SOPA and PIPA aren’t just bad news for internet companies and creators, they’re bad news for us all and disastrous for this country. SOPA and PIPA are the wrong way to combat internet piracy. They’re the digital equivalent of fixing a roach problem by burning down the whole building. So I decided to write my representatives in government and let them...

Learn MoreDue to various delays the production time of the Daemon in the Mist visual novel is taking a bit longer than expected. Books bring worlds to life through word but translating that world into a visual medium is a whole different thing entirely. When I wrote Daemons in the Mist I never imagined that I would then have to visually create the world of The Marked Ones....

Learn MoreI have dyslexia; in fact I have all three forms. Bet most of you didn't even know there were three. The most common one is the reading one, that's the one most people are familiar with it's also the one most kids have. (Me, not so much with that anymore.) Another one is the writing one. (This is the one I have the worst.) When I write sometimes I move letters or words around out of order. And no matter how many times I read it back half the time it will still look correct to me because my brain is auto correcting it for me.

Learn More"It is my great strength that gets me where I want to go but it is my flaws, my weaknesses, that made me who I am." Sometimes I am so determined in my need to succeed that I forget just how much I have accomplished and just how far I have come. I don't like to dwell on things I can't change or things that I have no control over. Instead just keeping moving forward towards the goals I set for myself. Even as a child I never liked to compete against others, it made me feel sick inside. Instead I always just competed against myself. And I think it's that kind of drive that gets people farther in the end.

This is because due to an overwhelmingly booked schedule, we pushed production back on this project by about two months. But this is what did happened in the last two months: The Kindle and Nook editions of Daemons in the Mist were released. The print edition of...
