based way, to fill the ranks of the military (though this is what Vietnam Vets had to deal with, among other hardships like disrespectful protesters). I grew up seeing soldiers return home.  I witnessed the Wal...

The Power of Forgiveness

A classic atheist meme has made its rounds once again. As usual, a whole host of people inserted their opinions. Most of these had to deal with the concept of God's forgiveness. However, these quips and analyses were incomplete. God's forgiveness is a subset of His power and glory . If you are a Christian, you are well aware that humanity is mired in sin and disobedience. We're born this way. Each day we disobey God, even when we try otherwise. Since we commit these offenses towards God*, He alone has the power to absolve our sins. This is done through the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ, His son. How much power involves forgiveness? The Bible states that God will remember our sins no more (Heb 8:12). The meme plays to our sense of justice, that a child's murderer shouldn't receive the same ultimate reality as its victim. But justice belongs to God - our standard of justice should be measured against His definition, not ours. In this current life, w...

The Successor to A Spark in the Darkness

Alright, so my book has been making headway into the markets, people are reading it and such.  Without giving any spoilers away, you readers may be wondering if there is another book in the works.  I have been writing the direct successor to A Spark in the Darkness  comprising of short stories to help build the world in a way that leaves the reader more engaged with the (actual) New World that which is Ceres. And I don't want to give away anything at the moment, so I will just say to expect the Crusaders that you know and love, but also be prepared for new characters, challenges, and...points of view.  With that, I am done with the hints for now.  Follow on Twitter for updates in the moment...I may end up dropping more hints as to what to expect.
