Summary:This novel is set in a remote indigenous mining town in Cape York Australia. The book is a coming of age story about a young women, Sam Tucker, and her friends based on actual events. For Sam's 18th birthday, rather than another backyard party gatecrashed by others, she convinces her closest friends to going camping on the bank of a wild river and the events that unfold change their lives forever.
I wanted it to be based around characters that secondary students (13 - 18) could relate to and with action and adventure that would be interesting and leave them wanting to know more.

Summary:This is a fairytale like none other you have ever read. It is intended to expose, invert and reverse the myriad of intolerant, oppressive, degrading ideologies attached to historical fairytale narratives such as the 'Grimm's Fairy Tales' collection and their Disney reenactments. It is part satire and part intense drama. I would very much like to hear what people think of it. Chapters: |

Summary:I decided to be brave and post the lyrics to a song I recently wrote. I know the timing is off and the words don’t always flow the way I’d like them to flow. But, I’m too close to it and can’t see what or where or how I can make the changes it needs to make it work. So, I’m hoping you can give me some ideas. All comments are welcome.
It is done in a ballad form. I hear Willie Nelson’s voice in my head when I sing it. Hopefully, that will give you an idea of the “sound” and flow I’m looking for. It is a story of theft and deception and then victory and redemption.

Summary:This is a story about the time in March 2007 that four tornadoes converged on my parent's farm and the destruction, devastation, trauma, loss, and sorrow it brought to our family. It is also about the sense of hope, help, growth, triumph, strength, family, friends, faith, and community that came along with it. There's even a weird sort of humor thrown in here and there . . . I hope you enjoy it. Unfortunately, due to the number of natural disasters we have going on in our country (and the world over)in recent years, it is a story we share with too many others . . .Chapters: |

Summary:As some of you know by now, my wife is extremely ill and will never get better. She has almost died three times in the past 15 months. Her entire family is in Bakersfield, California. She is here in St. Louis. She depends on me for just about everything. Sometimes it leaves me overwhelmed and I doubt my abilities to give all that she needs.
I wrote this originally as a song last year and had it recorded this past August. It was a cathartic process for me. I have slightly modified it for this poetic version. As far as feedback, any comments you would care to make are welcomed. Thanks for reading.Chapters: |

Summary:I blame Cynthia A., hahaha. Her yummy "cake poem" compelled me to pull this old poem up from the dusty old journals I keep. OK, so I'm being dramatic. I went a few pages back on my web community forum and pulled it up. Hope it's to your liking.Chapters: |
