What's New

New year and I still don't do resolutions.

The problem with resolutions is most folks tend to never succeed. Majority of them fail within the first month. I prefer to set goals for myself.

Some may be small goals, like updating my website at the start of year to what kind of publications I want to accomplish.

The key thing is they need to be actionable and doable goals.

Otherwise, what good are they?

On a positive note, was able to donate $25 to the MS Society for my wife. It was a portion of the money I earned through book sales and my Patreon. The goal is to double it next year.

Updated my 2026 plans a bit.

I will be releasing a short story, "Substitute" later this month. Will be partnering with Ruth Anna Evans on the cover.

Make sure to check out my Works in Progress page for all updates.

The 2026 Reading Challenge is under way and can follow my progress on GoodReads. Decided to up the challenge a bit from last year.

  • "Folkloric: Tales of Folklore & Horror" by Felix Blackwell

  • "Megalodon Gulf" by Sam M. Phillips

  • "Ripples of Fate" by Nannette Kreitzman

On the entertainment front in January, I am a tad curious about the movie "Iron Lung" coming out at the end of the month. Seems interesting though it might be bomb due to reasons.

Are there any movies coming out in January that you are itching to see?

My son and I were a bit disappointed to hear the Winter Bash in Royal Oak is no more. It was combined with the Holiday Market in Dec. We were looking forward to it, now we will have to wait until Dec.

The winter months can be rough on folks, make sure to keep those connections and forge new ones as they come.
