I discovered Graham Plowman's absolutely fantastic and haunting music inspired by the works of H.P. Lovecraft looking for resources and material for short short story I'm currently writing that also is based off Lovecraft's ideas. After hearing only a few tracks, I knew that I had to download all three of his albums. They have... Continue Reading →
WIP-it Wednesday: October 11th, 2017
Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! This weekend was half catch-up and half writing. The catch-up part was directly related to the non-writing weekend I had last week. It started off with my wife and I spending most of Saturday working on or researching details related...

Great and dreadful Cthulhu is without doubt Lovecraft’s most recognized creation, and many who are only casually aware of his work may think he’s the end-all and be-all of his work.

WIP-it Wednesday: October 4th, 2017
Time for a new weekly writer’s roundup of my works-in-progress and those ready to read! As a writer, I deal with spaces every day. They are the gaps I place between my words so that each one stands out on its own with legibility and respect. One could even say that it’s in between the... Continue Reading →
